$\frac{2~inches}{75~miles}=\frac{x~inches}{575~miles}\\\frac{1150}{75}=x\\\frac{46}{3}=x$

15.333 inches.

The number of students using the ATM on campus daily is normally distributed with a mean of 240 and a standard deviation of 50.

damaskus [11]

Answer:

The probability is 0.080757

Step-by-step explanation:

We start by calculating the z-score

z-score = (x-mean)/SD/ √n

In this case;

x = 247 , mean = 240, SD = 50 and n = 100

z-score = (247-240)/50/√100

z-score = 7/50/10

= 7/5 = 1.4

So the probability we want to calculate is;

P( x > 1.4)

we can use the standard normal distribution table for this

P(x > 1.4) = 0.080757
