Eg 10 miles,
A: 85+0.1*10=86
B:40+0.2*10=42

eg 100 miles 
A: 85+0.1*100=95
B:40+0.2*100=60

eg 450 miles 
A: 85+0.1*450=130
B:40+0.2*450=130

so for it to cost less to rent from agency A, m has to be bigger than 450 miles

The points obtained by students of a class in a test are normally distributed with a mean of 60 points and a standard deviation
Paraphin [41]

Answer:

0.13% of students have scored less than 45 points

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this problem, we have that:

\mu = 60, \sigma = 5

About what percent of students have scored less than 45 points?

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 45. So

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{45 - 60}{5}

Z = -3

Z = -3 has a pvalue of 0.0013

0.13% of students have scored less than 45 points

nico cut out 15 red circles and 10 yellow circles. then he gave away some red circles. how many red circles does nico have left?
KIM [24]
If Nico gave away some red circles and you would like to know how many red circles does he have left, you can calculate this using the following step:

Nico has 15 red circles.
n ... the number of red circles that he gave away
15 - n ... the number of circles that Nico still has

The correct result would be 15 - n.

Apply the distributive property to create an equivalent expression.

The distributive property: a(b + c) = ab + ac


(-7c + 8d)0.6 = (-7c)(0.6) + (8d)(0.6) = -4.2c + 4.8d

Avery works on commission as a car saleswoman. She sold a car today that cost $8,000 and received a $400 commission. What percen
Vikentia [17]
 the answer i got was 5% , because all you have to do is perform a proportion . you put $400 which is what avery made over the total money of the sale which is $8,000 . then you put n the variable over 100 so you can find the percentage of her commission . now you have to cross multiply , so you would multiply $400 and 100 . & $8,000 with the variable n . in the end you'll get 400*100= 40,000 and 8,000n= 8,000n . now you would divide 40,000 by 8,000 to get rid of the 8,000 off the variable . so 40,000/8,000= 5 . so the percentage of her sale is actually hers is only 5% .
