Question

1.1. Given observations ($x_i$, $y_i$), $i = 1, \dots, n$, fit a quadratic polynomial regression model $y_i = f(x_i) + \epsilon_i$, where $f(x) = \alpha + \beta_1 x + \beta_2 x^2$. Construct a 95% confidence interval for $f(x)$ at a given $x$.

Step 1

We assume y_i = α + β1 x_i + β2 x_i^2 + ε_i, i = 1,...,n, with ε_i independent, mean 0 and variance σ^2. (For exact t-based CIs we assume ε_i ~ N(0,σ^2); for large n the normality assumption may be relaxed.) Show more…
