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.

What is the perimeter of the shape below, given a = 9.60, b = 9.33, c = 4.46, d = 8.56, e = 8.61
GalinKa [24]

Answer:

The perimeter of the shape is of 40.56 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter of a shape:

The perimeter of a shape is the sum of the lengths of all its sides.

In this question:

The sides are a = 9.60, b = 9.33, c = 4.46, d = 8.56, e = 8.61.

So

P = a + b + c + d + e = 9.6 + 9.33 + 4.46 + 8.56 + 8.61 = 40.56

The perimeter of the shape is of 40.56 units.
