Answer

$s_{b_1}=0.150$

Work Step by Step

$s_e=0.494$ (item (b)) To find $s_x$: Using the EXCEL, enter the "Right Humerus" values in column A. In A12 enter "=STDEV.S(A1:A11)" $s_x=1.041$ $s_{b_1}=\frac{s_e}{\sqrt {∑(x_i-x ̅)^2}}=\frac{s_e}{\sqrt {n-1}s_x}$ (see note on page 684) $s_{b_1}=\frac{0.494}{\sqrt {11-1}\times1.041}=0.150$
