Listed below are systolic blood pressure measurements (in mm Hg) obtained from the same woman. Find the regression equation, letting the right arm blood pressure be the predictor (x) variable. Find the best predicted systolic blood pressure in the left arm given that the systolic blood pressure in the right arm is 85 mm Hg. Use a significance level of 0.05. Right Arm 101 100 92 77 76 Left Arm 174 168 142 141 143 LOADING...

(Round to one decimal place as needed.) Given that the systolic blood pressure in the right arm is 85 mm Hg, the best predicted systolic blood pressure in the left arm is nothing mm Hg. (Round to one decimal place as needed.)
The statistical software output for this problem is:
Hence,
a) Regression equation:
=
53.7 + 1.1 x
b) Since the p - value is greater than 0.05, regression equation is not significant for prediction. Hence,
Best predicted systolic blood pressure = Mean of y values = (174 + 168 + 142 + 141 + 143)/5 = 153.6
