1 About how many inches are kids in this dataset expected to grow per year?
2 At that rate, if a child were 45" tall at age eight, how tall would you expect them to be at age twelve?
3 At that rate, if a ten-year-old were 55" tall, how tall would you expect them to have been at age 9?
4 Using the equation, how tall would you expect a seven-year-old child to be?
5 How many of the seven-year-olds in this sample are actually that height?
6 Using the equation, determine the expected height of someone who is…
7.5 years old | 13 years old | 6 years old | newborn | 90 years old |
---|---|---|---|---|
7 For which ages is this predictor function likely to be the most accurate? Why?
8 For which ages is this predictor function likely to be the least accurate? Why?
