Answer:

A) k = 0.3

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the constant of proportionality k in each case and compare

y = kx

16k = 4.80 ⇒ k = 4.80/16 ⇒ k = 0.3

32k = 6.40 ⇒ k = 6.40/32 ⇒ k = 0.2

12k = 1.20 ⇒ k = 1.20/12 ⇒ k = 0.1

9k = 1.80 ⇒ k = 1.80/9 ⇒ k = 0.2

As we see k = 0.3 is the highest one

The number of books borrowed from a library each week follows a normal distribution. When a sample is taken for several weeks, t

Marat540 [252]

$\mathbb P(X>250)=\mathbb P\left(\dfrac{X-190}{30}>\dfrac{250-190}{30}\right)=\mathbb P(Z>2)\approx0.0228$

Or, if you're familiar with the empirical rule and the basic properties of the normal distribution, you can use the fact that approximately $95/%$ of the distribution lies within two standard deviations of the mean, or

$\mathbb P(|Z|$

which means about $5\%$ of the distribution lies outside this interval, or

$\mathbb P((-22))\approx0.05$

Because the distribution is symmetric, you have

$\mathbb P(-22)$
$\implies \mathbb P((-22))=\mathbb P(-22)=2\mathbb P(Z>2)\approx0.05$
$\implies \mathbb P(Z>2)\approx 0.025$
