The U.S Department of Transportation and Safety performed an analysis to determine safe driving speeds. To obtain information about the safe driving speed, it analyzed data from multiple countries comparing the maximum allowed speed limit to the observed death rate. The analysis revealed the following:

Refer to the Minitab output below to answer questions A through G.
Regression Equation

Death rate (per 100 million vehicles = -0.535979 + 0.0789418 Speed limit (miles per hour)

Coefficients

Term Coef SE Coef T P 95% CI
Constant -0.535979 2.34352 -0.22871 0.825 (-5.94014, 4.86818)
Speed limit (miles per hour) 0.078942 0.03849 2.05106 0.074 (-0.00981, 016770)

Summary of Model
