Predicting Height Use the foot lengths and heights from the preceding exercise to find the best predicted height of a male who has a foot length of 28 cm. Would the result be helpful to police crime scene investigators in trying to describe the male?

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.
