Elementary Statistics Unit 4 : Examination Problem 3 An Anthropology professor measured the height (in cm) and the femur length (in mm) for a sample of female subjects. The resulting measurements are listed below Femur Length 410.9 426.2 400.3 406.0 452.3 424.2 425.4 Height 156.3 161.4 150.9 152.4 165.7 153.9 157.2 (a) Determine the linear regression model that will best predict the height of a female based on the length of her femur. Lin Ry ( ax + 6 ) L, , Le = 0. 3 /4 x + 25,756 (b) How well does the linear regression model fit this sample data? 2 2 0,94 The linear regression model fute this scruple jala as the coefficie of diefuntutun ( rihe o.'94 is close to 1 (c) If the Anthropology professor identified some skeletal remains as belonging to a female with a femur length of 416.3 mm, predict the height of this female when she was alive. * = 416. 3, y = 0. 3/4 ( 416, 3 ) + 25, 756 = 156. 4742 The Anthroplay professor identified save skickbul veried. the gurtended toeight of this demrule when she was alive is approx 156, 5 cm Page 3
