A book is sold in Belize for 80.39 Belize dollars.
In Brazil, it sells for 63.65 Brazilian reals.

The exchange rate of US Dollars to Belize Dollars is 1:1.9246
<span>The exchange rate of US Dollars to Brazilian Real is 1:1.7880
</span>
If we convert the two into dollars,
Belize Dollars 
1 : 1.9246 = X : <span>80.39 
1.9246X = 80.39
X = $ 41.77 

</span>Brazilian Real
1 : 1.7880 = X : <span>63.65 </span><span> 
</span>1.7880X = <span>63.65 </span><span>
X = $ 35.60
</span>
Difference = $ 41.77 - $ 35.60
Difference = $ 6.17

So, in Belize the book is more expensive by $ 6.17

Assume that x has a normal distribution with the specified mean and standard deviation. Find the indicated probability. (Round y
tino4ka555 [31]

Answer:

0.8762 or 87.62%

Step-by-step explanation:

Since our mean is μ=14.3 and our standard deviation is σ=3.7.  If we're trying to figure out what percentage is P(10 ≤ x ≤ 26) equal to we must first calculate our z values as such:

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

Our x value ranges from 10 to 26 therefore let x=10 and we obtain:

z=\frac{10-14.3}{3.7} =-1.16\\

If we look at our z-table we find that the probability associated with a z value of -1.16 is 0.1230 meaning 12.30%.

Now let's calculate the z value when x = 26 and so:

z=\frac{26-14.3}{3.7}=3.16\\

Similarly, we use the z-table again and find that the probability associated with a z value of 3.16 is 0.9992 meaning 99.92%.

Now we want to find the probability in between 10 and 26 so we will now subtract the upper limit minus the lower limit in P(10 ≤ x ≤ 26) therefore:

0.9992 - 0.1230 = 0.8762

or 87.62%

What is the 32nd term of 311, 305, 299
nata0808 [166]

Answer:

503

Step-by-step explanation:

For an arithmetic sequence, the n-th term is found by

a_n = a_1 + (n - 1)d

To find d (the common difference) we can simply subtract one of the terms by the last, for example:

d = 299 - 305 \\d = -6 \\

The common difference must be the same throughout the entire sequence, so we can do it once more just to be sure:

d = 305 - 311\\d = -6

We also have to know that a_1 stands for the first term of the sequence, which in this case is 311.

Now that we know this, let's find the 32nd term

a_{32} = 311 + (32 - 1)-6\\a_{32} = 311 + 192\\a_{32} = 503

Good luck!
