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 80 mm Hg. Use a significance level of 0.05
Right Arm   Left Arm
103   175
102   169
95   149
76   150
76   148
The regression equation is
Given that the systolic blood pressure in the right arm is 80 mm Hg, the best predicted systolic blood pressure in the left arm is ? mm Hg.
