Answer:

180 pages

Step-by-step explanation:

Since her photocopy session is 25 pages per minute, the total number of pages photocopied in 4 hour session can be calculated as;

number of pages = time × speed

                                 = (4 × 60) × 25

                                 = 240 ×25

                                 = 6000 pages

Thus, number of pages photocopied in 4 hours is 6000.

For every 100 pages, 3 would contain some type of printing error. The number of pages she expect with printing error during 4 hour session can be determined as;

           = \frac{6000}{100} × 3

           = 60 × 3

           = 180 pages

The expected number of pages with printing error during 4 hour photocopying session is 180 pages.

Answer:

z=1.28

And if we solve for a we got

a=3.6 +1.28*0.8=4.624

So the value of height that separates the bottom 90% of data from the top 10% is 4.624.

So then the best answer for this case would be:

 C. 4.64

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean".  

Solution to the problem

Let X the random variable that represent the weights of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

X \sim N(3.6,0.8)  

Where \mu=3.6 and \sigma=0.8

For this part we want to find a value a, such that we satisfy this condition:

P(X>a)=0.1   (a)

P(X   (b)

Both conditions are equivalent on this case. We can use the z score again in order to find the value a.  

As we can see on the figure attached the z value that satisfy the condition with 0.9 of the area on the left and 0.1 of the area on the right it's z=1.28. On this case P(Z<1.28)=0.9 and P(z>1.28)=0.1

If we use condition (b) from previous we have this:

P(X  

P(z

But we know which value of z satisfy the previous equation so then we can do this:

z=1.28

And if we solve for a we got

a=3.6 +1.28*0.8=4.624

So the value of height that separates the bottom 90% of data from the top 10% is 4.624.

So then the best answer for this case would be:

 C. 4.64

The value of y in the system of equations is:
nirvana33 [79]
Y=1
Explanation:
You have to plug 2+x into the y of the first equation. After you solve that you should get-1 as the answer for x so you plug -1 into the x of the second equation and the value of y would be 1.
