The scatterplot below shows the relationship between weight measured in kilograms and hip girth measured in centimeters from the data described in Exercise 8.13.

(a) Describe the relationship between hip girth and weight.

(b) How would the relationship change if weight was measured in pounds while the units for hip girth remained in centimeters?

Data from Exercise 8.13

Researchers studying anthropometry collected body girth measurements and skeletal diameter measurements, as well as age, weight, height and gender for 507 physically active individuals. The scatterplot below shows the relationship between height and shoulder girth (over deltoid muscles), both measured in centimeters.
