Answer:

(a) 68%

(b) 0.3%

(c) 2.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Data</u>

  • mean = 100
  • standard deviation (sd) = 17

(a) mean - sd = 100 - 17 = 83

mean + sd = 100 + 17 = 117

The 68–95–99.7 rule states that 68% of the values are within mean ± 1 sd

(b) mean - 3*sd = 100 - 3*17 = 49

mean + 3*sd = 100 + 3*17 = 151

The 68–95–99.7 rule states that 100% - 99.7% = 0.3% of the values are beyond mean ± 3 sd

(c) mean + 2*sd = 100 + 2*17 = 134

The 68–95–99.7 rule states that 95% of the values are within mean ± 2 sd , this means that 5/2 = 2.5% of the values are below mean - 2 sd, and 2.5% are above mean + 2 sd

Her senior year of college, Giselle decides to live off campus. In order to cover rent, she wants to get a job as a waitress.
SCORPION-xisa [38]
She would have to work at least 12 hours.

At Chili’s, she would be paid 11.75x + 33 per week, with x being the number of hours she worked.

At the Cheesecake Factory, Giselle would be paid 14.50x per week, with x being how many hours she worked.

We want to know how many hours Gisele would have to work for her pay at the Cheesecake Factory to be more than her pay at Chili’s

The inequality 11.75x + 33 < 14.50x is what has to be set up to solve the problem. At how many hours will the pay on the left be less than the pay on the right?

11.75x + 33 < 14.50x
33 < 2.75x
12 < x

So Giselle has to work greater 12 hours a week for her to make more money at the Cheesecake Factory.
