A sample of 10 adult men gave the following data on their heights and weights. Height (inches) X 62 62 63 65 66 67 68 68 70 72 Weight (pounds) Y 120 140 130 150 142 130 135 175 149 168 1) Find r (correlation coefficient). Interpret the value of r in the context of this problem. 2) Find the coefficient of determination, r2. Explain what it means in the context of this problem. 3) Predict the weight of a man whose height is 60 inches. 4) Predict the height of a man whose weight is 160 pounds.

Correlation and Regression: A sample of 10 adult men gave the following data on their heights and weights. Height (inches) X: 62, 62, 63, 65, 66, 67, 68, 68, 70, 72 Weight (pounds) Y: 120, 140, 130, 150, 142, 130, 135, 175, 149, 168 a. (2 points) Generate the scatter plot of this data and graph the regression line in your plot. Include a picture of this graph and explain your impression of how well the line fits the data. b. (1 point) State the equation of the regression line. c. (2 points) Find r (correlation coefficient). Interpret the value of r in the context of this problem. d.
