Well if three of them end up with the same lunch box and there are only 4 total lunch boxes, then that means all of them would get their original lunchbox.

For that to happen there is a 1/4 chance for each person to correctly pick their lunchboxes.

So it’s 1/4*1/4*1/4*1/4 and that equals to 1/256.

So there is a 1/256 chance that they will end up with their original lunch box.

Hope this helps!

Consider a value to be significantly low if its z score less than or equal to minus 2 or consider a value to be significantly hi
Readme [11.4K]

Answer:

The scores that are less than or equal to 10.8 are considered significantly low.

The scores that are greater than or equal to 32.4 are considered significantly high.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

Mean, μ = 21.6

Standard Deviation, σ = 5.4

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

Formula:

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

Significantly low score:

z \leq -2\\z = \displaystyle\frac{x-21.6}{5.4} \leq -2\\\\\displaystyle\frac{x-21.6}{5.4} \leq -2\\\\x\leq -2(5.4) + 21.6\\\Rightarrow x \leq 10.8

Thus, scores that are less than or equal to 10.8 are considered significantly low.

Significantly high score:

z \geq 2\\z = \displaystyle\frac{x-21.6}{5.4} \geq 2\\\\\displaystyle\frac{x-21.6}{5.4} \geq 2\\\\x\geq 2(5.4) + 21.6\\\Rightarrow x \geq 32.4

Thus, scores that are greater than or equal to 32.4 are considered significantly high.

jarptica [38.1K]

Answer:

Total amount pay for dinner = Rs 1,014

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Amount pay for food = Rs 900

Percentage of sales tax = 1%

Percentage of trip payment = 15%

Find:

Total amount pay for dinner

Computation:

Amount pay for sales tax = Amount pay for food x Percentage of sales tax

Amount pay for sales tax = 900 x 1%

Amount pay for sales tax = 900 x 0.01

Amount pay for sales tax = Rs 9

Amount pay for trip = Amount pay for food x Percentage of trip payment

Amount pay for trip = 900 x 15%

Amount pay for trip = 900 x 0.15

Amount pay for trip = Rs 105

Total amount pay for dinner = Amount pay for food + Amount pay for sales tax + Amount pay for trip  

Total amount pay for dinner = 900 + 105 + 9

Total amount pay for dinner = Rs 1,014
