A recent study¹ examined several variables on collegiate football players, including the variable Years, which is number of years playing football, and the variable Percentile, which gives percentile on a cognitive reaction test. The regression line for predicting Percentile from Years is:
Percentile = 102 - 3.34 Years.

Answer:

The cognitive percentile for someone who has played for 7 years is 78.62

The cognitive percentile for someone who has played for 16 years is 48.56

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question the regression line for predicting percentile from years is given as

                 percentile = [tex]102 - 3.34 \ Years[/tex]

For someone who has played for 7 years his cognitive percentile would be

           [tex]Percentile = 102 - 3.34(7)[/tex]

                             [tex]=78.62[/tex]

For someone who has played for 16 years his cognitive percentile would

be   [tex]Percentile = 102 - 3.34(16)[/tex]

                        [tex]=48.56[/tex]
