7 0

Answer:

15.87%

Step-by-step explanation:

First thing here is that we calculate the z-score which corresponds to 76

mathematically;

z-score = (x-mean)/SD

mean = 71 and SD = 5

plugging these values, we have;

z = (76-71)/5 = 5/5 = 1

Now, we want to firstly get the probability that we have a student shorter than 76 inches

The probability we want to calculate is P(z<1)

we can get this using the z-score table directly

That would be 0.15866

In percentage that is 15.866% which is 15.87% to the nearest tenth

13. A contractor buys 8.2 square feet of sheet metal.
Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

x = \frac{183}{6.7}  is the required equation.

The  Per sq ft of sheet costs $ 27.31.

Step-by-step explanation:

The total amount of sheet purchased =  8.8 sq. ft

The amount of sheet used = 2. 1 sq ft.

The worth of remaining sheet = $183

Let us assume the  cost per sq ft of sheet = $x

Now, the remaining sheet =

Amount of total sheet purchased- Amount of sheet used

= 8.8 sq. ft - 2. 1 sq ft. = 6. 7 sq. ft

So, the worth of the remaining sheet 6.7 sq ft is $183.

⇒ Worth of 1 sq ft of sheet = $183 /6.7 sq ft

or, x = \frac{183}{6.7}  = 27.31

or  x = $27.31

Hence, the  Per sq ft of sheet costs $ 27.31.
