Answer:

12.08

Step-by-step explanation:

For each sunflower, there are only two possible outcomes. Either it germinates, or it does not. The probability of a sunflower germinating is independent of other sunflowers. So we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

Probability of exactly x sucesses on n repeated trials, with p probability.

The standard deviation of the binomial distribution is:

\sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)}

Seventy-six percent of sunflower seeds will germinate into a flower

This means that p = 0.76

Samples of 800:

This means that n = 800

The standard deviation for the number of sunflower seeds that will germinate in such samples of size 800 is:

\sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)} = \sqrt{800*0.76*0.24} = 12.08

A jar of natural peanut butter normally cost four dollars today it's on sale for $3.60 what is the percentage of the discount
kakasveta [241]
$4 is the original price of the jar consisting of peanut butter so therefor it = 100%. It's for sale at $3.60, so we divide $4 by 100% so we get the percentage for each cent and then we times it by 3.60 to get the percentage for $3.60 which is 90%. Now we subtract 90% from 100% to get the discounted percentage for 40cents :)
