Answer:

0.0423 is the probability that the adult female has a height less than 61.3 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

Mean, μ = 65.3 inches

Standard Deviation, σ = 2.32 inches

We are given that the distribution of adult female height is a bell shaped distribution that is a normal distribution.

Formula:

z_{score} = \displaystyle\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

P(adult female has a height less than 61.3 inches)

P( x < 61.3) = P( z < \displaystyle\frac{61.3 - 65.3}{2.32}) = P(z < -1.7241)

Calculation the value from standard normal z table, we have,  

P(x < 61.3) =0.0423 = 4.23\%

0.0423 is the probability that the adult female has a height less than 61.3 inches.

sukhopar [10]

Answer:

(b) \$24,169.60

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:  Cost of car is \$22,346.16

            Sales tax is 7.6\%    

             The license and title  charges are \$125.13

To find: The amount that the credit union will finance.

Solution:

We have,  

Cost of car=\$22,346.16  

Sales tax is 7.6\% of \$22,346.16

Therefore,  

sales tax =\frac{7.6}{100}\times22,346.16=\$1698.31

The license and title  charges =\$125.13

Now, the amount that the credit union will finance is

cost of car+sales tax+the license and title  charges

=\$22346.16+\$1698.31+\$125.13

=\$24,169.60

Hence, the amount that the credit union will finance is \$24,169.60.

So, (b) \$24,169.60 is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{x - 9}{15}  =  \frac{2x - 9}{10}  \\

\frac{x - 9}{3}  =  \frac{2x - 9}{2}  \\

2( x - 9) = 3(2x - 9) \\

2x - 18 = 6x - 27

27 - 18 = 6x - 2x

9 = 4x

x =  \frac{9}{4} \\
