Exercise D.53 shows a multiple regression model to predict percent body fat using the nine other variables
Question:
Exercise D.53 shows a multiple regression model to predict percent body fat using the nine other variables in the dataset BodyFat. Try to improve on this model, using a subset of these predictors to balance the desire to use important individual predictors with explaining a significant portion of the variability in body fat. Describe the process you use to obtain your model and discuss the merits of your final choice.
