Answer:

z=-1.99

z=1.99

And if we solve for a we got

a=288 -1.99*3.7=214.4

a=288 +1.99*3.7=295.4

And the limits for this case are: (214.4; 295.4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean".  

Solution to the problem

Let X the random variable that represent the annual precipitation of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

X \sim N(288,3.7)  

Where \mu=288 and \sigma=3.7

The confidence level is 95.44 and the signficance is 1-0.9544=0.0456 and the value of \alpha/2 =0.0228. And the critical value for this case is z = \pm 1.99

Using this condition we can find the limits

z=-1.99

z=1.99

And if we solve for a we got

a=288 -1.99*3.7=214.4

a=288 +1.99*3.7=295.4

And the limits for this case are: (214.4; 295.4)

Harriet earns the same amount of money each day. Her gross pay at the end of 7 workdays is 35h+56 dollars. Which expression repr
AnnyKZ [126]

Answer:

Gross pay for each day is 5h + 8 dollars.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Number of days = 7

Gross pay for 7 day = 35h+56 dollars.

We need to find the gross pay for each day

Also given Harriet earns the same amount of money each day.

Hence

For 7 days = 35h + 56 dollars

for 1 day = gross pay for each day.

By using Unitary method we get;

Gross pay for each day = \frac{35h + 56}{7} = \frac{35h}{7}+\frac{56}{7}= 5h+8

Hence gross pay for each day is 5h + 8.
