What percent of 50 is 18

1 answer:

4 0

Greetings!

To find the percent of a number, you mutliply the percent by the number, then divide by 100. We can use this rule to create an equation:
$50*x/100=18$
Multiply both sides by 100.
$(50x/100)*100=(18)*100$
Simplify.
$50x=1800$
Divide both sides by 50.
$(50x)/50=(1800)/50$
Simplify.
$x=36$

36% of 50 is 18.

Hope this helps.

In a population of similar households, suppose the weekly supermarket expense for a typical household is normally distributed wi

Rina8888 [55]

Answer:

P(Y ≥ 15) = 0.763

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Mean =135

standard deviation = 12

sample size n = 50

sample mean $\overline x$ = 140

Suppose X is the random variable that follows a normal distribution which represents the weekly supermarket expenses

Then,

$X \sim N ( \mu \sigma)$

The probability that X is greater than 140 is :

P(X>140) = 1 - P(X ≤ 140)

$P(X>140) = 1 - P( \dfrac{X-\mu}{\sigma} \leq \dfrac{140-135}{12})$

$P(X>140) = 1 - P( \dfrac{X-\mu}{\sigma} \leq \dfrac{5}{12})$

$P(X>140) = 1 - P( Z\leq0.42)$

From z tables,

$P(X>140) = 1 - 0.6628$

$P(X>140) = 0.3372$

Similarly, let consider Y to be the variable that follows a binomial distribution of the no of household whose expense is greater than $140

Then;

$Y \sim Binomial (np)$

$Y \sim Binomial (50,0.3372)$

∴

P(Y ≥ 15) = 1- P(Y< 15)

P(Y ≥ 15) = 1 - ( P(Y=0) + P(Y=1) + P(Y=2) + ... + P(Y=14) )

$P(Y \geq 15) = 1 - \begin {pmatrix} ^{50}_0 \end {pmatrix} (0.3372)^0 (1-0,3372)^{50} + \begin {pmatrix} ^{50}_1 \end {pmatrix} (0.3372)^1 (1-0,3372)^{49} + \begin {pmatrix} ^{50}_2 \end {pmatrix} (0.3372)^2 (1-0,3372)^{48} +... + \begin {pmatrix} ^{50}_{50{ \end {pmatrix} (0.3372)^{50} (1-0,3372)^{0}$

P(Y ≥ 15) = 0.763
