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.
