a. Use the linear regression equation from Part C to calculate the predicted adult weight for each
birth weight. Round to the nearest hundredth. Enter these in the third column of the table. (2.5
points)
b. Find the residual for each birth weight. Round to the nearest hundredth. Enter these in the
fourth column of the table. (2.5 points)
c. Plot the residuals. (3 points)
