Answer: 0.0228

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The  mean and the standard deviation of finish times (in minutes) for this event are respectively as :-

\mu=30\\\\\sigma=5.5

If the distribution of finish times is approximately bell-shaped and symmetric, then it must be normally distributed.

Let X be the random variable that represents the finish times for this event.

z score : z=\dfrac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

z=\dfrac{19-30}{5.5}=-2

Now, the probability of runners who finish in under 19 minutes by using standard normal distribution table :-

P(X

Hence, the approximate proportion of runners who finish in under 19 minutes = 0.0228

Triss [41]

Answer:

Place "SUM" at 4 on the number line.

Step-by-step explanation:

8 + (-4) = 8 - 4 = 4

Adding a negative number is the same as subtracting its opposite. Adding -4 is the same as subtracting 4.
