Answer:

z=-2.33

And if we solve for a we got

a=48000 -2.33*5500=35185

And for this case the answer would be 35185 the lowest 1% for the salary

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X the random variable that represent the salary, and for this case we can assume that the distribution for X is given by:

X \sim N(48000,5500)  

Where \mu=48000 and \sigma=5500

And we want to find a value a, such that we satisfy this condition:

P(X>a)=0.99   (a)

P(X   (b)

We can use the z score again in order to find the value a.  

As we can see on the figure attached the z value that satisfy the condition with 0.01 of the area on the left and 0.99 of the area on the right it's z=-2.33. On this case P(Z<-2.33)=0.01 and P(z>-2.33)=0.99

If we use condition (b) from previous we have this:

P(X  

P(z

But we know which value of z satisfy the previous equation so then we can do this:

z=-2.33

And if we solve for a we got

a=48000 -2.33*5500=35185

And for this case the answer would be 35185 the lowest 1% for the salary

Look at the picture.

1 unit right (+1); 2 units down (-2)

A(1, 3) → A'(1+1, 3-2) → A'(2, 1)

B(4, 5) → B'(4+1, 5-2) → B'(5, 3)

C(3, 1) → C'(3+1, 1-2) → C'(4, -1)

d.

(x, y) → (x + 1, y - 2)

What is the vertex of y=x^2+4x+3
AnnyKZ [126]

Answer:

(-2, -1)

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a quadratic equation in standard form, and a = 1, b = 4 and c = 3.

The x-coordinate of the vertex is given by the formula

        -b                                                                         -4

x = --------- which here has the numerical value x = -------- = -2

        2a                                                                           2

Finally, we evaluate y=x^2+4x+3 at x = -2 to find the y-coordinate of the vertex:

y = (-2)^2 + 4(-2) + 3 = -1

The vertex is at (-2, -1).

3.56 as a fraction simplified
Artemon [7]
This has to do with place value.....the 3, since it is on the left of the decimal, is a whole number. The last number (6) is in the hundredths place..
so it is 3 56/100 which reduces to 3 14/25
