The volume (in cubic feet) of a black cherry tree can be modeled by the equation y=-51.3 +0.4x, + 5.1x, where x, is the tree's height (in feet) and x, is the tree's diameter (in inches). Use the multiple regression equation for the values of the independent variables. predict the y-values X, =71, x2 =8.9 The predicted volume is cubic feet. (Round to one decimal place as needed.)

Question
The volume (in cubic feet) of a black cherry tree can be modeled by the equation y = - 51.3 +0.4x, + 5.1x2, where x, is the tree's height (in feet) and x, is the tree's diameter (in inches). Use the multiple regression equation to predict the y-values
for the values of the independent variables.
x, = 71, x2 = 8.9
The predicted volume is cubic feet.
(Round to one decimal place as needed.)
