Question: Can the size of ones head be used to predict their height? Variables: A child's height and their head circumference.

I predict there will be a positive association between the circumference of the kids head and their height, Because I think as the head grows the body grows.

I will use a measuring tape and to measure both the head and the height of both girls and boys of kids and then when they are adults.

Here's my data


 * < Head size ||< Height ||
 * > 22.5 ||> 62 ||
 * > 22 ||> 65 ||
 * > 22 ||> 65 ||
 * > 22 ||> 66.5 ||
 * > 22 ||> 66.7 ||
 * > 24 ||> 75 ||
 * > 22 ||> 65 ||
 * > 24 ||> 69 ||
 * > 24.5 ||> 76.5 ||
 * > 23 ||> 71 ||
 * > 22.5 ||> 70 ||
 * > 20.5 ||> 61 ||
 * > 22 ||> 61.5 ||
 * > 23 ||> 68 ||
 * > 22 ||> 70 ||
 * > 21.5 ||> 68 ||
 * > 23 ||> 67.5 ||
 * > 21 ||> 65 ||
 * > 20.5 ||> 60.5 ||
 * > 22 ||> 64 ||





My prediction stated that the size of their head would predict their height. The simple linear regression results says that the correlation coefficient would be 0.7723.
