Yeah Oh Table one below shows the recorder data from
- 00:10
each scavenging event In this study got whale species and
- 00:14
signs and wind direction Speed Really follow things Figure one
- 00:19
illustrates the relationship of wind speed Teo maximum shark size
- 00:24
The straight line and figure one is a linear regression

- 00:27
fit to the data points to illustrate a direct relationship
- 00:30
between wind speed and maximum shark sides Okay next up
- 00:35
according to the information and figure one What is the
- 00:39
maximum shark size for a wind speed of around eighteen
- 00:43
knots Okay Mac Shark size eighteen knots Well we made
- 00:48
the mistake of doing these drills on an empty stomach
- 00:50
So diverse it seemed that this question was dealing with
- 00:52
garlic knots Way were grossed out by the thought of
- 00:55
someone asking about wind speed and direction Garlic does that
- 00:59
to us but never mind Anyway we first should find
- 01:02
the point on the line given and figure one that
- 01:05
corresponds to a wind speed of about eighteen Not So
- 01:08
Where is that It's right about here We find it
- 01:11
by looking at the data point that falls halfway between
- 01:14
fifteen and twenty Those were the knot marks there on
- 01:17
the horizontal axis So like right around there Then we
- 01:21
check out the corresponding value of the vertical access over
- 01:23
here Why access Thinking they're alright Well out of the
- 01:26
answer choices and four point nine meters right there is
- 01:31
closest to this value So that's it So that's our
- 01:34
answer Be about four point nine And another way to
- 01:37
solve this one is to put the X's value of
- 01:39
eighteen in the equation given in the figure to solve
- 01:42
for why Maximum shark's eyes Right Well this will give
- 01:45
you a value that four point nine four four meters
- 01:47
thing All right Excuse us We're going to go get
- 01:50
some garlic pizza here now and not feed it to 00:01:52.19 --> [endTime] the sharks
