Answer:

Percentile 5

z=-1.64

And if we solve for a we got

a=24.2 -1.64*2.6=19.94

Percentile 95

z=1.64

And if we solve for a we got

a=24.2 +1.64*2.6=28.46

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X the random variable that represent the variable of interest of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

X \sim N(24.2,2.6)  

Where \mu=24.2 and \sigma=2.6

We want to find the percentiles 5 and 95 for this case.

Percentile 5

For this part we want to find a value a, such that we satisfy this condition:

P(X>a)=0.95   (a)

P(X   (b)

We want to find a percentile with 0.95 of the area on the left and 0.05 of the area on the right it's z=-1.64. On this case P(Z<-1.64)=0.05 and P(z>-1.64)=0.05

Using this condition we got:

P(X  

P(z

Replacing we got:

z=-1.64

And if we solve for a we got

a=24.2 -1.64*2.6=19.94

Percentile 95

z=1.64

And if we solve for a we got

a=24.2 +1.64*2.6=28.46

9.) The relation can not be a function only if the domain is the same. If you plot the points on a graph and use the Vertical Line Test(VLT) you would see that none of the points would be on the same line. It doesn't matter if the range is the same

10.)On the graph your y-intercept would be 2 so that is where you plot your first point. In order to find the slope you need to go up three spaces and one space to the left this is also known as "rise over run". *Remember you always go up spaces for "rise over run" but if the slope is positive then you go to the right and if its negative you go to the left.

I hope this helps love! :)

In how many years will the interest of a sum of rs 3600 at the rate of 5.5% per year be rs 594?​
boyakko [2]

Answer:

In 3 years, the interest of a sum of rs 3600 at the rate of 5.5% per year be Rs 594.

Step-by-step explanation:

T = ?

R = 5.5%

P = Rs 3600

I = Rs 594

so

T = (I×100)/(P×R)

or, T = (594×100)/(3600×5.5)

or, T = 59400/19800

so, T = 3 yrs
