Question: A researcher wishes to determine if the number of hours (Y) a person exercises per week is related to their age (X). The data is shown below, and you can assume a well designed experiment was use to obtain the data.

Age (X): 18 22 26 32 35 38 52 59

Hours (Y): 10 8 5 2 4 3 1.5 1

Carry out a “complete” analysis using Simple Linear Regression and a 5% significance level. In addition use your results to estimate the average amount of exercise for a 29 year old person, and provide a 98% C.I. for your estimate. Remember in your analysis to discuss the pertinent results obtained.
