We want to consider the correlation between heights of fathers and mothers and the heights of their sons. Refer to the Stat-Crunch display and answer the given questions or identify the indicated items. The display is based on Data Set 5 "Family Heights" in Appendix B.

A son will be born to a father who is 70 in. tall and a mother who is 60 in. tall. Use the multiple regression equation to predict the height of the son. Is the result likely to be a good predicted value? Why or why not?
