Answer:
He performed better in the 800 m race
Step-by-step explanation:
Obtain the standardized score for each event :
Zscore = (score - mean) / standard deviation
1000 meter :
Mean = 4.5 ; Standard deviation = 0.75 ; x = 4.1
Zscore = (4.1 - 4.5) / 0.75
Zscore = - 0.4 / 0.75 = - 0.5333
800 meter :
Mean = 3.2 ; Standard deviation = 0.4 ; x = 3
Zscore = (3 - 3.2) / 0.4
Zscore = - 0.2 / 0.4 = - 0.5
-0.5 > - 0.533
Hence, he performed better in the 800 m race
Here is a picture of the answer:
This is a division problem:
Each box holds 20 bags.
800 bags / 20 bags per box = # of boxes
40 boxes are needed.
