Marco purchased a large box of comic books for $300. He gave 15 of the comic books to his brother and then sold the rest on an i

Yuri [45]

Answer: There are 75 books.

Price of each book = $4.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = Number of books in the box.

Then as per given,

Cost of x books = $300

Cost of one book = $\$(\dfrac{300}x)$

Books left after giving 15 of them = x-15

Selling price of (x-15) books= $330

Selling price of one book = $\$(\dfrac{330}{x-15})$

Profit on each book= $1.50

Profit = selling price - cost price

$\Rightarrow 1.50=\dfrac{330}{x-15}-\dfrac{300}{x}\\\\\Rightarrow\ 1.50=\dfrac{330(x)-300(x-15)}{x(x-15)}\\\\\Rightarrow\ 1.50=\dfrac{330x-300x+4500}{x^2-15x}\\\\\Rightarrow\ 1.50(x^2-15x)=30x+4500\\\\\Rightarrow\ 1.50x^2-22.5x=30x+4500\\\\\Rightarrow\ 1.50x^2-52.5x-4500=0\\\\\Rightarrow\ 1.50x^2-52.5x-4500=0\\\\\Rightarrow\ x^2-25x-3000=0\ \ [\text{divide by 1.5}]$

$\Rightarrow (x+40)(x-75)=0\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=-40,75$

Number of books cannot be negative.

So, there are 75 books.

Price of each book = $\dfrac{300}{75}=\$4$

So price of each book = $4.

Suppose that you are an elementary school teacher and you are evaluating the reading levels of your students. You find an indivi

Answer:

The child's reading level is at the 3.4th percentile.

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Probability Distribution:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the z-score of a measure X is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

You do some research and determine that the reading rates for their grade level are normally distributed with a mean of 90 words per minute and a standard deviation of 24 words per minute.

This means that $\mu = 90, \sigma = 24$
