Question:
Two hundred and eighty boys completed a test that measures the distance that the subject can walk on a flat, hard surface in 6 minutes. For each age group shown in the table, the median distance walked by the boys in that age group is also given.
Age Group | Representative Age (Midpoint of Age Group) | Median Six-Minute Walk Distance (meters) |
---|---|---|
3–5 | 4 | 544.3 |
6–8 | 7 | 583.0 |
9–11 | 10 | 666.3 |
12–15 | 13.5 | 701.1 |
16–18 | 17 | 726.6 |
(b) Find the equation of the least-squares regression line that describes the relationship between median distance walked in 6 minutes and representative age. (Round your values to three decimal places.)
(c) Compute the five residuals. (Round your answers to three decimal places.)
Representative Age (x) | Residual |
