Answer: 0.16

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the run times provided are normally distributed ;

Mean(x) of distribution = 3 hours 50 minutes

Standard deviation(s) = 30 minutes

The probability that a randomly selected runner has a time less than or equal to 3 hours 20 minutes

3 hours 20 minutes = (3 hrs 50 mins - 30 mins):

This is equivalent to :

[mean(x) - 1 standard deviation]

z 1 standard deviation within the mean = 0.84

z, 1 standard deviation outside the mean equals:

P(1 - z value , 1standard deviation within the mean)

1 - 0.8413 = 0.1587

= 0.16

While traveling at a constant speed in a car, the centrifugal acceleration passengers feel while the car is turning is inversely
kvv77 [185]

A = k/R where A = acceleration and R = radius of the turn and k is a constant to be found.

Substituting the given values:-

10 = k / 70

k = 10*70 = 700

So the equation of the motion is A = 700 / R

When the radius is 140 the acceleration is 700 / 140 = 5 ft/sec/sec ( answer)

tresset_1 [31]

Answer:

they walked the same distance

Step-by-step explanation:

if you add cal's expression up which is 2(2+1)+(-4) you would have to use distributive property which means you would have to times 2 by 2 which is 4 and then  times 2  by 1 and get two and then add them together and  get 2 and if you do the same thing with Ari's expression you get  2.
