QUESTION:

Compare the predictions. Consider Case 37 in Table 10.4 (8th row, 2nd column). For this case the area is 10 km2 and the percent forest is 63%. A predicted index of biotic integrity based on area was computed in Exercise 10.32, while one based on percent forest was computed in Exercise 10.33. Compare these two estimates and explain why they differ. Use the idea of a prediction interval to interpret these results.
