$\bf \begin{array}{lllll}
&x_1&y_1&x_2&y_2\\
% (a,b)
&({{ 5}}\quad ,&{{ 3}})\quad 
% (c,d)
&({{ 3}}\quad ,&{{ 1}})
\end{array}
\\\\\\
% slope = m
slope = {{ m}}= \cfrac{rise}{run} \implies 
\cfrac{{{ y_2}}-{{ y_1}}}{{{ x_2}}-{{ x_1}}}\implies \cfrac{1-3}{3-5}\implies \cfrac{-2}{-2}\implies 1$

Is it likely that the next 50 Sunday customers will spend an average of at least $40? Explain. Choose the correct answer below

Brrunno [24]

Answer:

B. Yes it is likely. The probability that the next 50 Sunday customers will spend an average of at least $40 is P=0.0023.

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>The question is incomplete:</em>

<em>A grocery store’s receipts show that Sunday customer purchases have a skewed distribution with a mean of $32 and a standard deviation of $20.</em>

We have to assume certain conditions to calculate the probability that the next 50 Sunday customers will spend an average of at least $40.

First, this 50 purchases are representative of the total purchases made in the store (the same as saying it is a random sample).

Second, the 10% condition: the 50 sales represent less than 10% of all purchases.

Third, the sample of 50 sales is large enough to make an approximation to the normal distribution.

If all these conditions are met, we can approximate the probabiltity that the next 50 Sunday customers will spend an average of at least $40.

We have a sampling distribution, with mean 32 (equal to the population mean) and standard deviation:

$\sigma_M=\dfrac{20}{\sqrt{50}}=\dfrac{20}{7.07}=2.83$

Then, we calculate the z-score

$z=\dfrac{X-\mu_M}{\sigma_M}=\dfrac{40-32}{2.83}=\frac{8}{2.83} =2.83$

The probabilty can be calculated then as:

$P(X_{50}>40)=P(z>2.83)=0.0023$

Which career would most heavily involve geometric concepts?

LiRa [457]

Answer:

Out of these careers, an engineer would be the most geometric involved career.

Step-by-step explanation:

This answer is true through the process of elimination. A stockbroker focuses on economy in order to choose the right stock. A statistician focuses on graphing and statistics in terms of math. An accountant is focused on simple math in order to deduct and add to the sum of the money. The engineer has to use geometry in order to design plans for constructions.
