The Students' Conjectures: Two students, Ernest and Denise, are training for a swim half-marathon in 10 weeks, and they disagree about their training schedule. If they follow Ernest's suggested training schedule, will they be ready to swim 5 km in time for the half-marathon?
Complete the table to summarize each student's suggested training schedule. (2 points: 1 point for each row of the chart)

Making a Decision
Which training schedule will get them ready to swim 5 km in time for the half-marathon? (1 point)
It is 6% because if you subtract 69-58=6 so 6% is the answer to your question.

Let hh represent the number of hummingbirds and ss represent the number of sunbirds that must pollinate the colony so it can survive until next year. 6h+4s > 746h+4s> 74 this year, 88 hummingbirds pollinated the colony. what is the least number of sunbirds that must pollinate the colony to ensure that it will survive until next year?
Suppose babies born after a gestation period of 32 to 35 weeks have a mean weight of 25002500 grams and a standard deviation of 800800 grams while babies born after a gestation period of 40 weeks have a mean weight of 27002700 grams and a standard deviation of 385385 grams. if a 3232-week gestation period baby weighs 21252125 grams and a 4040-week gestation period baby weighs 23252325 grams, find the corresponding z-scores. which baby weighs lessless relative to the gestation period?
