  Just confirming, does predict function with interval="prediction" option 
gives prediction interval or tolerance interval?. Sorry for reposting this 
question. 
   
  Thanks in advance

  Sorry, I think I may have mislead you; the documentation describes these 
rather ambiguously as "prediction (tolerance) intervals", but having done some 
comparisons with other software I believe they are what most of us call 
prediction intervals after all!

I find prediction interval.?
   
  Thanx in advance.

  Thanks for the quick reply. 
  Just confirming, does predict(s.lm,data.frame(x=30000),interval="prediction") 
gives prediction interval or tolerance interval? 
   
  Thanks

  1. How do I construct 95% prediction interval for new x values, for example - 
x = 30000?
  2. How do I construct 95% confidence interval?

  my dataframe is as follows :

  >dt

  structure(list(y = c(26100000, 
60500000, 16200000, 30700000, 70100000, 57700000, 46700000, 8600000,
10000000, 61800000, 30200000, 52200000, 71900000, 55000000, 12700000
), x = c(108000, 136000, 35000,
77000, 178000, 150000, 126000, 24000, 28000, 214000, 108000, 
190000, 308000, 252000, 71000)), .Names = c("y",
"x"), class = "data.frame", row.names = c("1",
"2", "3", "4", "5", "6", "7", "8", "9", "10", "11", "12", "13", 
"14", "15"))

  my regression eqn is as below:

  > s.lm <- lm(y ~ x)

  Thanks in advance.
