Below are the results of the Regression Equation from Minitab. The residuals and standardized residuals are near the bottom.

The regression equation is
Age (yr) = 564 - 111 Weight (gm)

Predictor       Coef  SE Coef      T      P
Constant       564.4    115.1   4.90  0.000
Weight (gm)  -111.03    23.16  -4.79  0.000

S = 8.40027   R-Sq = 44.2%   R-Sq(adj) = 42.3%

R denotes an observation with a large standardized residual.
X denotes an observation whose X value gives it large influence.
