Manatees Use the listed boat>manatee data. In a year not included in the data below, there were 970,000 registered pleasure boats in Florida. Find the best predicted number of manatee fatalities resulting from encounters with boats. Is the result reasonably close to 79, which was the actual number of manatee fatalities?

Pleasure Boats 99 99 97 95 90 90 87 90 90 Manatee Fatalities 92 73 90 97 83 88 81 73 68 Regression and Predictions. Exercises 13–24 use the same data sets as Exercises 13–24 in Section 10-1. In each case, find the regression equation, letting the first variable be the predictor (x) variable. Find the indicated predicted value by following the prediction procedure summarized in Figure 10-5 on page 466.
