To determine price per lb, divide dollar amount by lbs.
- Company A sells 2 1/2lbs (2.5lbs) for $32.50
So, Company A's price / lb = ($32.50/2.5lbs) = $13.00/lb

- Company B sells 2 3/4lbs (2.75lbs) for $35.00
And, Company B's price / lb = ($35.00/2.75lbs) = $12.73/lb

Therefore, Company B is offering the lowest price/lb at $12.73/lb.

Trucks in a delivery fleet travel a mean of 110 miles per day with a standard deviation of 38 miles per day. The mileage per day
Montano1993 [528]

Answer: 0.1824

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The mileage per day is distributed normally with

Mean : \mu=110\text{ miles per day}

Standard deviation :  \sigma=38\text{ miles per day}

Let X be the random variable that represents the distance traveled by truck in one day .

Now, calculate the z-score :-

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

For x= 132 miles per day.

z=\dfrac{132-110}{38}\approx0.58

For x= 159 miles per day.

z=\dfrac{159-110}{38}\approx1.29

Now by using standard normal distribution table, the  probability that a truck drives between 132 and 159 miles in a day will be :-

P(132

Hence, the probability that a truck drives between 132 and 159 miles in a day =0.1824
