The answer would be b. (-2, 3)
To solve this problem, start by plugging in your given n value.
This results in:
k = 100 - 4(60)
Next, simplify the parentheses by multiplying the -4 and the 60 together.
This leaves you with:
k = 100 - 240
To simplify for k, subtract 240 from 100 to get:
k = -140
So your final answer is k = -140 when n = 60
The average time of the 20 athletes who did not qualify for the final is 11.2 seconds .
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
Here we have , Twenty-eight athletes participate in a 100-meter race. The time of each athlete is measured during the qualification round. The average time is 11 seconds. The 8 athletes with the fastest time qualified for the final. The average time of these 8 athletes is 10.5 seconds. Let's have equations for this:
where are athletes
⇒
⇒
⇒
⇒ , where m is average time of the 20 athletes who did not qualify for the final.
⇒
⇒
⇒
∴ The average time of the 20 athletes who did not qualify for the final is 11.2 seconds .
It means that the tails never actually *touch* the x-axis, but it gets infinitesimally close to it.
