Let's first figure out how much it flies in a hour,

560/5 = 112

8 x 112 = 896

given data

charges

$4 per bag

$10 weekly fee

let the number of bag be x

and let the total charges be y

<em>the linear function for the total per week is</em>

<em>y=4x+10</em>

Step two:

the independent variable is the weekly fee of $10

for x=14

y=4(14)+10

y=56+10

A person must get an IQ score of at least 138.885 to qualify.

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the zscore of a measure X is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

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:

$\mu = 115, \sigma = 17$
