In a study published in Medicine and Science in Sports and Exercise (volume 17, no. 2,page 189) the measurements of 252 men (ages 2281) are given. Of the 14measurements taken of each man, some have significant correlations and others dont.The partial table shown here lists only the first nine rows of the data.

Using your intuition, classify the following pairs as having a weak correlation amoderate correlation or a strong correlation. [Do this BEFORE you enter thedata into Excel and compute the correlation. Just use your own commonsense.](a) (weight, neck)(b) (weight, height)(c) (age, body fat)(d) (chest, hip)(e) (age, wrist)(f) (ankle, wrist)(g) (forearm, height)(h) (bicep, forearm)(i) (weight, body fat)(j) (knee, thigh)(k) (hip, abdomen)(l) (abdomen, hip)3. Now, use a technology tool to find the correlation coefficient for each pair in Exercise1. Compare your results with those obtained by intuition.4. Use a technology tool to find the regression line for each pair in Exercise 1 that hasa strong correlation.5. Use the results of Exercise 4 to predict the following:(a) The neck circumference of a man whose weight is 180 pounds.(b) The abdomen circumference of a man whose hip circumference is 100centimeters.6. Are there pairs of measurements that have stronger correlation coefficients than0.85? Use a technology tool and intuition to reach a conclusion.7.
