Answer:

  • Kim is 13
  • Jack is 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Let k represent Kim's age. Then Jack's age is k-5 and the total of their ages is ...

  k + (k -5) = 21

  2k = 26 . . . . . . . add 5, collect terms

  k = 13 . . . . . . . . . divide by 2; Kim's age

  k -5 = 8 . . . . . . . Jack's age

Kim is 13; Jack is 8.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that latitude and longitude describe locations on the Earth with respect to the equator and prime meridian.

Latitude High Temp

("N)  

 

12 53

 

16 41

 

30 67

 

36 63

 

32 70

 

11 58

 

10 61

 

33 67

 

30 72

 

 

Slope 0.732

Int -21.56266667

Regression line is y = 0.732x-21.563 where x represents the latitude and y high temperature

Since slope = 0.732, we get temp increases by 0.8 degree for 1 degree increasenorth in latitude

Hence option c is right
