Suggest one reason the outlier identified in (a) should not be included in any further analysis.
The relationship between Y and C can be modelled by the equation C =aY+b.
Find the value of a and the value of b.
Find and interpret the value of Pearson's product-moment correlation coefficient, r, for these data.
Use the model C =aY+b to estimate the body temperature of a newborn, and explain why this is unlikely to be reliable.
