3packs of soda is 10 dollars less than 5 packs of soda equation

RideAnS [48]3 years ago

Ok. so lets call the cost of each soda x. now, 3 packs of soda is 10 less than five packs of soda. so the price of 3 packs of soda is 3x, the price of five packs is 5x. now, it says that 3 packs is 10 less than five packs. that means that 3x=5x-10.
now, to find the price of a pack of soda, we have to isolate x.
add 10 to both sides to get 3x+10=5x. now, we subtact 3x on both sides to get 10=2x. divide by 2 on both sides, x=5. a pack of soda is 5 dollars

Suppose it is known that the distribution of purchase amounts by customers entering a popular retail store is approximately norm
iragen [17]

Answer:

a. 0.691

b. 0.382

c. 0.933

d. $88.490

e. $58.168

f. 5th percentile: $42.103

95th percentile: $107.897

Step-by-step explanation:

We have, for the purchase amounts by customers, a normal distribution with mean $75 and standard deviation of $20.

a. This can be calculated using the z-score:

z=\dfrac{X-\mu}{\sigma}=\dfrac{85-75}{20}=\dfrac{10}{20}=0.5\\\\\\P(X

The probability that a randomly selected customer spends less than $85 at this store is 0.691.

b. We have to calculate the z-scores for both values:

z_1=\dfrac{X_1-\mu}{\sigma}=\dfrac{65-75}{20}=\dfrac{-10}{20}=-0.5\\\\\\z_2=\dfrac{X_2-\mu}{\sigma}=\dfrac{85-75}{20}=\dfrac{10}{20}=0.5\\\\\\\\P(65

The probability that a randomly selected customer spends between $65 and $85 at this store is 0.382.

c. We recalculate the z-score for X=45.

z=\dfrac{X-\mu}{\sigma}=\dfrac{45-75}{20}=\dfrac{-30}{20}=-1.5\\\\\\P(X>45)=P(z>-1.5)=0.933

The probability that a randomly selected customer spends more than $45 at this store is 0.933.

d. In this case, first we have to calculate the z-score that satisfies P(z<z*)=0.75, and then calculate the X* that corresponds to that z-score z*.

Looking in a standard normal distribution table, we have that:

P(z

Then, we can calculate X as:

X^*=\mu+z^*\cdot\sigma=75+0.67449\cdot 20=75+13.4898=88.490

75% of the customers will not spend more than $88.49.

e. In this case, first we have to calculate the z-score that satisfies P(z>z*)=0.8, and then calculate the X* that corresponds to that z-score z*.

Looking in a standard normal distribution table, we have that:

P(z>-0.84162)=0.80

Then, we can calculate X as:

X^*=\mu+z^*\cdot\sigma=75+(-0.84162)\cdot 20=75-16.8324=58.168

80% of the customers will spend more than $58.17.

f. We have to calculate the two points that are equidistant from the mean such that 90% of all customer purchases are between these values.

In terms of the z-score, we can express this as:

P(|z|

The value for z* is ±1.64485.

We can now calculate the values for X as:

X_1=\mu+z_1\cdot\sigma=75+(-1.64485)\cdot 20=75-32.897=42.103\\\\\\X_2=\mu+z_2\cdot\sigma=75+1.64485\cdot 20=75+32.897=107.897

5th percentile: $42.103

95th percentile: $107.897
