The part of women who took part in the marathon and possessed a finishing time lower than Kathy post rounding it off to the next whole number would be:

- 66%

Given that,

The mean of women's finishing time = 259 minutes

The Standard deviation of women's finishing time = 32 minutes

Kathy's finishing time = 272 minutes

To find,

The part of women who took part in the marathon and possessed a finishing time lower than Kathy post rounding it off to the next whole number = ?

We will first determine Kathy's finishing time through z-score,

z-score = (272 - 259)/32

= 13/32

= 0.41 (after rounding to the next hundredth)

By employing the z-table

p (z)=0.41

= 0.6591

Post rounding off to next hundredth 0.6591 becomes %

Thus, 66% is the correct answer.

The proportion of women who ran the marathon and had a finishing time less than Kathy's is 66% (rounding to the next whole)

Explanation:

1. Let's review the information given to us to answer the question properly:

μ of finishing time for women = 259 minutes

σ of finishing time for women = 32 minutes

Finishing time for Kathy = 272 minutes

2. What proportion of women who ran the marathon had a finishing time less than Kathy's? Show your work.

Let's calculate the z-score for the finishing time for Kathy, as follows:

z-score = (272 - 259)/32

z-score = 13/32 = 0.41 (rounding to the next hundredth)

Using the z-table, now we can calculate the proportion of women who ran the marathon had a finishing time less than Kathy's:

p (z=0.41) = 0.6591

The proportion of women who ran the marathon and had a finishing time less than Kathy's is 66% (rounding to the next whole)

Answer from: Quest

ek = (m.v2) / 2

v - velocity of system after the collision

m = m1 + m2

ek = (m1 + m2) v2/2

ek = (200 + 250) 2,32/2 = 450*5,29/2 = 1190,25 j
