"What is negative eighty divided by five?"
Step-by-step explanation:
-80 ÷ 5
= -16
1700000/10 is 170000
So the size of Florida is 170,000
Complete question :
The 100m dah times in the girl's track meet were normally distributed with a mean of 13 seconds and a standard deviation of 0.3 seconds.
Lana finished the race in 13.2 seconds . If 84 other girls ran in the event, approximately how many runners did she beat?
Answer:
21 runners
Step-by-step explanation:
Mean, μ = 13 seconds
Standard deviation, σ = 0.3
Lana's race time = 13.2
We find the proportion of runners who had race time above 13.2 ;
Proportion of who had race tune above 13.2
P(x > 13.2)
Obtain the Zscore
Zscore = (x - μ) / σ
Z = (13.2 - 13) / 0.3
Zscore = 0.2 / 0.3 = 0.6667
P(Z > 0.6667) = 0.25239 (Z probability calculator)
This is about 0.25239 * 100 = 25.24% = 25% (nearest percent)
Hence, Number of runners Lana beat = 25% of total runners ;
0.25 * 84 = 21
Hence, Lana beat about 21 runners
The function is

, and according to the description of the function in the problem statement, we have the following:
at t=0 after being thrown (that is, at initial time), the height of the ball is calculated by h(0) as follows:

(ft), which is the initial height, as expected.
At t=1 (sec), the height would be

.
etc.
The path is parabolic, as we know by seeing that the function is a quadratic polynomial function. This function has been given in factored form as well. From that we can see that the zeros of the function are t=7 and t=-2.
This means that at t=7 sec, the height h is 0, which means that the ball has hit the ground. t=-2 has no significance in the context of our problem so we just neglect it.
Answer: B) 7 sec
