The probability that a randomly selected runner has a time less than or equal to 3 hours and 20 minutes is 0.16 or 16%.

<h3>What is normally distributed data?</h3>

Normally distributed data is the distribution of probability which is symmetric about the mean.

The mean of the data is the average value of the given data.

The standard deviation of the data is the half of the difference of the highest value and mean of the data set.

The times of the runners in a marathon are normally distributed, with

  • Mean of 3 hours and 50 minutes
  • Standard deviation of 30 minutes.

Refere the probabiliity table attached below. The probability of Z being inside the 1 Standard daviation of mean is 0.84.

The probability of runner selected with time less than or equal to 3 hours and 20 minutes,

P=1-0.84\\P=0.16

Thus, the probability that a randomly selected runner has a time less than or equal to 3 hours and 20 minutes is 0.16 or 16%.

Who failed to support civil rights for freed slaves? (wrong category by mistake, not mathematics)
dangina [55]

Answer:

The Supreme Court.

Step-by-step explanation:

After the end of the Civil War and the enactment of the Thirteenth Amendment in 1865, slavery was officially abolished in the United States. Thus, the millions of African American slaves that inhabited the southern states of the country won their freedom and equality before the law against whites.

Now this situation began to dismember in 1877, when federal troops left the southern states and Reconstruction officially came to an end. From then on, Democratic governors and legislators began to sanction the Black Codes and Jim Crow Laws, aimed at curtailing the civil and political rights of African-Americans.

This situation was tested before the Supreme Court in 1896 in the case Plessy v. Ferguson. But in the ruling of said case, the Supreme Court established that racial segregation was constitutional and therefore neglected African Americans and their rights.
