The lengths (in centimeters) and girths (in centimeters) of 12 harbor seals

(a) x = 140 centimeters 

(b) x = 172 centimeters

(c) x = 164 centimeters 

(d) x = 158 centimeters

Find the equation of the regression line for the data. Then construct a scatter plot of the data and draw the regression line. (Each pair of variables has a significant correlation.) Then use the regression equation to predict the value of y for each of the x-values, if meaningful. If the x-value is not meaningful to predict the value of y, explain why not. If convenient, use technology.
