Answer:

B. 84%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Mean= π=75

Standard Deviation= σ=5

As we have to calculate the percentage of score less than 80, we will find the z-score of 80

z=(x-μ)/σ

=  (80-75)/5

=5/5

=1

The z-score table value for 1 is 0.8413.

For converting this value into percentage, the value will be multiplied by 100.

So,

Percentage of students whose score is less than 80 = 0.8413*100

=84.13%

Rounding off gives us : 84%

So option B is the correct answer..

A student got a summer job at an electronics store. the student is given two different compensation plans. plan A pays a weekly
kykrilka [37]
They will make the same amount after 10 phones sold. Before that Plan A is the better plan. After 10, Plan B is the better plan. 

You can find the point of intersection by modelling the two equations and setting them equal to each other. If x is equal to phones sold:

250 + 25x = 50x
250 = 25x
10 = x

Therefore, you make the same at 10 phones.
