Refer to Data Set 15 in Appendix B and determine the best regression equation that expresses the response variable (y) of time interval after an eruption in terms of one or more of the variables of duration, time interval before the eruption, and height of the eruption. Explain your choice.

Data Set 15: Old Faithful Geyser Measurements are from eruptions of the Old Faithful Geyser in Yellowstone National Park. Prediction errors are based on predicted times to the erup- tion, where a negative value corre- sponds to an eruption that occurred before the predicted time.
