A sports medicine major wanted to conduct an experiment to determine if there is a correlation between the members of the soccer

team's leg strength and the time it takes for them to sprint 40 yards. He sets up the following test and records the data:
Every day for a week, he counts how many times each player can leg press 350 pounds. The following week, he has each player sprint 40 yards every day. The table shows the average number of leg-press repetitions and the average 40-yard dash time (in seconds) for seven randomly selected players. What is the equation of the line of best fit? How many seconds should he expect a player to take to run 40 yards if that player can do 22 leg-press repetitions? Round any values to the nearest tenth, if necessary.

Leg press (Reps): 12, 32, 7, 11, 23, 28, 15
40-yard Dash: 8.6, 14.6, 7.1, 8.3, 11.9, 13.4, 9.5

Answer:

1) The equation of the line of best fit is y = 0.3·x + 5

2) The time it would take a player that can complete 22 leg press repetitions to run 40 yards is 11.6 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

1) The given data are;

Leg press (Reps):    {}                 40-yard Dash Time

12                     {}                              8.6

32                     {}                             14.6

7                     {}                                7.1

11                     {}                               8.3

23                     {}                             11.9

28                     {}                              13.4

15                     {}                              9.5

From the attached graph we observe that with the data sorted in increasing order, there is a linear relation between the number of leg presses and the time to complete a 40 yard dash

The slope = (14.6 - 7.1)/(32 - 7) = 0.3

The equation of the line of best fit is the linear equation of the data given in point and slope form as follows;

y - 7.1 = 0.3×(x - 7)

y - 7.1 = 0.3·x - 2.1

The equation of the line of best fit is therefore;

y = 0.3·x + 5

Where;

y = The time to complete the 40-yard dash

x = The number of leg press completed

2) When x = 22, we have;

y = 0.3 × 22 + 5 = 11.6 seconds

If a player can do 22 leg-press repetitions, it would take the player 11.6 seconds to complete the 40 yard-dash.

Sue played four games of golf.
alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

Sue's scores for the four games in ascending order are: 97, 98, 98, 107

Step-by-step explanation:

Her modal score was 98.  The mode is found by using the number that appears most often.  This means that 98 has to appear at least two times out of the four scores.

Her range was 10.  The range is found by taking the highest score and subtracting it from the lowest score.  The highest score had to be greater than 98 and the lowest score had to be less than 98 since we know the mode was 98.

Her mean score was 100.  This mean is found by adding all the numbers together and then dividing by the total numbers listed.  Adding the four scores together and dividing by 4 will equal 100.

Used guess and test:

Highest Number, 98, 98, Lowest Number

107 - 97 = 10 (meets range requirement)

97 + 98 + 98 + 107 = 400

400/4 = 100 (meets the mean requirement)

The profit function of a manufacturer, in dollars, when x units of a certain commodity are produced and sold is given by
Annette [7]

Answer:

Derivative: P’(x) = 200 - 2x

If P’(x) = 0 , x = 100

Therefore P’ is positive and P increases until x = 100

So the maximum units to maximize profits is 100 units

And for 100 units the profit in dollar is:

20000 - 10000 = 10000

10000 dollars

You are planning on retiling your bathroom floor and buy 96 square feet of tile. If the length of the bathroom is
Rudik [331]

Answer:

8 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that 96 sq. feet of tile is bought to retile the bathroom.

It means area of bathroom is 93/2 x^2 = 96\\=> 3 x^2 = 96*2=192\\=>  x^2 = 192/3 = 64\\=>\sqrt{x^2}  = \sqrt{64} \\=> x = 86 sq. feet

Width of bathroom be x

Given that the length of the bathroom is  one and a half times the width

Length of bathroom in term sod width = 1 1/2* x = 3/2 x

we know area of rectangle is given by length * width

therefore area of bathroom =( x* 3/2 x) = 3/2 x^2

Also area of  bathroom is 86 sq. feet, therefore

3/2 x^2 = 96\\=> 3 x^2 = 96*2=192\\=>  x^2 = 192/3 = 64\\=>\sqrt{x^2}  = \sqrt{64} \\=> x = 8

Thus, width of bathroom is 8 feet.
