Confidence interval for $ beta $ given only $hat{alpha}$ and $hat{beta}$ in linear regression












0












$begingroup$


Assuming that there is a correlation between the random variables X and Y, the line of regression was estimated based on 30 values $ (x_{i}, y_{i}) $(where 200 $leq$ x $leq$ 250 ) $:



$$ hat{y} = 6,206 + 0,029x $$



The question is if we can conclude that there is a correlation.



I know that we need to find the confidence interval for $ beta $



$$ ( hat{beta} - t_{n-2, a/2} s_{hat{beta}} , hat{beta} + t_{n-2,a/2}s_{hat{beta}} ) $$



and see if zero belongs to it.



But I think that we are not given enough data.



In what conclusions can we end up about the dependence of Y by X?

    From what you say, you certainly do need more information, such as the sample correlation or covariance between the $x_i$ and $y_i$ values, or the sample variances of each
