For runners, a regression line for recovery time y y\,y minutes on training distance x x\,x km is y=18.4−0.62xy=18.4-0.62xy=18.4−0.62x.
Estimate the recovery time when x=12x=12x=12.
Interpret the gradient.
State why using the line for x=40x=40x=40 may be unreliable if the observed distances were 5 to 20 km.
