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

we'd do the same as before on this one as well.

if we take 27.99 to be the 100%, what is 12 off of it in percentage?

\bf \begin{array}{ccll} amount&\%\\ \cline{1-2} 27.99&100\\ 12&x \end{array}\implies \cfrac{27.99}{12}=\cfrac{100}{x}\implies 27.99x=1200 \\\\\\ x=\cfrac{1200}{27.99}\implies x\approx 42.87
