A state fisheries commission wants to estimate the number of bass caught in a given lake during a season in order to restock the lake with the appropriate number of young fish. The commission could get a fairly accurate assessment of the seasonal catch by extensive "netting sweeps" of the lake before and after a season, but this technique is much too expensive to be done routinely. Therefore, the commission samples a number of lakes and record the seasonal catch (thousands of bass per square mile of lake area) and size of lake (square miles). A simple linear regression was performed and the following R output obtained. Estimate Std. Error t value Pr(>|t|) (Intercept) size 2.5463 0.0667 0.4427 0.3672 5.7513 0.0000 0.1818 0.8578 Suppose a natural log transformation on seasonal catch was deemed necessary. Below is the least-squares regression equation: In () = 0.76 + 0.0914x. Predict the seasonal catch for the lake with lake area of 2.5 square miles. Round your answer to one decimal place. thousand
