Height versus male shoe size: While it seems reasonable that taller people should have larger feet, there is actually a wide variation in the relationship between height and shoe size. The data in the table show the height (in inches) compared to the shoe size worn for a random sample of 12 male chemistry students. Using the data, (a) draw the scatterplot, (b) determine whether the association is linear or nonlinear, (c) determine whether the association is positive or negative, and (d) find the regression equation and use it to predict the shoe size of a man 80 in. tall and another that is 60 in. tall. Note that the heights of these two men fall outside of the range of our data set (see comment after Example 5 on page 85).
