.85× 7=$5.95 so it's $5.95 to ensure seven packages at $0.85 each
Answer:
see explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
since y is inversely proportional to x the equation relating them is
y =
← k is the constant of proportionality
to find k use the given condition when y = 7, x = 9
k = yx = 7 × 9 = 63
y =
← is the equation connecting them
when x = 21, then
y =
= 3
We have to define an interval about the mean that contains 75% of the values. This means half of the values will lie above the mean and half of the values lie below the mean.
So, 37.5% of the values will lie above the mean and 37.5% of the values lie below the mean.
In a Z-table, mean is located at the center of the data. So the position of the mean is at 50% of the data. So the position of point 37.5% above the mean will be located at 50 + 37.5 = 87.5% of the overall data
Similarly position of the point 37.5% below the mean will be located at
50 - 37.5% = 12.5% of the overall data
From the z table, we can find the z value for both these points. 12.5% converted to z score is -1.15 and 87.5% converted to z score is 1.15.
Using these z scores, we can find the values which contain 75% of the values about the mean.
z score of -1.15 means 1.15 standard deviations below the mean. So this value comes out to be:
150 - 1.15(25) = 121.25
z score of 1.15 means 1.15 standard deviations above the mean. So this value comes out to be:
150 + 1.15(25) = 178.75
So, the interval from 121.25 to 178.75 contains the 75% of the data values.
