The point that is 3/7 of the way between -4 and 17 is 5
Answer:
The swimmer must complete the 200-meter backstroke in no more than 130 seconds.
Step-by-step explanation:
Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.
In a set with mean
and standard deviation
, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.
In this problem, we have that:

Fastest 6%
At most in the 6th percentile, that is, at most a value of X when Z has a pvalue of 0.07. So we have to find X when Z = -1.555.




The swimmer must complete the 200-meter backstroke in no more than 130 seconds.
We first must find the value of angle z.
Angle z = 90° - 42°
Angle z = 48°
We now use the sine function to find y.
sin(48°) = 35/y
y = 35/sin(48°)
y = 47.0971455362
We now round off to two decimal places.
y = 47.10
I hope this helps....
