Answer:

The probability that a family spends less than $410 per month

P( X < 410) = 0.1151

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>Step(i):-</em></u>

<em>Given mean of the population = 500 </em>

<em>Given standard deviation of the Population = 75</em>

Let 'X' be the variable in normal distribution

      Z = \frac{x-mean}{S.D}

<em>Given X = $410</em>

<em></em>Z = \frac{410-500}{75} = - 1.2<em></em>

<u><em>Step(ii):-</em></u>

The probability that a family spends less than $410 per month

P( X < 410) = P( Z < - 1.2 )

                  =  0.5 - A( -1.2)

                 = 0.5 - A(1.2)

                = 0.5 - 0.3849  ( ∵from normal table)

                = 0.1151

<u>Final answer:-</u>

The probability that a family spends less than $410 per month

P( X < 410) = 0.1151

Answer:

A. {3,4}

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the x values which would make the entire function undefined, you would have to factor the bottom equation. Factoring x^2+7x+12 gives you (x+3)(x+4). If you set each of these equal to 0, you end up with the x values being 3 and 4.

Sam has the lead role in the school play. He still has to memorize 1/2 of his lines. Suppose Sam memorizes 1/3 of his lines toda
DaniilM [7]

Answer: 1/6

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Sam has to memorize 1/2 of his lines and he memorizes 1/3 of his lines today, the fractions of his lines that he has left to memorize will be gotten by subtracting 1/3 from 1/2. This will be:

= 1/2 - 1/3

= 3/6 - 2/6

= 1/6

Therefore, he has 1/6 of his lines left to memorize.
