Question:
You are conducting a study testing whether a child’s age is a good predictor of his or her height. You have collected the following data from a random sample of seven children:
Age (months) | Height (cm) |
---|---|
34 | 77 |
50 | 95 |
63 | 109 |
59 | 99 |
53 | 101 |
44 | 102 |
40 | 94 |
Perform a regression of height (dependent variable) on age (independent variable).
What is the Y-intercept of the regression line?
52.81
24.73
59.56
58.37
39.07
What is the slope (beta) of the regression line?
1.52
1.31
0.78
1.44
1.61
The regression model predicts that a 5-year-old child (60 months) would be approximately tall.
