spin [16.1K]

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.

Angle D = 47’

Angle B = 116’
32 + 32 = 64
180 - 64 = 116’

Angle E = 17’
116 + 47 = 163
180 - 163 = 17

What is the probability that both of Eduardo's partners for the group project will be girls? StartFraction 9 Over 65 EndFraction
tester [92]

Answer:

StartFraction 24 Over 65 EndFraction

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of students = 26

Number of boys = 10

Number of girls = 26-10

=16

Eduardo has to pull two names out of the hat without replacing them.

First name

Probability= Favourable outcome/Total outcome

Probability of girls=16

Total probability=26

Eduardo has to pull two names out of the hat without replacing them.

Probability= Favourable outcome/Total outcome

=16/26

=8/13

For the second name:

Without replacement of the first hat

Probability of girls=16-1=15

Total probability=26-1=25

Probability= Favourable outcome/Total outcome

=15/25

=3/5

Probability of both of Eduardo's partner for the group project will be girls=8/13*3/5

=24/65
