The expected completion time is μ = 40 weeks.
The random variable, X = 38 weeks (the probable time)

If the standard deviation is σ, then the z-score is z = (x - μ)/σ.

Let us test the given standard deviations.
When σ=1,
z = (38-40)/1 = -2
From standard tables,
P(x<=38) = P(z<=-2) = 0.0228 =2.3%

When σ=2,
z = (38*40)/2 = -1
P(x<=38) = P(z<=-1) = 0.1587 = 15.9%

When σ=4,
z = (38-40)/4 = -0.5
P(x<=38) = P(z<=-0.5) = 0.3085 = 30.9%

Answers:
z=1 => 2.3%
z=2 => 16% (approx)
z=4 => 31% (approx)

Answer:

m = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{15}{10}  =  \frac{m}{4}

15 \times 4 = 10m

60 = 10m

\frac{60}{10}  =  \frac{10m}{10}

6 = m

Janelle likes to keep all her savings goals separate, so she has an account for each one , including an account to save for her
Darya [45]

Answer:

Her online savings account is the one I will recommend.

Step-by-step explanation:

I will say the online savings account is the best option. This is because when looking at this as a whole, I don't think there are that many alternatives she can think of especially when we consider that she saves just $550 every 6 months. Thus, the 0.75% interest rate for her online savings account is very much okay. Therefore, even if she was able to get another option that had a slightly better interest above the 0.75%, I don't think it that will be too much of a difference.
