Answer:

5.83 blocks away from his home

Step-by-step explanation:

If he travels 5 blocks south and 3 blocks west, the distance from his house considered along with the distances travelled gives a right angled triangle whose opposite side and adjacent sides are the distances travelled north and west.

The distance from his house after moving 3 blocks west is the hypotenuse side. As such, the distance may be computed using Pythagoras' theorem. Let the distance from his house be G

G^2 = 5^2 + 3^2

G^2 = 25 + 9

= 34

G = √34

=5.83

John is 5.83 blocks away from his home

There are two consecutive even numbers such
Bond [772]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the numbers be x and y

2 consecutive even nos.

therefore y = x+2

twice of the first (2x) is 46 more than y

2x = y+46

Solving both the equations

x - y + 2 = 0

(-)2x - y - 46 = 0

____________

-x + 0 + 48 = 0

____________

x = 48

y = x+2

= 48 +2

= 50

Therefore the 2 nos. are 48 and 50

Answer:

Y = - 12.55X1 + 276.52

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data:

Age of child :(X) : 4, 6, 10, 13, 14, 17

Time (seconds) (Y) : 230, 205, 132, 119, 108, 62

Using technology, the linear regression equation obtained using the data Given is :

Y = - 12.55X1 + 276.52

Where :

Slope = - 12.55

Intercept = 276.52

This also indicates that a negative slope is present and hence a negative relationship between age of Child and time in seconds.
