Question: The following table shows the data that you are going to study: Humerus height, (cm) Man height (cm) 31,0 167,1 33,9 173,2 37,1 183,8 29,3

The following table shows the data that you are going to study:

Humerus height, (cm) Man height (cm)
31,0 167,1
33,9 173,2
37,1 183,8
29,3 160,3
39,2 185,7
39,4 187,5
38,0 186,1
37,1 180,6
33,5 173,3
29,0 160,5
32,6 170,4
29,3 162,3
30,6 160,6
29,2 160,5
31,1 161,5

  • Use univariate statistics to analyze the length of the bones and the height of 15 of the people found.

  • Analyze the collected data to establish if there is a linear coincidence between the length of the bone and the height of a person, find the model and establish its accuracy.

Near this pit they found other bones that were classified by their type and gender only, the data is shown in the following table:

Nmero del hueso Gnero Tipo de Hueso

Longitud del hueso

(cm)

1 Femenino Fmur 39,5
2 Masculino Tibia 44,6
3 Femenino Hmero 33, 1
4 Masculino Fmur 51,6
5 Femenino Tibia 35,7
6 Masculino Hmero 37

  • Use the linear correlation model found to determine the estimate of the height of the corresponding person.

Interpretation

The relatives of ten disappeared people from the municipality have approached the group of doctors to find out if it is possible that their relatives are among the still unidentified remains, they provide data on the heights.

Base de Datos de Personas Desaparecidas
Nombre Estatura (cm)
NN Patricia 164
NN Dana 155
NN William 173
NN Ramiro 178
NN Carlos 180
NN Pedro 185
NN Mara 163
NN Luis 165
NN Carmen 150
NN Luisa 175

  • Use the line of best fit to find the length of the bone. Comparing it with the bones not yet recognized give a possible answer to the relatives.
