Will give brainliest for good, correct answer. Answer part A and B, please. Dr. McDaniel is a pediatrician. During each office visit, he measures the height of his patient. The table shows the data he collected one day from his male patients.

Age (in years): 3, 6, 7, 12, 9, 13, 3, 10
Height (in inches): 38, 50, 46.5, 57.75, 48.25, 58, 40.5, 52.75

a.) What is the least squares regression equation for the height of a male patient where x is the patient’s age? Round each value in the regression equation to the nearest hundredth.

b.) Using the regression equation from part (a), how tall should Dr. McDaniel expect a 5 year old male patient to be? Round your answer to the nearest inch.
