Question: Anthropologists often try to reconstruct information using partial human remains at burial sites. Fro instance, after finding a femur (thighbone) they may not want to predict how tall an individual was. An equation they use to do this is ŷ=61.4 + 2.4x, where ŷ is the predicted height and x is the length of the femur, both in centimeters.

  1. Identify the y-intercept and slope of the equation. Interpret the slope.
  2. A femur found at a particular site has length of 50 cm. What is the predicted height of the person who had that femur?
