Your answer will be 1/55 or A because, at the beginning of the problem it states "you are one of 55 people" ((:
If the runner moves at 6 miles per hour for 2 hours before the cyclist starts, the runner has a 12 mile lead at the beginning. If the cyclist is going at 16 miles per hour, he is overtaking the runner at 10 miles per hour, because 16-6=10. Then, the amount of time it takes the cyclist to go 2 miles in 10 miles per hour is the answer. this is 1/5 of an hour, or 12 minutes.
<u>Answer:</u>
The Ranking Percentile is (B) 97.5%
<u>Explanation
:</u>
To find the percentile rank we need to find the z- score. After finding the z-score match this value with the corresponding value in z-score table.
Formula to find the z-score
Z-score=
Substituting the values in the above equation, we find
Z-score= 
=2
So, the Z-score is +2
Now, the corresponding value of Z-score 2 in the table is 0.9772
or the percentile score is 97.72 ~ 97.5
.
Divide the sides of the larger triangle by the corresponding side of the smaller one:
18/7.2 = 2.5
Figure A is 2.5 times the size of figure B
The scale factor is 2.5
