Answer:

7.83 km/h

Step-by-step explanation:

At her constant pace, Nina's time for 6 km will be found by the proportion ...

(time for 6 km)/(6 km) = (time for 9 km)/(9 km)

time for 6 km = (6 km)/(9 km) × (75 min) = 50 min

Jo's time for the same distance will be 4 minutes less: 50 -4 = 46 min. Jo's speed is ...

speed = distance/time

= (6 km)/(46/60 h) = 360/46 h ≈ 7.83 km/h . . . . Jo's speed

_____

Additional comment

From the 6 km point, the remaining race is half the distance already run, so will take half the time already taken. As we know, Nina will finish in 25 more minutes; Jo will finish in 46/2 = 23 more minutes, 2 minutes ahead of Nina.

Eva8 [605]

Answer:

a) Z-score = 0.75

b) Z-score = -32.833

Step-by-step explanation:

Step(i):-

Given that mean of the Population = 33

Given a standard deviation of the Population = 12

Let 'X' be a random variable in a normal distribution

Let 'X' = 42

Step(ii):-

$Z = \frac{x-mean}{S.D}$

$Z = \frac{42-33}{12} = 0.75$

Step(iii):-

Given that mean of the Population = 89

Given a standard deviation of the Population = 1

Let 'X' be a random variable in a normal distribution

Let 'X⁻ = 82

$Z = \frac{x^{-} -mean}{\frac{S.D}{\sqrt{n} } }$

$Z = \frac{82-89}{\frac{1}{\sqrt{22} } } = -32.833$

Z-score = -32.833

Answer this in two minutes

Hey there! :)

Answer:

y = x - 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Slope = 1

Point on line: (8, 5)

Plug these into the formula y = mx + b, where:

m = slope

x = x coordinate of point

y = y coordinate of point

5 = 1(8) + b

5 = 8 + b

Subtract both sides by 8:

5 - 8 = 8 -8 + b

-3 = b

Rewrite the equation:

y = x - 3.

Answer:

40,885,048

Step-by-step explanation:

first find 3^12 and then find 7^9.

3^12 = 531,441

7^9 = 40,353,607

Add these together and you'll get 40,885,048.

Welcome! Hope this helps.
