Answer:
47.54% probability that more than 20 households but fewer than 35 households receive a retirement income
Step-by-step explanation:
We use the binomial aproxiation to the normal to solve this question.
Binomial probability distribution
Probability of exactly x sucesses on n repeated trials, with p probability.
Can be approximated to a normal distribution, using the expected value and the standard deviation.
The expected value of the binomial distribution is:
The standard deviation of the binomial distribution is:
Normal probability distribution
Problems of normally distributed samples can be solved using the z-score formula.
In a set with mean and standard deviation
, the zscore of a measure X is given by:
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.
When we are approximating a binomial distribution to a normal one, we have that ,
.
In this problem, we have that:
. So
In a random sample of 120 households, what is the probability that more than 20 households but fewer than 35 households receive a retirement income?
We are working with discrete values, so this is the pvalue of Z when X = 35-1 = 34 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 20 + 1 = 21.
X = 34
has a pvalue of 0.9993
X = 21
has a pvalue of 0.5239
0.9993 - 0.5239 = 0.4754
47.54% probability that more than 20 households but fewer than 35 households receive a retirement income
14. (2x - 1)(x + 7) = 0
Using the zero factor property, we know that either the first or second terms (or both) must be equal to 0 if their product is 0. We can set each term equal to 0 to find the solutions:
2x - 1 = 0
2x = 1
x = 1/2
x + 7 = 0
x = -7
15.
To solve this equation, you first need to set it equal to 0:
Next, it can be factored:
Finally, we can solve just like we did above:
x + 5 = 0
x = -5
x - 2 = 0
x = 2
16.
First, you can simplify by dividing each side by 4:
Now, set the equation equal to 0:
Next, factor:
Finally, find the solutions:
x + 5 = 0
x = -5
x - 5 = 0
x = 5

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Q1</u>
⇒ Graph A is most accurate as the situation is linear and the dots indicate per cup as you can't have any rational part (such as 0.5 cups, etc.)
<u>Q2</u>
⇒ A
⇒ The graph is discrete because the sellers have limited the purchaser to buy a distinct whole number of cups
