Suppose IQ scores were obtained for 20 randomly selected sets of siblings. The 20 pairs of measurements yield x=104.18, y=105.25, r=0.892, P-value=0.000, and y=17.77+0.84x, where x represents the IQ score of the younger child. Find the best-predicted value of y given that the younger childhas an IQ of 108? The best-predicted value of y is?

Heights (cm) and weights (kg) are measured for 100 randomly selected adult males, and range from heights of 132 to 194 cm and weights of 38 to 150 kg. Let the predictor variable x be the first variable given. The 100 paired measurements yield x 167.75 cm, y=81.58 kg, r0.318, P.value = 0.001, and y-109 1.14x. Find the best predicted value of y (weight) given an adult male who is 184 cm tal, Use a 0.05 significance level. The best predicted value of y for an adult male who is 184 cm tall is kg. (Round to two decimal places as needed.)

Heights (cm) and weights (kg) are measured for 100 randomly selected adult males, and range from heights of 136 to 190 cm and weights of 39 to 150 kg. Let the predictor variable x be the first variable given. The 100 paired measurements yiel x= 167.51 cm, y = 81.36 kg,r= 0.232, P-value = 0.020, and y = - 103+ 1.13x. Find the best predicted value of y (weight) given an adult male who is 153 cm tall. Use a 0.01 significance level. The best predicted value of y for an adult male who is 153 cm tall is kg. (Round to two decimal places as needed.)
