Heights (in centimeters) and weights (in kilograms) of 7 supermodels are given below. Find the regression equation, letting the first variable be the independent (x) variable, and predict the weight of a supermodel who is 171 cm tall.
Height 176,168,178,174,176,176,178
Weight 56,50,58,55,54,55,57

The regression equation:
y = m x + b
m = ( 57 - 50 ) / ( 178 - 168 ) = 7 / 10 = 0.7
50 = 0.7 * 168 + b
50 = 117.6 + b
b = 50 - 117.6
b = - 67.6
y = 0.7 * x - 67.6
The graph is in the attachment.
The weight of supermodel who is 171 cm tall:
y = 0.7 * 171 - 67.6 = 119.7 - 67.6 = 52.1 kg
