Complete question :

a researcher compared the Heights and shoe sizes for 50 men, selected at random. The equation shown describes a line of best fit for the data, where X is the shoe size and y is the height, in inches (y=1.6x + 58)

Based on the equation, what is the approximate shoe size for a man having a height of 60 inches

Answer:

1.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the regression equation :

y=1.6x + 58

X = shoe size ; y = height

Using the equation, the approximate shoe size of a man with a height of 60 will be ;

60 = 1.6x + 58

60 - 58 = 1.6x

2 = 1.6x

2/1.6 = 1.6x / 1.6

x = 2 / 1.6

x = 1.25

Hence, approximate shoe size of a man with a height of 60 will be 1.25

There are 7/8 kilograms of salt in the kitchen. Mrs. Jackson used 2/15 of salt when preparing dinner . How much salt did she use
neonofarm [45]

so since Mrs Jackson used 2/15 of 7/8, the amount she used is simply their product.


\bf \stackrel{\textit{how much is }\frac{2}{15}\textit{ of }\frac{7}{8}?}{\cfrac{7}{8}\cdot \cfrac{2}{15}}\implies \cfrac{7}{15}\cdot \cfrac{2}{8}\implies \cfrac{7}{15}\cdot \cfrac{1}{4}\implies \cfrac{7}{60}

On your wedding day you leave for the church 34 minutes before the ceremony is to begin, which should be plenty of time since th
Schach [20]

Answer:

Average speed   is 37.35 mi/h

Step-by-step explanation:

given data

leave =  34 minutes before

church distance =  12.0 miles

average speed first 17 minutes =  5.0 mi/h

solution

so we find Total distance travel in first 17 minutes = speed × time

Total distance travel in first 17 minutes = 5 × \frac{17}{60}

Total distance travel in first 17 minutes = 1.416 mi

and

Distance Remaining = 12 - 1.416 = 10.584 mi

Time Remaining = 34 - 17 min = 17 min

so

remaining distance Average speed  = \frac{distance}{time}

Average speed  = \frac{10.584}{\frac{17}{60}}

Average speed   is 37.35 mi/h
