AlexFokin [52]

Let the balance = Y and the number of weeks = x

She takes out 15 per week, so multiply 15 by x ( the number of weeks) to get 15x.

You would then want to subtract that from the amount she started with in her account.

The equation becomes: Y = 150 - 15x

Lina20 [59]

Answer: 97.72%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : A shoe manufacturer collected data regarding men's shoe sizes and found that the distribution of sizes exactly fits the normal curve.

Let x be the random variable that represents the shoe sizees.

Also, The population mean = $\mu=11$ ; Standard deviation: $\sigma=1.5$

Formula for z:-

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

Put x= 8, we get

$z=\dfrac{8-11}{1.5}=-2$

Now, the probability that the male shoe sizes are greater than 8 :-

$P(x>8)=P(z>-2)=1-P(z\leq-2)\\\\=1-0.0227501=0.9772499\approx0.9772$

Hence, the percent of male shoe sizes are greater than 8 is 97.72%.

One satellite is scheduled to be launched from Cape Canaveral in Florida, and another launching is scheduled for Vandenberg Air

Lisa [10]

Answer:

$P(A) = 0.45$

$P(B) = 0.32$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$P(A) > P(B)$

$P(A\ u\ B) = 0.626$

$P(A\ n\ B) = 0.144$

Required

Find P(A) and P(B)

We have that:

$P(A\ u\ B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A\ n\ B)$ --- (1)

and

$P(A\ n\ B) = P(A) * P(B)$ --- (2)

The equations become:

$P(A\ u\ B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A\ n\ B)$ --- (1)

$0.626 = P(A) + P(B) - 0.144$

Collect like terms

$P(A) + P(B) = 0.626 + 0.144$

$P(A) + P(B) = 0.770$

Make P(A) the subject

$P(A) = 0.770 - P(B)$

$P(A\ n\ B) = P(A) * P(B)$ --- (2)

$0.144 = P(A) * P(B)$

$P(A) * P(B) = 0.144$

Substitute: $P(A) = 0.770 - P(B)$

$[0.770 - P(B)] * P(B) = 0.144$

Open bracket

$0.770P(B) - P(B)^2 = 0.144$

Represent P(B) with x

$0.770x - x^2 = 0.144$

Rewrite as:

$x^2 - 0.770x + 0.144 = 0$

Expand

$x^2 - 0.45x - 0.32x + 0.144 = 0$

Factorize:

$x[x - 0.45] - 0.32[x - 0.45]= 0$

Factor out x - 0.45

$[x - 0.32][x - 0.45]= 0$

Split

$x - 0.32= 0 \ or\ x - 0.45= 0$

Solve for x

$x = 0.32\ or\ x = 0.45$

Recall that:

$P(B) = x$

So, we have:

$P(B) = 0.32 \ or \ P(B) = 0.45$

Recall that:

$P(A) = 0.770 - P(B)$

So, we have:

$P(A) = 0.770 - 0.32 \ or\ P(A) =0.770 - 0.45$

$P(A) = 0.45 \ or\ P(A) =0.32$

Since:

$P(A) > P(B)$

Then:

$P(A) = 0.45$

$P(B) = 0.32$
