At the olympic games, many events have several rounds of competition. one of these events is the men's 100-meter backstroke. the upper dot plot shows the times (in seconds) of the top 8 finishers in the final round of the 2012 olympics. the lower dot plot shows the times of the same 8 swimmers, but in the semifinal round. which pieces of information can be gathered from these dot plots? (remember that lower swim times are faster.) choose all answers that apply: a: the swimmers had faster times on average in the final round. b: the times in the final round vary noticeably more than the times in the semifinal round. c: none of the above.

Which of the following equations are equivalent to -2m - 5m - 8 = 3 + (-7) + m? -15m = -4m -7m - 8 = m - 4 -3m - 8 = 4 - m m - 4 = -7m - 8 -8 - 7m = -4 + m -8 - 3m = 4 - m
