Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
a. z-score = -1.2
b. The age 23 years old is -1.2 standard deviations below the mean
c. The age is not unusual
Step-by-step explanation:
a. Transformation to z-score
Mathematically;
z-score = (x - μ)/σ
where σ and μ are the standard deviation and the mean respectively.
From the question, x = 23, μ = 27.2 and σ = 3.5
Let’s put these into the equation;
z-score = (23-27.2)/3.5 = -1.2
b. Interpretation of result
The interpretation is that 23 years old is -1.2 standard deviations below the mean
c. Determination
The age is not unusual. This is because any z-value below -2 or above 2 is considered unusual
-1.2 is above -2 and thus it is not unusual
Answer:
15%
Step-by-step explanation:
The cost of 2 adults and 2 children without the discount is
2 adults = 2 (55) = 110
2 children = 2 (45) = 90
Total cost = 110+90 = 200
The original price is 200 and the new price is 170
Percentage discount = (Original price - new price)/ original price * 100%
= (200-170)/200 * 100%
= 30/200 * 100%
= .15 * 100%
= 15%
