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

The other options The diagonals bisect each other is not sufficient because in parallelogram diagonals always gets bisected , parallelogram becomes rectangles only if both the diagonals are of same length.

In a parallelogram The opposite angles and opposite sides are always equal.

Hence the correct option is

The diagonals are congruent.

69 points!!!!!!!!!!!! ANYONE who can answer this please
Sloan [31]
I would either graph these (which would be a easiest) then you would see a line that goes through (0, -2) on the y-axis
And you can either determine the slope from the graph or pick two points above and find the slope.




or spread them out evenly and fill out the missing pieces.

-8. -4



-4. -3



0



4. -1

6. -0.5

8



12. 1


Fill in the middle values and you can put (6,-0.5) on there

What pattern do u see? This way would be pretty hard.
