Answer: 12 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's set the speed as "s".

Remember that distance = speed * time

So, plugging the numbers given...

7 = s * 8.4

Divide both sides by 8.4

s = 5/6

Now, plug this into the distance = speed * time, with the distance being 10. Set the time as "t"

10 = 5/6 * t

Divide both sides by 5/6

12 = t

So, it would take 12 hours for the snail to crawl 10 miles.

I have a problem with statistics. What are p-values?

Rashid [163]

A p-value is the probability of getting, in another study, a test statistic that is more extreme than the one obtained in your study if a series of assumptions hold.

The complete question in the attached figure

we have that
between beats 2 and 3----------> (392-261.6)=130.4-------> increases
between beats 3 and 4----------> (392-392)=0-----> it stays with the same value
between beats 4 and 5----------> (444-392)=52--------> increases
between beats 5 and 6----------> (444-444)=0-----> it stays with the same value
between beats 6 and 7----------> (392-444)=-52-------> decreases

the answer is
between beats 6 and 7----------> (392-444)=-52-------> decreases
