Chapter 10, Problem 10.4.13RE
(Opt.) A study found a significant relationship among a person’s years of experience on a particular job x1, the number of workdays missed per month x2, and the person’s age y. The regression equation is y′ = 12.8 + 2.09x1 + 0.423x2. Predict a person’s age if he or she has been employed for 4 years and has missed 2 workdays a month.

A biologist wants to predict the height of male giraffes, y, in feet, given their age, x1, in years, weight, x2, in pounds, and neck length, x3, in feet. She obtains the multiple regression equation yˆ=7.36+0.00895x1+0.000426x2+0.913x3. Predict the height of a 12-year-old giraffe that weighs 3,100 pounds and has a 7-foot-long neck, rounding to the nearest foot.
The number of hours 13 students spent studying for an exam and their scores on that test are described by the regression equation ŷ = 7.350x + 34.617. What is the predicted score if the student spent 6.5 hours studying?
