Answer:

Option D is correct.

If exercise time = 20 mins,

Body fat = 23.75%

Step-by-step explanation:

After plotting a graph of the variables given, with body fat on the x-axis and exercise time on the y-axis.

The equation of the graph was obtained to be

Y = -1.931X + 65.936

If exercise time = 20 mins,

Y = 20

20 = -1.98X + 66.936

-1.98X = -46.936

X = 23.7 = 23.75% From the options.

The problem can also be solved by doing the least squares regression line method, but this is more straight forward.

Classify each pair of numbered angles.
kifflom [539]
Adjacent angles are angles with a common side and vertex, linear pairs are adjacent angles that are supplementary, and vertical angles are angles made by the same two lines but on opposite sides.

For the first one, 5 and 6 clearly do not share a side but they are made up by the same 2 lines and are opposite of each other, making them vertical.

For the next one, since the angles only share 1 line (and not a side) they can't be any of the above.
