What can you say about the relationship between a correlation r and the slope b of the least squares line form of data?

You can say that the correlation is positive if and only if the slope is positive. The correlation is zero if and only if the slope is zero. And the correlation is negative if and only if the slope is negative. On the other hand, slope does change when your measurement units change, while correlation does not change. (For example, the correlation between height in inches and weight in pounds will be the same as the correlation between height in centimeters and weight in kilograms, as long as both sets of measurements were taken on the same observations.)

Does an individuals bmi involve their height and weight?

Yes, a body mass index involves your height and weight. There is an ideal body weight depending on your height, and you can measure it through a formula.


What does your body mass index measure?

BMI actually tells you almost nothing.BMI is a discredited attempt at equating weight and height which is not accepted by dieticians. Aside from the obvious reliance of the calculation on the square of the height (rather than the cube of the height) to the mass which disadvantages taller people, clinical studies on individuals with various BMI values with heat disease and similar problems showed no correlation.

Is the BMI scale related to height and weight?

Yes, the BMI scale or Body Mass Index is a tool used to measure the percentage of body fat in an individual using both height and weight. The formula uses your weight divided by the square of your height.


What is the ideal weight for your height?

There is no ideal weight in relation to height. Weight is related to height and body composition. What counts more than your body weight is your percentage of body fat. For more information about body fat percentage, see the "healthy adult weight" page link, further down this page, listed under Related Questions.

What correlation exists between the length of the femur and body height?

Multiplying the length of the femur by 2. 6 and adding 65 to it should be roughly the person's body height in centimeters. However, the sex and race of the person can affect this relationship between the femur and body height.

What is used to calculate body fat percentage based on height to weight rations?

Body Fat Percentage is calculated by total weight of a person's fat divided by their total overall weight. It cannot be calculated by using height and weight alone. Body Mass Index (BMI) is calculated by dividing the body mass in kg by the square height in in meters BMI = [mass (kg)] / [height (m)]2
