The answer would be 747.50! Because if you were wanting to decrease the price then you would multiply $299 by 40% So since you are wanting to add to the price then you would divide...Hope that makes since :)

Answer: The most he could pay the manufacturer for the blow up bed is $213.57

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, if Jay King wants a 40% markup on selling price, we can state that “x” is 140% of $299.

Mathematically speaking:

1.4 x = $299

Where:

1.4 = decimal form of the percentage (140/100 =1.4)

x = manufacturer's blow up bed maximum price

Solving for x:

x = 299/1.4 = 213.57

So, the most he could pay the manufacturer for the blow up bed is $213.57

Lisa has collected data to find that the number of pages per book on a book shelf has a normal distribution. What is the probabi
aev [14]

Answer:

2.5% probability that a randomly selected book has fewer than 133 pages.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Empirical Rule states that, for a normally distributed random variable:

68% of the measures are within 1 standard deviation of the mean.

95% of the measures are within 2 standard deviation of the mean.

99.7% of the measures are within 3 standard deviations of the mean.

In this problem, we have that:

Mean = 189 pages

Standard deviation = 28 pages

What is the probability that a randomly selected book has fewer than 133 pages?

133 = 189 - 2*28

So 133 is two standard deviations below the mean.

The Empirical Rule states that 95% of the measures are within 2 standard deviations of the mean. The other 5% is more than two standard deviations distant from the mean. The normal distribution is symmetric, which means that of those 5%, 2.5% are more than 2 standard deviations below the mean and 2.5% are more than 2 standard deviations above the mean.

This means that there is a 2.5% probability that a randomly selected book has fewer than 133 pages.

0.001374 as a standard form.<br><br> What’s the answer to this? No spam links plz.
butalik [34]

Step-by-step explanation:

0.001374

standard form means writing a value in shortened form, because sometimes values are too big or small to be written, so we use standard form.

in standard for the decimal always comes after the first digit

so,

1.374 \times  {10 }^{ - 3}

the decimal moves 3 digits to the right so it becomes ten raised to the power minus 3.
