Answer:

They spent $20

Step-by-step explanation:

You set up a proportion. 17 over x is equal to 85 over 100. Then you cross multiply to get 1700=85x.  Solve it by dividing either side by 85 and you get x=20.

ANSWER

1 bell shape

2 to find probability when sampling

EXPLANATION

1 In a normal distribution, the mode,mean and median are equal.

As a result, the distribution is neither skewed to the right or left.

The shape of the normal distribution looks like a bell.

That is why it is also called the bell curve.

2. The area under the normal curve is 1.

The line of symmetry of the bell shaped distribution divides it into two halves with area 0.5 each.

The normal curve is therefore used to find the probabilities of a sample distributions.

Using the given points, determine the slope. (5,-6)and(2,15)
Hunter-Best [27]
Subtract the y-coordinates. This is the rise.
Subtract the x-coordinates in the same order. This is the run.
Slope = rise/run.

Subtract the y-coordinates: -6 - 15 = -21. rise = -21
Subtract the x-coordinates in the same order:5 - 2 = 3. run = 3

slope = rise/run = -21/3 = -7

You drive 150 miles in 3 hours before stopping for 30 minutes to have lunch and gas.  After lunch you travel 100 miles in an hou
KiRa [710]
Average speed = total miles driven / total driving time
average speed = (150 + 100) / (3 + 1 1/2) =
                             250 / (4 1/2) =
                             250 / (9/2) =
                             250 * 2/9 =
                             500 / 9 = 55.55 mph
