Answer:

The speed of the normal train is 60 kilometers per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let suppose that both trains move at constant speed and cover the same distance. Then, we have the following identity:

v_{1}\cdot t_{1} = v_{2}\cdot t_{2} (1)

Where:

v_{1}, v_{2} - Average speeds of the express train and the normal train, in kilometers per hour.

t_{1}, t_{2} - Travel times of the express train and the normal train, in hours.

In addition, there is the following relationship between average speeds:

v_{1} = v_{2} + 90 (2)

By (2) in (1), we have the following expression for the average speed of the normal train:

(v_{2} + 90) \cdot t_{1} = v_{2}\cdot t_{2}

90\cdot t_{1} = v_{2} \cdot (t_{2} - t_{1})

v_{2} = \frac{90\cdot t_{1}}{t_{2}-t_{1}}

If we know that t_{1} = 4\,h and t_{2} = 10\,h, then the average speed of the normal train is:

v_{2} = 90\cdot \left(\frac{4\,h}{10\,h - 4\,h} \right)

v_{2} = 60\,\frac{km}{h}

The speed of the normal train is 60 kilometers per hour.

Answer:

Alright well first off you start by converting everything to fractions, but decimals work better for me. So it would be 40.5 and 1.25, 40.5 being miles and the other gas. Divide 40.5 by 1.25, giving you 32.4

Can the results of the study be generalized to the population of interest?

No, because the sample is not representative of the population since it consists of only UC Berkeley undergraduates.

3)

No, because the the study is observational.
