The volume of oxygen consumed (in liters per minute) while a person is at rest and while a person is exercising (running
on a treadmill) were both measured for 50 subjects. The goal is to determine if the volume of oxygen consumed during
aerobic exercise can be estimated from the amount consumed at rest. The results are plotted below.

Volume Consumed at Rest
In this study, the explanatory variable is:
O the instrument used to measure the volume of oxygen consumed.
the volume of oxygen consumed at rest.
the volume of oxygen consumed while running.
either variable-it doesn't matter which is considered the response.
