Question 1045334: The equation used to predict the total body weight (in pounds) of a female athlete at a certain school is ModifyingAbove y with caret equals negative 111 plus 2.99 x 1 plus 1.68 x 2, where x1 is the female athlete's height (in inches) and x2 is the female athlete's percent body fat, measured as x2%. Use the multiple regression equation to predict the total body weight for a female athlete who is 70 inches tall and has 23% body fat.
The predicted total body weight for a female athlete who is 70 inches tall and has 23% body fat is? (Round to the nearest tenth as needed.) Answer by robertb(5830) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! y =
===> y = -111 + 2.99*70 + 1.68*23 = 136.94, or 136.9 pounds.
(The y variable was meant to have a caret on top of it.)
