To calculate a residual, we first need a model or equation that describes the relationship between time and distance. The residual is the difference between the observed value and the predicted value from the model.
Assuming we have a linear model represented by the equation:
\[ d = mt + b \]
where:
- \( d \) is the distance,
- \( t \) is the time,
- \( m \) is the slope of the line, and
- \( b \) is the y-intercept.
Without knowing the parameters (slope and intercept) of the model, we cannot calculate the residual directly.
However, if you provide a specific model (values for \( m \) and \( b \)), I can help calculate the predicted distance for 2 minutes and then derive the residual using the observed distance of 12 feet. Please provide the equation or model for more accurate assistance!
