The distribution of the amount of money spent by students for textbooks in a semester is approximately normal in shape with a me
zimovet [89]

Answer:

Option D) $275

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

Mean, μ = $235

Standard Deviation, σ = $20

We are given that the distribution of amount of money spent by students is a bell shaped distribution that is a normal distribution.

Formula:

z_{score} = \displaystyle\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

We have to find the value of x such that the probability is 0.975

P( X < x) = P( z < \displaystyle\frac{x - 235}{20})=0.975  

Calculation the value from standard normal z table, we have,  

P( z < 1.960) = 0.975

\displaystyle\frac{x - 235}{20} = 1.960\\x =274.2 \approx 275

Approximately 97.5% of the students spent below $275 on textbook.

<h3><u>Answer</u> :</h3>

\bigstar\:\boxed{\bf{\purple{x^{\frac{m}{n}}}=\orange{(\sqrt[n]{x})^m}}}

Let's solve !

:\implies\sf\:25^{\frac{3}{2}}

:\implies\sf\:(\sqrt[2]{25})^3

:\implies\sf\:5^3

:\implies\boxed{\bf{\red{125}}}

A waitress sold 15 ribeye steak dinners and 18 grilled salmon​ dinners, totaling ​$559.81 on a particular day. Another day she s
Orlov [11]

Let  the steaks = X and the salmon = y.

Set up two equations:

15x + 18y = 559.81

19x + 9y = 583.66

Now using the elimination method:

Multiply the second equation by -2, then add the equations together.

(15x+18y=559.81)

−2(19x+9y=583.66)

Becomes:

15x+18y=559.81

−38x−18y=−1167.32

Add these equations to eliminate y:

−23x=−607.51

Divide both sides by -23 to solve for x:

x= -607.51 = -23 = 26.413478

Now you have the cost for a steak.

To solve for the cost of the salmon, replace x with the value in the first equation and solve for y.

15(26.413478) + 18y = 559.91

396.202174 + 18y = 559.81

Subtract 396.202174 from both sides:

18y = 163.607826

Divide both sides by 18:

y = 163.607826 / 18

y = 9.089324

Round both x and Y to the nearest cent:

X (Steaks) =$26.41

Y (Salmon) = $9.09
