Based on the information given, the speed is 20 miles per hour.

From the information given, the winner of the local triathlon swam 0.5 miles, biked 15 miles and ran 2.5 miles and he finished the race in 54 minutes.

Note that 54 minutes = 0.9 hour.

The speed will be:

= (0.5 + 15 + 2.5) / 0.9

= 18/0.9

= 20 miles per hour.

In the largest clinical trial ever​ conducted, 401,974 children were randomly assigned to two groups. The treatment group consis
BARSIC [14]

Answer:

The requirements for the hypothesis test does satisfied the method for testing the claim that from two population proportions the rate of polio is less for children given the salk vaccine.

Step-by-step explanation:

The percentage of children in the treatment group was:

(201229/401974)*100 = 49.9%

The percentage of children given placebo was:

(200745/401974)*100 = 50.1%

The percentage of children that developed polio in the treatment group:

(33/200745)*100 = 0.0164%

The percentage of children that developed polio in the placebo group:

(115/201229)*100 = 0.0571%

The percentage difference between the two group:

((0.0571-0.0164)/0.0571) = 61.62%

Therefore:

The amount of children used for each group was almost divided into half of the total amount of children. The test revealed although very small percentages of the both group developed polio, 68.62% more children given placebo than the children that was given the salk vaccine. Therefore, the study shows that the rate of polio is less for children given the salk vaccine and the the hypthesis test is satisfied.

cestrela7 [59]
As this is probability, we can use the next formulas and tell how is this going to be:
P(A) = student on the dean's list 
<span>P(B) = student taking calculus </span>
<span>P(A n B) = 0.042 </span>
<span>P(A) = 0.21 </span>
<span>So, P(B) = 0.042/0.21 </span>
<span>= 0.2
So the probability here is of 0.2</span>
