The percentage of runners that have times less than 14.4 seconds that is P(x<14.4) is 0.0013499 which is approximately = 0.15%.

<h2>What is standard deviation?</h2>

The standard deviation of a data set is defined as how the data is dispersed in relation to the mean.

From the question,

The raw time given (X) = 14.4 sec

The mean value(m) = 18sec

The standard deviation(d) = 1.2 sec

Using the formula,

z = X - m/ d

z= 14.4- 18/1.2

z = -3.6/1.2

z= -3

Using a Z table to find the percentage equivalent of P(x<14.4) is 0.0013499 which is approximately = 0.15%.

Therefore, the percentage of runners that have times less than 14.4 seconds that is P(x<14.4) is 0.0013499 which is approximately = 0.15%.

Convert the measurement as indicated.
grigory [225]

Answer:

7 gal 3 qt is 31 quarts.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

7 gal 3 qt to quarts.

Now, convert the measurement as indicated.

So, the value of 1 gallon = 4 quarts.

Thus , the 7 gal(gallons) = 7 × 4 = 28 quarts.

And 3 qt (quarts) = 3 × 1 = 3 quarts.

So,

7\ gal\ 3\ qt

=28 quarts+3 quarts

=31 quarts.

Therefore, 7 gal 3 qt is 31 quarts.

Winnie can walk 2 miles in 30 minutes. How many miles can she walk in 2 hours? (Remember 1hr = 60 min) A. 2 B. 4 C. 6 D. 8
Sati [7]
The answer is D-8.

If Winnie walks 2 miles in 30 minutes, 30 minutes is half an hour so for 1 hour which is 60 minutes, she can walk 4 miles, 90 minutes she can walk 6 and for 120 minutes which is 2 hours she can walk 8.

So all I did was multiply 2 by 4 and got 8. The number 4 came from the thought that 2 hours have 4 sets of 30 minutes
