Question
Researchers are interested in predicting the height of a child based on the heights of their mother
and father. Data were collected, which included height of the child ( height), height of the mother (
mothersheight ), and height of the father (fathersheight ). The initial analysis used the heights of the
parents to predict the height of the child (all units are inches). The results of the analysis, a multiple
regression, are presented below.
