Answer:
171 newspapers.
Step-by-step explanation:
Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.
In a set with mean
and standard deviation
, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.
In this problem, we have that:

How many newspapers should the newsstand operator order to ensure that he runs short on no more than 20% of days
The number of newspapers must be on the 100-20 = 80th percentile. So this value if X when Z has a pvalue of 0.8. So X when Z = 0.84.




So 171 newspapers.
Answer:
2 3/8
Step-by-step explanation:
If what you're saying it 3 1/8 - 3/4 then...
3 1/8 - 3/4
3 1/8 - 6/8
25/8 - 6/8
19/8
2 3/8
The correct answer is Choice A) 367,274.
The chart for this data starts in the year 1960. We are looking for the population during year 2010. That is 50 years later.
To find the answer, just input 50 for t in the equation.
P(50) = 200(1.01223)^50
Our answer would be 134.6
