Given Information:

John's mean monthly commission = μ = $10,000

Standard deviation of monthly commission = σ =  $2,000

Answer:

P(9,000 < X < 11,000) = 0.383\\\\P(9,000 < X < 11,000) = 38.3 \%

The probability that John's commission from the jewelry store is  between $9,000 and $11,000 is 38.3%

Step-by-step explanation:

What is Normal Distribution?

We are given a Normal Distribution, which is a continuous probability distribution and is symmetrical around the mean. The shape of this distribution is like a bell curve and most of the data is clustered around the mean. The area under this bell shaped curve represents the probability.  

We want to find out the probability that John's commission from the jewelry store is  between $9,000 and $11,000?

P(9,000 < X < 11,000) = P( \frac{x - \mu}{\sigma} < Z < \frac{x - \mu}{\sigma} )\\\\P(9,000 < X < 11,000) = P( \frac{9,000 - 10,000}{2,000} < Z < \frac{11,000 - 10,000}{2,000} )\\\\P(9,000 < X < 11,000) = P( \frac{-1,000}{2,000} < Z < \frac{1,000}{2,000} )\\\\P(9,000 < X < 11,000) = P( -0.5 < Z < 0.5 )\\\\P(9,000 < X < 11,000) = P( Z < 0.5 ) - P( Z < -0.5 ) \\\\

The z-score corresponding to 0.50 is 0.6915

The z-score corresponding to -0.50 is 0.3085

P(9,000 < X < 11,000) = 0.6915 - 0.3085 \\\\P(9,000 < X < 11,000) = 0.383\\\\P(9,000 < X < 11,000) = 38.3 \%

Therefore, the probability that John's commission from the jewelry store is  between $9,000 and $11,000 is 38.3%

How to use z-table?

Step 1:

In the z-table, find the two-digit number on the left side corresponding to your z-score. (e.g 1.4, 2.2, 0.5 etc.)

Step 2:

Then look up at the top of z-table to find the remaining decimal point in the range of 0.00 to 0.09. (e.g. if you are looking for 0.50 then go for 0.00 column)

Step 3:

Finally, find the corresponding probability from the z-table at the intersection of step 1 and step 2.

In the sequence 3 8 13 18 what term of the series is the number 2218
77julia77 [94]
By clearly looking at the sequence there are in Arithmetic Progression
So for finding which term is 2218 in that sequence
we have  x_{n} = a+ (n-1)d
Here,
a=3
 x_{n}=2218 & d=5(by looking at the sequence given)
by substituting those values we get our desired result
2218=3+(n-1)5
2218-3=(n-1)5
2215=(n-1)5
2215/5=n-1
453=n-1
n=454
so 454 term is 2218

How do you do this???????????????????
Akimi4 [234]
The volume of water that goes into the hose is the same as the volume of water that comes out the nozzle. This means the velocity is inversely proportional to the area. The area is proportional to the square of the diameter.

Taken together, these facts mean that if the diameter is divided by a factor of 3, the velocity is multiplied by a factor of 3^2 = 9.

Nozzle velocity = 3^2 * entering velocity
.. = 9 * (4 m/s)
Nozzle velocity = 36 m/s . . . . . . . . . corresponding to selection A
