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.

Para encher 2/5 de uma piscina são necessários 60.000 litros de água. Qual é a capacidade dessa piscina?
natali 33 [55]

Answer:

A capacidade dessa piscina é de 150.000 litros de água.

Step-by-step explanation:

A capacidade da piscina é de x.

Para encher 2/5 de uma piscina são necessários 60.000 litros de água.

Isto implica que:

\frac{2x}{5} = 60000

2x = 60000*5

x = \frac{60000*5}{2}

x = 150000

A capacidade dessa piscina é de 150.000 litros de água.
