Susan English went to Market Hall Produce and measured
a number of fruits and vegetables. They (the vegetables and the
people) were very cooperative.
shape is the general shape of the produce item.
kind is what kind of fruit or vegetable it is.
length is the length of the thing in cm. (North
pole to south pole)
girth is the distance around in cm. (around the
equator)
mass is the mass in grams.
How would you predict mass from length
and/or girth?
How do you explain any outliers you see?
