In the first event, the eighth graders are running a baton relay race with three other classmates. The team’s top speed for each leg is 56.81 seconds, 59.22 seconds, 57.39 seconds, and 60.11 seconds. Use the information to predict the team’s best time for the race.

Match the following terms with their definitions. 1. bisector of a segment ray ba and ray bc are opposite rays if a, b, and c are collinear and b (the endpoint of both rays) is between a and c. 2. opposite rays a ray, , is the set of points beginning at point a and going infinitely in the direction of point b. 3. collinear points a line or segment that intersects the segment at its midpoint. 4. betweenness of points a set of two or more points all on the same line. 5. ray the distance between the endpoints of a segment. 6. space point b is between a and c if a, b, and c are collinear and the equation ab + bc = ac is true, where ab, bc, and ac are the distances between points a and b, b and c, and a and c, respectively. 7. midpoint of a segment a set of two or more points all on the same plane. 8. coplanar points the point on a segment that divides the segment into two equal segments. 9. length of a segment the set of all possible points. 10. line segment the set of two different endpoints and all points between them.

Astudent draws two parabolas on graph paper. both parabolas cross the x-axis at (-4, 0) and (6,0). the y-intercept of thefirst parabola is (0, –12). the y-intercept of the second parabola is (0-24). what is the positive difference between the avalues for the two functions that describe the parabolas? write your answer as a decimal rounded to the nearest tenth.

How can you find the mean absolute deviation (mad) for this set of data?
