Answer:
Here, x represents the age in years and y represents the systolic blood pressure
As per the statement:
The scatter plot shows the systolic blood pressure of people of several different ages.
The equation represents the linear model for this data is:
[tex]y=x+95[/tex] .....[1]
We have to find the systolic blood pressure of someone who is 42 years old.
⇒x = 42 years.
Substitute in [1] we have;
[tex]y = 42+95 = 137[/tex] mm Hg
therefore, the systolic blood pressure of someone who is 42 years old. is, 137 mm Hg
