We have data on the lean body mass and resting metabolic rate for 10 women who are subjects in a study of dieting. Lean body mass, given in kilograms, is a person's weight leaving out all fat. Metabolic rate, in calories burned per 24 hours, is the rate at which the body consumes energy.

Body Mass values are:(38,37,40,29,52,16,29,36,52,39)

Metabolic Rates:(1200,1088,1179,826,1368,560,987,927,1260,1166)

Find the least-squares regression line for predicting metabolic rate from body mass.

What percentage of the variability in the metabolic rate can be explained by the body mass?
