Describe in detail the data you would like to obtain to test the various submodels supporting Model (2.21). How would you go about collecting the data?

Data from model (2.21)

where k5 = k₂+k₄. Note that Model (2.21) suggests variations in weight of a higher order than the first power of h. If the model is valid, then taller people will indeed have a difficult time satisfying the linear rules given earlier. At the moment, however, our judgment can be only qualitative because we have not verified our submodels. Some ideas on how to test the model are discussed in the problem set. Furthermore, we have not placed any relative significance on the higher-order terms occurring in Equation (2.21). In the study of statistics,
