Question 18
The equation used to predict how tall a dog will be as an adult is ŷ=4.5 + 0.7×1 + 0.55×2, where x1 is the height of the mother and x2 is the height of the father. Use this equation to predict the height of a puppy whose mother is 45.2 inches tall and whose father is 41.6 inches tall.
A)59.02 inches
B)43.4 inches
C)54.52 inches
D)58.48 inches
Question 19
The equation used to predict how long it will take to receive a package through the mail is ŷ=0.5 + 0.02×1 + 0.85×2
days, where x1 is the distance to travel and x2 is the weight of the package. Use this equation to predict the how long it will take to receive a package that is 145 miles away and weighs 3.8 pounds.

B)74.4 days
C)16.1 days
D)123.8 days
Question 20
The equation used to predict how long a cold will last is ŷ=-1.8 + 0.09×1 + 3.2×2 – 1.9×3, where x1
is person’s temperature on the first day, x2 is number of people seen each day, and x3 is the amount of sleep the person gets. Use this equation to predict how long a cold will last with a temperature of 100.4 degrees, an average of 4 people seen each day, and 6 hours of sleep.
A)7.0 days
B)8.6 days
C)12.3 days
D)10.5 days
