Question

Transcribed Image Text:28. Bone Length Research performed at NASA, led by
Dr. Emily R. Morey-Holton, measured the lengths of the
right humerus and right tibia in 11 rats that were sent to
space on Spacelab Life Sciences 2. The data on page 175
were collected.
(a) Draw a scatter diagram of the data treating length of the
right humerus as the independent variable.
(b) Based on the scatter diagram, do you think that there is
a linear relation between the length of the right humerus
and the length of the right tibia?
(c) Use a graphing utility to find the line of best fit relating
length of the right humerus and length of the right
tibia.
(d) Predict the length of the right tibia on a rat whose right
humerus is 26.5 millimeters (mm).
