Answer: Angle w and angle z should equal 92° to prove that r║s
Step-by-step explanation: Let us start by constructing the lines r and s, and then draw a transversal to intersect both lines as stated in the question. At the intersection of lines m and r, we have clockwise from the top angles w, x and the other two blank. This is as shown in the picture attached.
Also at the intersection of lines m and s, clockwise from the top, the angles are 92, y, z and a blank. This is also clearly marked in the picture attached.
If the two lines r and s are parallel, then it means;
(1) Angle 92 is equal to angle z (opposite angles are equal)
(2) Angle z is equal to the blank underneath angle x (corresponding angles on two parallel lines are equal)
(3) Angle 92 is equal to the blank underneath angle x (alternate angles on two parallel lines are equal)
(4) Angle 92 is equal to angle w (corresponding angles on two parallel lines are equal)
Therefore, of all four angles marked as w, x, y and z angles w and z should equal 92° to prove that line r is parallel to line s.

Answer:
a) Kenji's time had a lower z-score, which means that he is better compared to other runners on his level, and better to his peers compared to Nedda.
b) Rachel, because her time had the lowest z-score.
Step-by-step explanation:
Z-score:
In a set with mean and standard deviation
, the zscore of a measure X is given by:
The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.
In this question:
The lower the time, the better the runner is. So whoever's time has a lower z-score is a better runner. So initially, we find the z-score of each student's time.
An elementary school class ran 1 mile in an average of 11 minutes with a standard deviation of 3 minutes. Rachel, a student in the class, ran 1 mile in 8 minutes.
This means that for Rachel's time, we have that . So
A junior high school class ran 1 mile in an average of 9 minutes, with a standard deviation of 2 minutes. Kenji, a student in the class, ran 1 mile in 8.5 minutes.
This means that for Kenji's time, we have that . So
A high school class ran 1 mile in an average of 7 minutes with a standard deviation of 4 minutes. Nedda, a student in the class, ran 1 mile in 8 minutes.
This means that for Nedda's time, we have that . So
(a) Why is Kenji considered a better runner than Nedda, even though Nedda ran faster than he?
Kenji's time had a lower z-score, which means that he is better compared to other runners on his level, and better to his peers compared to Nedda.
(b) Who is the fastest runner with respect to his or her class? Explain why
Rachel, because her time had the lowest z-score.
Answer:
3 gallons
Step-by-step explanation:
Length of the rectangular wall = 23.6 feet
Width of the rectangular wall = 19.2 feet
Surface area of the wall = 23.6 × 19.2
= 453.12 square feet
∵ 200 square feet of the wall is covered by the amount of paint = 1 gallon
∴ 1 square feet of the wall will be covered by the amount of paint = gallons
∴ 453.12 square feet will require the amount of paint =
= 2.2656 gallons
Therefore, minimum 3 gallons will be required to paint the wall.
