Answer: A is 36.82%. B is 35.5%

Step-by-step explanation: For manufacturer A 22/19 chian discount simply means 22% discount followed by 19% discount.

Therefore we have 100-22= 78 and 100-19=81.

The final price would be 0.78*0.81=0.6318

Therefore discount would be

1 - 0.6318=0.3682

Hence, percentage discount would be 0.3682*100%=36.82%.

For manufacturer B 25/14 chian discount means 25% discount followed by 14% discount. So we have 100-25=75% and 100-14= 86%

Final price would be 0.86*.75=0.645.

Discount= 1 - 0.645= 0.355.

Percentage discount would be 0.355*100%=35.5%.

A certain standardized test's math scores have a bell-shaped distribution with a mean of 530 and a standard deviation of 119. Co
kumpel [21]

Answer:

a) 68.2%

b) 31.8%

c) 2.3%

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

Mean, μ = 530

Standard Deviation, σ = 119

We are given that the distribution of math scores is a bell shaped distribution that is a normal distribution.

Formula:

z_{score} = \displaystyle\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

a) P(test scores is between 411 and 649)

P(411 \leq x \leq 649)\\\\= P(\displaystyle\frac{411 - 530}{119} \leq z \leq \displaystyle\frac{649-530}{119})\\\\= P(-1 \leq z \leq 1)\\\\= P(z \leq 1) - P(z < -1)\\= 0.841 - 0.159 = 0.682 = 68.2\%

b) P(scores is less than 411 or greater than 649)

P(x < 411 < x, x > 649)\\=1 = P(411 \leq x \leq 649)\\=1 - 0.682\\=0.318 = 31.8\%

c) P(score greater than 768)

P(x > 768)

P( x > 768) = P( z > \displaystyle\frac{768 - 530}{119}) = P(z > 2)

= 1 - P(z \leq 2)

Calculation the value from standard normal z table, we have,  

P(x > 768) = 1 -0.977 = 0.023 = 2.3\%

A married couple together earns 110,000 a year. The wife earns 16,000 less than twice what her husband earns.what does the husba
Alex17521 [72]
If we place what the husband earns as h and what the wife earns as w, we can begin...
w + h = 110000

but w = 2h - 16000

We can turn it into..

2h - 16000 + h = 110000

Which we can then combine into..

3h - 16000 = 110000

Add 16000 and..

3h = 126000

Divide by three...

h = 42000

(nice)

The husband earns 42,000$ a year

Bonus: The wife then earns 68,000$

42,000 (or h) + 68,000 (or w) = 110,000

Because this is the original equation, we are correct.
