Anthropologists use a linear model that relates the femur length to height. The modelallows an anthropologist to determine the height of individual when only a partialskeleton is found with femur (shown below). Find the model by analyzing the data onfemur length and height for the eight males given in the table below.Femur Length (cm) Height (cm)50.1 178.548.3 173.645.2 164.844.7 163.744.5 168.342.7 165.039.5 155.438.0 155.8(a) Make a scatter plot of the data.(b) Find and graph a linear function (Regression line) that models the data.(c) An anthropologists find a femur of length 58 cm. How tall was the person?

- A real estate agent has developed a linear model for the price of a house, P, in dollars in terms of the area, A, in square feet for the homes in a certain neighborhood. The data set had areas ranging from 1,000 square feet to 4,500 square feet. Would predicting the prices of a home that is 4,900 square feet be interpolation or extrapolation? Explain. Using the model to predict the price of a 4,900 square foot home is extrapolation because 4,900 square feet is outside the range of the areas in the data. Using the model to predict the price of a 4,900 square foot home is interpolation because 4,900 square feet is inside the range of the areas in the data.

- A ✩ The box-and-whisker plot below represents the length, in inches, of 20 trout caught at Raystown Lake in one weekend. 4466619/varlants/5145485/take/5/ 10 Length of Trout (inches) H 15 20 H 25 30 How many trout were less than 20 inches long? Hint: 20 inches is the upper quartile of the box-and- whisker plot. So, 75% of the trout were less than 20 inches long. To find the answer: multiply the percentage (75%) x 20 (the number of inches) We use 75% because that is the Q3 in the data. 25% would be our Q1 and 50% is the median (or Q2).arrow_forwardConstruct a scatter plot of the data in the table AND create a linear model. 2 10 12 10 14 14 16 18 18 24 a EGO (99- 2.arrow_forwardBuyroooarrow_forward
