Answer: a. 0.14085
b. 3.826 x 
c. 0.5437
d. 0.0811
Step-by-step explanation:
Given average amount parents and children spent per child on back-to-school clothes in Autumn 2010 , 
= $527
Given standard deviation , 
= $160
Let X = amount spent on a randomly selected child
Also Z = 
a. Probability(X>$700) = P( > 
) = P(Z>1.08125) = 0.14085 {Using Z % table}
b. P(X<100) = P( Z < 
) = P(Z< -2.66875) = P(Z > 2.66875) = 3.826 x
c. P(450<X<700) = P(X<700) - P(X<=450)
P(X<700) = 1 - P(X>=700) = 1 - 0.14085 = 0.8592
P(X<=450) = P(Z<= 
) = P(Z<= -0.48125) = P(Z<=0.48125) = 0.3155
So final P(450<X<700) = 0.8592 - 0.3155 = 0.5437
d. P(X<=300) = P(Z<= 
) = P(Z<= -1.4188) = P(Z>=1.4188) = 0.0811
All the above probabilities are calculated using Z % table along with interpolation between two values.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>7.5% less than 120 </u>
- 120 - 7.5% of 120 =
- 120(1 - 7.5/100) =
- 120*0.925 =
- 111
You sure seem to be asking a lot of questions lately. I'd like to see that you've been trying with these problems at least because if you can't get that first one it's almost like you missed the whole lesson.
1. 20 = 4b + 7 + 5
Add the 7 and 5.
20 = 4b + 12
Subtract 12 from each side.
8 = 4b
Divide each side by 4.
2 = b
2. 7 = 6k - 7k
6k - 7k = -1k. (the k acts as a sort of unit)
7 = -1k
Divide each side by -1.
-7 = k
3. 3.23 - 2m = 3 - 2(5m - 2)
Distribute the ×-2 to each term inside the parentheses.
3.23 - 2m = 3 - 10m + 4
Add the 3 and 4.
3.23 - 2m = 7 - 10m
Add 10m to each side.
3.23 + 8m = 7
Subtract 3.23 from each side.
8m = 3.77
Divide by 8.
m = 0.47125
4. -88/45=1/3r+2/5r
To get rid of the fractions, let's multiply everything by 45.
-88 = 15 + 18r
Subtract 15 from each side.
-103 = 18r
Divide by 18.
-103/18 = r
As a mixed number, r = -5 and 13/18
As a decimal, r = -5.7222...
