Question
The systolic blood pressure of individuals is thought to be related to both age and weight. Let the systolic blood pressure, age, and weight be represented by the variables x1x2, and x3, respectively. Suppose that Minitab was used to generate the following descriptive statistics, correlations, and regression analysis for a random sample of 15 individuals.

Regression Analysis
 

The regression equation is
 

x1 = 0.883 + 1.257x2 + 0.871x
