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.
