5.2 93.7

5.2 84.7

10.0 100.0

4. 7 42.5

4.8 96.4

6.0 77.1

4.1 78.0

Create a scatter plot with that correctly depicts the % of women receiving prenatal care as a function of % GDP spent on health expenditure

Determine the regression equation between % GDP spent on healthy and % of women receiving prenatal care.

Use the regression equation to find the % of women receiving prenatal care for a country that spends 5.0% of GDP on health expenditure.

Use the regression equation to find the percentage of women receiving prenatal care for a country that spend 12% of GDP on health expenditure.

Which prenatal care % is closer to the true %.

a) 78.044 since % GDP spent on healthcare producing this % of women receiving prenatla care would fall within range of input data ( value is interpolated)

b) Both calculations are equally accurate since they are calculated using the same regression equation.

c) 89.670 since data for % of women receiving prenatal care is extrapolated.
