Chapter 12.1, Problem 3PB
Predicting maximum bench strength in males For the Male Athlete Strength data file on the book’s website, the prediction equation
- a. Find the predicted maxBP for a male athlete with a repBP of 35, which was one of the highest repBP values.
- b. Find the predicted maxBP for a male athlete with a repBP of 0, which was the lowest repBP value.
- c. Interpret the y-intercept. Use the slope to describe how predicted maxBP changes as repBP increases from 0 to 35.

A model for the men’s 100-meter freestyle record times in seconds is given by
y = (38,504.4888 + 44.37530536x^2)/(1 + x + x^2)
where x = 0 represents 1900. The model and the data points are shown in the graph below. Use this model to predict a reasonable record for a man to swim 100 meters in the year 2000. Explain how you determined your answer.
The amount of water discharged by the Davao River has changed over time in roughly a straight-line pattern. A regression line for predicting water discharged (in cubic kilometer) during a given year is predicted discharged = -7792 + (4.226 X year).How much (on average) does the volume of water increase with each passing year?
