• 25 till <30 = Overweight
• > 30 = Obese

3. Conduct the appropriate statistical test to find any association between OBESCLAS and SYSTOLIC.

Copy and paste the appropriate tables/charts along with the interpretation into your Word file.

4. Assuming that both variables BMI & SYSTOLIC are normally distributed,

• conduct an appropriate statistical test to prove the association between the two variables.
• Demonstrate the association using the appropriate chart.

Copy and paste the chart and your answers into your Word file.

5. Assuming that the association in Q4 is significant, try to come out with a formula that will predict the systolic blood pressure based on the body mass index.

y = a + bx

Copy and paste the appropriate tables/charts along with the interpretation into your Word file.
