A study is conducted on the correlation between petal width and petal length of a flower species. The regression line is calculated to be y = 1.687x + 1.564 where x represents the petal width in centimeters and y represents the petal length in centimeters. Predict the petal length of a flower of this species that has a petal width of 1.24 centimeters. Round answer to three places past the decimal.

Step 1
So, we replace x with 1.24 in the equation y = 1.687x + 1.564. Show more…

The famous iris dataset (the first sheet of the spreadsheet linked above) was first published in 1936 by Ronald Fisher. The dataset contains 50 samples from 3 iris species: setosa, virginia, and versicolor. Four features are measured, all in cm: sepal length, sepal width, petal length, and petal width. What is the equation for the least square regression line where the independent or predictor variable is petal length and the dependent or response variable is petal width for iris setosa? Y= ? X + ? What is the predicted petal width for iris setosa for a flower with a petal length of 6.12? ? cm
