Here are the data: Another individual in the NEA data set has NEA increase equal to 144 calories and fat gain equal to 3.1 kg. With the regression line being , find the predicted value of fat gain for this individual and then calculate the residual. Give your answers in units of kg to one decimal place for the fat gain and to two decimal places for the residual. Fill in the blank: (Give your answer to 1 decimal place.) The predicted value of fat gain for this individual and its residual are
1) ____ kg and
2) ____ kg,
Respectively
