A researcher is attempting to predict the number of lions in an African habitat based on previous data. He has formed a regression equation which is: Y = 25 + 0.5X – 2ZX, where X is the number of years since the first population sample, and Z is the death rate of the lions. If it has been 10 years, and the death rate is 1 lion per year, what is the predicted number of lions in the habitat?
