Answer:

7.6 m/s faster

Step-by-step explanation:

Speed of swimmer = 1.8 meters per second

The distance covered by runner = 200

Time of runner = 21.3 sec

We have to find the speed of the runner first so that we can compare with the speed of swimmer.

Speed = Distance/Time

=> 200/21.3

=> 9.4 m/s

So we have to find the difference between both speeds

Difference = 9.4 - 1.8

=> 7.6 m/s

So the runner was 7.6 m/s faster..

Answer:

7.6m/s

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the time the Olympian swam

Speed=distance/time ⇒⇒Time=distance/speed

Distance=200m , speed= 1.8m/s   t= 200/1.8 = 111.11 seconds

Find the speed of the Olympic runner

Distance=200m  time = 21.3 sec  

s=200/21.3 = 9.4 m/s

Difference in speed= 9.4-1.8= 7.6m/s

Suppose the discrete random variable X has the probability distribution below:
Talja [164]

(a) P(X < 3) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) = 0.11 + 0.52 + 0.19 = 0.82

(b) P(X ≥ 1) = P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) = 0.52 + 0.19 + 0.12 + 0.06 = 0.89

(c) µ = 0×0.11 + 1×0.52 + 2×0.19 + 3×0.12 + 4×0.06 = 1.5

(d) σ² = (0²×0.11 + 1²×0.52 + 2²×0.19 + 3²×0.12 + 4²×0.06) - µ² = 1.07

σ = √(σ²) ≈ 1.03

If f(x)=x-2 which of the following is the inverse of f(x) brainly
Lostsunrise [7]

Answer:

The inverse of f(x) is  f ^ {- 1}(x) = x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the inverse of the function f (x) = x-2, perform the following steps:

1) do y = f (x)

y = x-2

2) Solve the equation for the variable x.

y + 2 = x -2 +2

y + 2 = x

3) exchange the variable x with the variable y

y + 2 = x ----> x + 2 = y

4) Change the variable y by f ^{- 1}(x)

Finally the inverse function is:

 f ^ {- 1} (x) = x + 2

Sloane kicked a soccer ball off the ground at a speed of 36 feet per second. the height of the ball can be represented by the fu
deff fn [24]

The total time in seconds the ball will take to travel before returning the ground is 2.25 seconds.

<h3>What is factorisation?</h3>

The breaking or breakdown of an entity (such as an integer, a matrices, or a polynomials) into a products of another unit, or factors, whose multiplication results in the original number, matrix, etc., is known as factorisation or factoring in mathematics. 

Calculation for the time;

Let 't' be the time in second the ball will travel.

Let H(t) be the total height travelled by the ball.

The equation of the height is given as

H(t)=-16 t^{2}+36 t

As soon as the ball will return to the ground the total height will become zero.

So, put equation of height equal to zero.

-16 t^{2}+36 t=0

Factorise the above equation;

-16 t\left(t-\frac{9}{4}\right)=0

Put each value equals to zero to get the value of time.

\begin{aligned}&t=0 \mathrm{sec} \\&t=9 / 4=2.25 \mathrm{sec}\end{aligned}

As, time can not be zero

Therefore, the total time taken by the ball to return to the ground is 2.25 sec.
