For a year with 850,000 (x = 85) registered boats in Florida, identify the 95% prediction interval estimate of the number of manatee fatalities resulting from encounters with boats. Write a statement interpreting that interval?
Refer to the display obtained by using the paired data consisting of Florida registered boats (tens of thousands) and numbers of manatee deaths from encounters with boats in Florida for different recent years (from Data Set 10 in Appendix B). Along with the paired boat , manatee sample data, Stat- Crunch was also given the value of 85 (tens of thousands) boats to be used for
predicting manatee fatalities.
