Part a)
It was given that 3% of patients gained weight as a side effect.
This means
The mean is
The standard deviation is
We want to find the probability that exactly 24 patients will gain weight as side effect.
P(X=24)
We apply the Continuity Correction Factor(CCF)
P(24-0.5<X<24+0.5)=P(23.5<X<24.5)
We convert to z-scores.
Part b) We want to find the probability that 24 or fewer patients will gain weight as a side effect.
P(X≤24)
We apply the continuity correction factor to get;
P(X<24+0.5)=P(X<24.5)
We convert to z-scores to get:
Part c)
We want to find the probability that
11 or more patients will gain weight as a side effect.
P(X≥11)
Apply correction factor to get:
P(X>11-0.5)=P(X>10.5)
We convert to z-scores:
Part d)
We want to find the probability that:
between 24 and 28, inclusive, will gain weight as a side effect.
P(24≤X≤28)=
P(23.5≤X≤28.5)
Convert to z-scores:
There are 16 fruits in each of the boxes found under the stairs.
<h3>What is an
equation?</h3>
An equation is an expression used to show the relationship between two or more numbers and variables.
Let x represent the number of pears, hence:
Number of fruit in first box = 12 + (1/9)x
Number of fruit in second box = number of fruit in third box = (8/9)x ÷ 2 = (4/9)x
Therefore:
12 + (1/9)x = (4/9)x
x = 36
First box = second box = third box = (4/9) * 36 = 16
There are 16 fruits in each of the boxes found under the stairs.

Answer:
The correct option is 1.
Step-by-step explanation:
If a quadratic equation is defined as
.... (1)
Then the sum of the roots is -b/a and the product of roots is c/a.
The given equation is
... (2)
From (1) and (2) we get a=3, b=11 and c=-4.
The sum of roots is
The sum of roots is 
.
Therefore the correct option is 1.
In an internal operating income statement, the form is as such:
(1) Sales (or Revenue) - Total Variable Costs = Contribution Margin;
(2) Contribution Margin - Total Fixed Costs = Operating Income
and
(3) Contribution Margin Ratio = Contribution Margin/Sales
The first equation helps us out. Sales is the whole amount for this statement, or 100%. We know variable costs are 62% and the rest goes to the Cont. Margin.
100% - 68% = 32% (choice A)
