(a) What do the data show about women’s and men’s times in the marathon? (Start by plotting both sets of data on the same plot, using two different plotting symbols.)

(b) Based on these data, researchers (in 1992) predicted that women would outrun men in the marathon in 1998. How do you think they arrived at this date? Was their prediction accurate? (You may want to look on the Web; try doing a Google search on “women’s world record marathon times.”)
