Question 1064725: The equation used to predict the total body weight​ (in pounds) of a female athlete at a certain school is ^y = -121+2.91x1+2.09x2, 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 67 inches tall and 22% body fat.
The predicted total body weight for a female athlete who is 67 inches tall and has 22% body fat is ? pounds.

-----
y = -121+2.91*67 + 2.09*0.22 = 74.43
