Answer:
a) 18 cm
b) 18
c) 3
The Earl's height is unusual because the z score does not lies in the given range of usual i.e -2 and 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Mean height, μ = 174 cm
Standard deviation = 6 cm
height of Earl, x = 192 cm
a) The positive difference between Earl height and the mean = x - μ
= 192 - 174 = 18 cm
b) standard deviations is 18
c) Now,
the z score is calculated as:
or
or
z = 3
The Earl's height is unusual because the z score does not lies in the given range of usual i.e -2 and 2
Use multipliers:
The normal price the shop would sell the racquet for is:
1.6 * 200 = 320
'1.6' is the multiplier that I got using the percentage. Multiplying a value by 1.6 is the same as increasing the value by 60%. If you multiplied it by 0.1 (which is the same as dividing by 10), you would get just 10% of the value.
Back to the question, now we can use the multiplier 0.75 because we are are reducing the price by 25% (0.25 as a decimal), so:
320 * 0.75 = 240
And now we want just the profit so we take off how much it cost the shop to buy ($200): 240 - 200 = 40
