From the question we are told that:

Total Sample size n=500

Dan's mean \=x_D= 3hr

Bret's mean \=x_D= 4hr

Generally, the  Total hours spent doing leisure and sports activities  is mathematically given by

For Sample A

T_a=(1*70)+(2*90)+(3*135)+(4*140)+(5*65)\\\\

T_a=1540 hours

For Sample B

T_b=(1*80)+(2*80)+(3*130)+(4*135)+(5*75)

T_b=1545

Therefore

Average Time spent doing leisure and sports activities by an American Adult

For Sample A

T_A=\frac{T_a}{n}

T_A=\frac{1540}{500}

T_A=3.08

T_A \approx 3

For Sample B

T_A'=\frac{T_b}{n}

T_A'=\frac{1545}{500}

T_A'=3.09

T_A' \approx 3

Therefore

Dan is Correct because 3.08 or 3.09 is approximately equal to 3

Answer:

20, increased, Bianca

Step-by-step explanation:

First one:

He is shown to have travelled 20km in 1 hour, so that's 20km/h.

Second:

The gradient is how steep the curve is, the steeper the faster the person is travelling. Due to the fact Bianca's curve becomes steeper, it shows she is travelling faster. Therefore, her running speed increases.

Third:

Bianca's line hits 50km before Alberto, so therefore she finished first.

Let me know if this makes sense, hope it helped! :D
