Answer:

Brainliest please

50years is their ages now

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>use algebra</h3>

onyango= 3a

daughter= let it be a

son= he is 4 times less than his father, 3/4a

8years

8+3a+a+8+3/4a+a

a+8+3/4a+a

7/4+1 = 8/4a+8 + 12y 20= 8/4a = 40years is the father 8 years later, so his present age is 40-8

32y= father now

daughter= 1/3×32=10years

son= 1/4×32= 8yrs

add 32+10+8= 50years

Which describes Myra's distance as time increases?
DaniilM [7]

Answer:

(A)increasing

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the time and total distance ran by Myra in the table below.

\left|\begin{array}{c|c}Time(minutes)&Distance(miles)\\--&--\\0&0.0\\2&0.4\\4&0.8\\6&1.2\\8&1.6\end{array}\right|

We observe that as time increases, Myra's distance also increases. It is the speed(0.2 miles per minute) which is constant.

Therefore Option A is the correct option.

Suppose that z-scores come from a standard normal distribution. Use the Normal Probability Applet (Links to an external site.) t
Natalka [10]

Answer:

0.683

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to find P(-1<z<1).

For this purpose, we use normal distribution area table

P(-1<z<1)=P(-1<z<0)+(0<z<1)

Using normal area table and looking the value corresponds to 1.0, we get

P(-1<z<1)=0.3413+0.3413

P(-1<z<1)=0.6826

Rounding the answer to three decimal places

P(-1<z<1)=0.683

So, 68.3% of the z-scores will be between -1 an 1.
