Answer:

7170 is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

The original price is 6.5% more than what he actually paid. There are two ways to answer this.

  • First Way: Take 6.5% of 6732 which is (6.5/100) * 6732 = 437.58
  • Add this amount onto 6732. This will give you 6732 + 437.58 = 7169.58
  • The second way is slightly shorter. Add 6.5% onto 100% which =  106.5% of the paid amount. That should give you the second step directly.
  • (106.5 / 100 ) * 6732 = 7169.58

Who's is the solution set of the compound inequality 3.5x-10>-3 and 8x-9<39
velikii [3]
3.5x-10>-3  add 10 to both sides

3.5x>7  divide both sides by 3.5

x>2

... now for the other inequality:

8x-9<39  add 9 to both sides

8x<48  divide both sides by 3

x<6

So we have x>2 and x<6, so the compound inequality is:

2<x<6  and this means that the solution set is:

x=(2, 6)

The amounts a soft drink machine is designed to dispense for each drink are normally distributed, with a mean of 12.1 fluid ounc
Ludmilka [50]

Answer:

\mu = 12.1\\\sigma = 0.3

a) Find the probability that the drink is less than 11.9 fluid ounces

We are supposed to find P(x<11.9)

x= 11.9

We will use z score formula :

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

z=\frac{11.9-12.1}{0.3}

z=-0.67

Refer the z table

So, P(z<-0.67) = 0.2514

Hence the probability that the drink is less than 11.9 fluid ounces is 0.2514

b)Find the probability that the drink is between 11.6 and 11.9 fluid ounces

x= 11.6

We will use z score formula :

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

z=\frac{11.6-12.1}{0.3}

z=-1.67

x= 11.9

We will use z score formula :

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

z=\frac{11.9-12.1}{0.3}

z=-0.67

We are supposed to find P(11.6<x<11.9)

So, P(11.6<x<11.9)= P(x<11.9)-P(x<11.6)

P(-1.67<z<-0.67)= P(z<-0.67)-P(z<-1.67)

Refer the z table

P(-1.67<z<-0.67)= P(z<-0.67)-P(z<-1.67)

P(-1.67<z<-0.67)= 0.2514-0.0475

P(-1.67<z<-0.67)= 0.2039

So, the probability that the drink is between 11.6 and 11.9 fluid ounces is 0.2039.

c)Find the probability that the drink is more than 12.6 fluid ounces

We are supposed to find P(x>12.6)

x= 12.6

We will use z score formula :

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

z=\frac{12.6-12.1}{0.3}

z=1.67

Refer the z table

P(x>12.6)=1-P(x<12.6)

P(z>1.67)=1-P(z<1.67)

P(z>1.67)=1-0.9525

P(z>1.67)=0.0475

Hence  the probability that the drink is more than 12.6 fluid ounces is 0.0475

d) Is the drink containing more than 12.6 fluid ounces an unusual event?

Since p value is less than  alpha (0.05)

Answer = No, because the probability that a drink containing more than 12.6 fluid ounces is less than 0.05, this event is not unusual.
