Regression analysis investigates the relationship between variables; typically, the relationship between a dependent variable and one or more independent variables .

We use linear regression when we have a continuous outcome variable (Y) and we want to explore how Y changes as a function of one or more predictors (X).

So here in this case we use linear regression .

The equation for  linear regression is  y = a + b x .

Now we have to calculate values for a and b .

The  sample of 5 adults tabulated as shown below .

From the above table, Σx = 334, Σy = 738, Σxy = 49501, Σx² = 22366, Σy² = 109774 , number of samples n = 5 .
