Answer:

Sam has the more convincing victory with a greater Zscore value

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Year 1:

Mean finish time (m) = 185.64

Standard deviation (s) = 0.314

Sam's time (x1) = 185.29

Year 2:

Mean finish time (m) = 110.3

Standard deviation (s) = 0.129

Rita's time (x1) = 110.02

Zscore = (x - mean) / standard deviation

Sam's Zscore :

(185.29 - 185.64) / 0.314

= - 0.35 / 0.314

= −1.114649

= - 1.115

Rita's Zscore :

(110.02 - 110.3) / 0.129

= - 0.28 / 0.129

= −2.170542

= - 2.171

Sam has the more convincing victory with a greater Zscore value

Write an equation parallel to 5x-4y=4 that passes through the point (-8,2)
ehidna [41]

Since the line is parallel, the same coefficients can be used for x and y. The constant on the right needs to change so that the given point will satisfy the equation.

... 5x - 4y = 5(-8) -4(2) = -40 -8 = -48

Your equation is

... 5x -4y = -48

Rachel deposited $200 into an account that earns 6% interest compounded twice a year for 10 years
Tanya [424]
<span>In order to calculate compounded interest, we use the formula: Final amount = initial amount x (increase rate)^(time periods). We know that the interest rate is 6%, so the factor we multiply by is 1.06. Moreover, the interest is compounded twice per year. This means that there will a total of 2 x 10 = 20 time periods over which the amount is compounded. Therefore, the final amount works out to be: Final amount = 200(1.06)^20, which is equivalent to $641.</span>
