Researchers hoping to find ways to make a good estimate of
a person's body fat percentage immersed 20 male subjects
in water, then measured their waists and recorded their
weights. The results are shown in the accompanying table. The
linear model used to predict % Body Fat from Weight has
R2=51.3% and se=6.8%. Would a model that uses the person's
Waist size be able to predict the % Body Fat more accurately
than one that uses Weight? Create and analyze that model.
Write the equation of the regression line. Select the correct
choice below and fill in the answer boxes within your choice.
(Round to two decimal places as needed.)
