Answer: The girl herself ran faster than her friend.

Step-by-step explanation:

This answer, of course assumes a lot of variables, but for the sake of keeping things simple, lets assume the following, the people are ran in a "straight line" with no "obstacles" in their way, and ran on the same track.

Calculating in meters-per-second for the girl who ran 200 meters in 28 seconds, you get 7.14285714286 meters per second

Calculating in meters-per-second for the girl who ran 400 meters in 60 seconds, you get 6.66666666667 meters per second

Comparing the two results, it can be "accurately" concluded that the girl herself ran faster than her friend under the following assumptions earlier stated.

This figure shows △XYZ . MZ¯¯¯¯¯¯ is the angle bisector of ∠YZX . What is XM ? Enter your answer, as a decimal, in the box. unit

Answer:

Length of XM is 5.5 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given △XYZ where MZ is the angle bisector of ∠YZX . we have to find the length of XM.

A triangle with vertices X, Y, and Z. Side XZ is base. A line segment drawn from Z to M bisects ∠YZX into two parts ∠YZM and ∠XZM.

YZ=7 units, XZ=11 units and YM=3.5 units

By angle bisector theorem which states that an angle bisector of an angle divides the opposite side in two segments that are proportional to the another two sides of the triangle.

Hence, $\frac{YM}{MX}=\frac{YZ}{XZ}$
