Running head: STATISTICS 1 STATISTICS: Name: Institution affiliation: Date: STATISTICS 1. 2 According to the study narrative and Figure 1 in the Flannigan et al. (2014) study, does the APLS UK formula under- or overestimate the weight of children younger than 1 year of age? Provide a rationale for your answer. APLS UK formula overestimates the weight of children younger than one year by 1025.4%. This is so since the APLS formula being used is the revised formula in which an alpha of 0.05 is being multiplied by age in months and 4 inches are added to the heights. 2. Using the values a = 3.161 and b = 0.502 with the novel formula in Figure 1, what is the predicted weight in kilograms (kg) for a child at 9 months of age? Show your calculations. Y=0.502 (9) + 3.161= 4.518 + 3.161= 7.679 kg at 9 months of age. 3. Using the values a = 3.161 and b = 0.502 with the novel formula in Figure 1, what is the predicted weight in kilograms for a child at 2 months of age? Show your calculations. Y=0.502 (2) + 3.161= 1.004 + 3.161= 4.165 kg at 2 months of age 4. In Figure 2, the formula for calculating y (weight in kg) is Weight in kg = (0.176 × Age in months) + 7.241. Identify the y i ...
