Hi
I've been away and must have missed this question. I am always on the
lookout for good regression data. I have my students fold boxes and find
volumes based on the length x of the square cut from the corners to form
the box. I think it's the January,2000 Mathematics Teacher which has an
article about this.
For fun, there's a quartic relationship between diameter of artery and
blood pumping. I don't have the article at home, but my cardiologist
brother-in-law helped me with that one.
