Answer:
The probability is 0.9938
Step-by-step explanation:
In this question, we are asked to calculate the probability that the mean blood pressure readings of a group of people is less than a certain reading.
To calculate this, we use the z score.
Mathematically;
z = (mean - value)/(standard deviation/√N)
From the question, we can identify that the mean is 125, the value is 123 , the standard deviation is 9.6 and N ( total population is 144)
Let’s plug these values;
z = (125-123)/(9.6/√144) = 2.5
Now we proceed to calculate the probability with a s score less than 2.5 using statistical tables
P(z<2.5) = 0.9938

The number of presale tickets sold is 271
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
Let "p" be the number of presale tickets sold
Let "g" be the number of tickets sold at gate
<em><u>Given that, total of 800 Pre-sale tickets and tickets at the gate were sold</u></em>
Therefore,
Presale tickets + tickets sold at gate = 800
p + g = 800 ------ eqn 1
<em><u>Given that, number of tickets sold at the gate was thirteen less than twice the number of pre-sale tickets</u></em>
Therefore,
Number of tickets sold at gate = twice the number of pre-sale tickets - 13
g = 2p - 13 ------- eqn 2
<em><u>Let us solve eqn 1 and eqn 2</u></em>
Substitute eqn 2 in eqn 1
p + 2p - 13 = 800
3p -13 = 800
3p = 800 + 13
3p = 813
p = 271
Thus 271 presale tickets were sold
