Answer:

=0.1587 or 15.87%

So option A is correct answer so 15.87% of the invoices were paid within 15 days of receipt.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the percent of the invoices paid within 5 days of receipt we have to find the value of Z first.

Z=\frac{X-u}{S}

where:

X is the random varable which in our case is 15 days

u is the mean or average value which is 20 days

S is the standard deviation which is 5 days

Z=\frac{15-20}{5}

Z=-1.0

We have to find Probability at Z less than -1

P(Z<-1.0) which can be written as:

=1-P(Z>1.0)

From Cumulative distribution table:

=1-(0.3413+0.5)

=0.1587 or 15.87%

So option A is correct answer so 15.87% of the invoices were paid within 15 days of receipt.

A given line has the equation 10x 2y=−2 . what is the equation, in slope-intercept form, of the line that is parallel to the giv
aivan3 [116]

The equation, in slope-intercept form, of the line that is parallel to the given line and passes through the point (0, 12) is y = -5x + 1

<h3>Equation of a line</h3>

A line is the distance between two points

Given the equation of a line expressed as 10x + 2y = -2. Determine the slope

2y = -10x -2

y = -5x - 1

Slope of the line is -5

The equation of a line in point-slope form is y - y1 = m(x-x1)

Substitute the point and the slope of the parallel line

y - 12 = -5(x  - 0)
y - 12 = -5x
y = -5x + 12

Hence the equation, in slope-intercept form, of the line that is parallel to the given line and passes through the point (0, 12) is y = -5x + 12

What is the decimal expansion of the following fraction?
pickupchik [31]
You haven't shared a fraction.  Please do that next time.

I checked and have found that 0.045 repeating over the 4 and 5 is equivalent to 1/22.  Try dividing 1 by 22 to verify this.

So I infer that the fraction you haven't yet shared is 1/22.
