Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

The mean is the average found by adding the sum of the data points and dividing by the number of them. Here there are 3 cars whose speeds are 109, 111, and Z or unknown. The mean of them is 100. Solve for Z.

100 =(109+111+Z)/3

300=220+Z

80=Z

The speed of Car Z is less than 100.

So the equation for a trapezoid is A= \frac{b_1+b_2}{2} *h , with the b variable being the 2 bases, h variable for height, and the a variable for area. Firstly, we will need to plug in the appropriate numbers into the equation, and it'll look like this:

136= \frac{12+14}{2} *h

Next, we will need to combine 12 and 14, then divide the sum by 2. Your equation should look like this: 136=13*h

Lastly, just divide each side by 13, and your answer should be 10.46=h
