Tara is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

The mean is the average of the numbers.

Number of hours      Sample A      Sample B

4                                   70                         80        

5                                  100                       90

6                                  125                       120

7                                  135                       125

8                                70                          85

The mean number of hours is :

\frac{4+5+6+7+8}{5} =\frac{30}{5}=6

Tara is correct as the mean is the average of the given data(hours).

F=ma

where F=force

m=mass

a=acceleration

Here,

F=4300

a=3.3m/s2

m=F/a

    =4300/3.3

    =1303.03kg

Approximately it is aqual to 1300kg

Let the father's age be x and son's be y

10 years before-

Father age=x-10

sons age=y-10

Given,

x-10=10(y-10)

x-10=10y-100

Given present age of father=40

therefore,

x=40

40-10=10y-100

10y-100=30

10y=130

y=130/10

y=13

Therefore present age of son=13years
