Required probability is 0.8990

Given that,

p = 0.44

1 - p = 0.56

n = 736

\mu_\hat{p}} = p = 0.44\\\sigma_\hat{p}} = \frac{p*(1-p)}{n} = \sqrt(\frac{0.44*0.56)}{736} ) =0.01830

Converting Normal distribution to standard normal because  A normal distribution is determined by two parameters the mean and the variance. A normal distribution with a mean of 0 and a standard deviation of 1 is called a standard normal distribution. Hence it's easy to work with standard normal distribution.

P(0.14<\hat{p}<0.47) =  P((0.41-0.44)/0.01830) < \frac{\hat{p} - \mu _{\hat{p}}  }{\sigma _{\hat{p}} }<(0.47-0.44)/0.01830

Using normal algebra we get:

= P(-1.64 < z < 1.64)

= P(z < 1.64) - P(z < -1.64)

= 0.9495 - 0.0505

= 0.8990

Thus, required probability is 0.8990

A phone company offers two monthly plans. Plan A costs $10 plus an additional $0.15 for each minute of calls. Plan B costs $30 p
Mkey [24]

First, you need to write to expressions to model each situation:

Plan A: 10+0.15x

Plan B: 30+0.1x


Next, set the expressions equal to each other and solve for x:

10+0.15x=30+0.1x

<em>*Subtract 0.1x from both sides to isolate the variable*</em>

10+0.05x=30

<em>*Subtract 10 from both sides*</em>

0.05x=20

<em>*Divide both sides by 0.05*</em>

x=400


The plans would have the same cost after 400 minutes of calls.


To find how much money the plans cost at 400 minutes, plug 400 into either expression.  We'll use Plan A:

10+0.15(400)

10+60

70


The plans will cost $70.


Hope this helps!

Derek saves 10% of his paycheck each week to buy a mountain bike the mountain bike costs 340.00 Derek receives a paycheck in the
katrin2010 [14]

Answer: 13 weeks

Step-by-step explanation:

First you have to find 10% of 340.00 which is 28, so each week he saves 28.00 for his bike. To find how many paychecks he has to recieve you divide 340.00 by 28.00, which is 12.1, since there is a decimal place you have to round it up to 13 because it is a little bit more than 12 paychecks. ;)
