Question 1 (2 points) If we predict Y from X based solely

Question 1 (2 points) If we predict Y from X based solely from looking at the scatterplot and regression line, what Y value is associated with an X = 70? 23 22 21 20 19 18 15 Scatterplot of Y vs X 14 50 80 90 100 A) 20 B) 18.2 C) 17 D) 15 E) 23 Question 2 (2 points) You love fishing but are concerned at the levels of contaminants in fish in your local Kalamazoo River. As part of a study in monitoring levels of chemical contaminants in Carp fish in order to provide safe eating guidelines, you set about measuring levels of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) in 5 randomly sampled fish caught in the Kalamazoo River. Data are summarized in the table below.
