Answer:

We cannot calculate the probability that a randomly selected passenger weighs more than 200 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

We cannot calculate the probability that a randomly selected passenger weighs more than 200 pounds because we do not know the number of possible outcomes, the events , sample space or the sample size. Probability is calculated with frequency or occurrences or how much certainty there is.It is a number between 0 and 1. 1 indicates certainty and 0 indicates impossibility. Without a range or frequency how can we depict the possibility or impossibility of an occurrence of 200 pounds.

Answer:

a) The distance travelled on the cycle in the first 14 seconds is 96 meters.

b) The acceleration in the first 4 seconds is 2 meters per square second.

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The distance travelled by the cycle is equal to the area below the curve, which is the sum of the first triangle and the rectangle:

$\Delta x = \frac{1}{2}\cdot \left(8\,\frac{m}{s} \right) \cdot (4\,s-0\,s)+\left(8\,\frac{m}{s}\right)\cdot (14\,s-4\,s)$
