d do research) earn an average of $125,572 per year with a standard deviation of $18,328. Associate professors (who are working towards tenure and do research) earn an average of $90,101 per year with a standard deviation of $12,741. Lecturers (whose primary responsibility is teaching and do not earn tenure) earn an average of $59,707 per year with a standard deviation of $7,386. Assume all three populations are normally distributed.

We standardize the $100,000 as a z score of

z = (100,000 - 125572)/18328 = -1.395

That's 1.4 standard deviations below the mean.   We look up the area of the standard normal from -infinity to -1.40 standard deviations and find

P(salary < $100,00) = 0.08076 = 8%

Account (A) is a saving account , the interest earned after 1 year is $12 .If the interest rate is 3.2% for account (A). How muc
BaLLatris [955]

Answer:

The principal for the account is $375.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a simple interest problem.

The simple interest formula is given by:

E = P*I*t

In which E is the amount of interest earned, P is the principal(the initial amount of money), I is the interest rate(yearly, as a decimal) and t is the time.

The interest earned after 1 year is $12 .If the interest rate is 3.2% for account (A).

This means, respectively, that t = 1, E = 12, I = 0.032

We want to find P.

E = P*I*t

12 = P*0.032*1

P = \frac{12}{0.032}

P = 375

The principal for the account is $375.
