Answer:

A. P(X<20,000) = 0.0392

B. P(20,000 < x < 30,000) = 0.488

C. Amount = $39,070

Step-by-step explanation:

From XO group website

Cost of a wedding = $29,858

Mean, μ = $29,858

Standard Deviation, σ =$5,600

a. Calculating the probability that a wedding costs less than $20,000

P(X<20,000)?

First, the z value needs to be calculated.

z = (x - μ)/σ

x = 20,000

z = (20,000 - 29,858)/5600

z = -1.76

So, P(X<20,000) = P(Z<-1.76)

From the z table,

P(Z<-1.76) = 0.0392

P(X<20,000) = 0.0392

b. Calculating the probability that a wedding costs between $20,000 and $30,000

P(20,000 < x < 30,000)

First, the z value needs to be calculated.

z = (x - μ)/σ

When x = 20,000

z = (20,000 - 29,858)/5600

z = -1.76

When x = 30,000

z = (30,000 - 29,858)/5600

z = 0.02

P(20,000 < x < 30,000) = P(-1.76 < z <0.02) --- using the z table

P(-1.76 < z <0.02) = 0.508 - 0.0392

P(-1.76 < z <0.02) = 0.4688

P(20,000 < x < 30,000) = 0.488

c. Using the following formula, we'll get the amount it'll a wedding to be among the 5% most expensive

z = (x - μ)/σ where x = amount

Make x the subject of formula

x = σz + μ

Fist we need to get the z value of 5%

z0.05 = 1.645

x = σz + μ becomes

x = 5600 * 1.645 + 29,858

x = $39,070

Amount = $39,070

beni is shopping for a new cell phone plan. company a charges$72.25for a new phone and $85.50 per month.company b charges $151.2
tigry1 [53]
Missing questions and subsequent solutions:
(a) Write an equation for company A for cost, C, number of months, n, that Beni will pay for the phone.

Solution:
For company A:
C = 72.25 + 85.50n

(b) Write an eqyation for company B for cost, C, and number of months, n, that Bei will pay for the phone.

Solution:
For company B:
C = 151.25 + 65.75n

(c) Write an inequality when the cost from company A is better than cost from company B.

Solution:
72.25 + 85.50n ≤ 151.25 + 65.75n
(85.50-65.75)n ≤ (151.25 - 72.25)
19.75 n ≤ 79
n ≤ 4

(d) Value of n for which cost from the two companies will be the same.

Solution:
If cost for companies A and B are the same, then
72.25 + 85.50n = 151.25 + 65.75n
(85.5 - 65.75)n = 151.25 - 72.25
19.75n = 79
 n = 79/19.75 = 4 months

After 4 months,
C = 72.25 + 85.5*4 = $414.25

Math homework please help new subject dont know it. (trolls = report)

Find area on triangle:
A=(1/2)bh
A=(1/2)(8 units)(6 units)
A=(1/2)(48 units^2)
A=24 units^2
Just do the same for the rest of this page following the equation for the area of a triangle A=(1/2)(base)(height)

Find the error:
A=(1/2)bh
100m^2=(1/2)b(20m)
100m^2=(10m)b
10m=b
He forgot to multiply bh by 1/2

Area of parallelogram:
A=bh
A=(3 units)(3 units)
A= 9 units^2
The red line is the height and the bottom of the parallelogram is the base, just count the squares. Imagine cutting the parallelogram at the red line and moving that triangle piece to the other side, it’ll make a rectangle, that’s why the equation is the same.

If a and b are two distinct rational numbers, then which of the following statements is true?
n200080 [17]

Answer:

Both are rational.

Step-by-step explanation:

As a rational number can be written in the form p/q where p,q are co-prime integers, let a=p1/q1 b=p2/q2.

And we know the product of two integers is an integer

p1q2, p2q1 are integers. And the sum or difference of two integers is rational, rather being specific, it is an integer.

Thus a+b and a-b is rational.
