Last updated: 7/17/2022

Suppose that a regression equation for the relationship between y = weight (pounds) and x = height (inches) for men aged 18 to 29 years old is expressed with the following formula. Average weight = -250 + 6(Height) (a) Estimate the average weight for men in this age group who are 70 inches tall. (b) What is the slope of the regression line for average weight and height? Complete a sentence that interprets this slope in terms of how much average weight changes when height is increased by one inch. Average weight increases pounds for each 1-inch increase in height.
