Tim Worker is doing his budget. He discovers that the average electric bill for the year was $206.00 with a standard deviation o

f $10.00. What percent of his expenses in this category would he expect to fall between $184.00 and $200.00?
The z for $184.00 = -

The percent of area associated with $184.00 = %

The z for $200.00 = -

The percent of area associated with $200.00 = %

Subtracting the two percentages, the percent of expenses between $184.00 and $200.00 is %

Answer:

  • -2.2
  • 1.4%
  • -0.6
  • 27.4%
  • 26%
<h3>Step-by-step explanation:</h3>

The z-value is computed from ...

... z = (x -µ)/σ

... z = (184 -206)/10 = -2.2 . . . . for $184

... z = (200 -206)/10 = -0.6 . . . . for $200

You can look up these values in a normal distribution table, or you can use an appropriate calculator to find the corresponding percentiles.

... -2.2 corresponds to the 1.390 percentile. (That amount of area is below -2.2 standard deviations from the mean.)

... -0.6 corresponds to the 27.425 percentile.

Subtracting the two percentages gives the percentage of expenses between $184 and $200. That number is 26.035% ≈ 26%.

<em>Comment on the calculator display</em>

The difference that got cut off from the display in the attachment is ...

... 0.2603496703

The <em>normalcdf( )</em> function requires a lower limit. Using -8 standard deviations is effectively equivalent to -∞ for this purpose, as any lower number has no effect on the least-significant digits of the result.

The perimeter of a rectangle is 12x + 4. If the width is 2x,<br> the length of the rectangle is
DENIUS [597]

Answer:

4x+2

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter = 2(width) + 2(length). So 12x+4 = 2(2x) + 2(length) .

12x+4 = 4x + 2(length) then subtract 4x from both sides to get 8x+4 = 2(length). In order to get length by itself you need to divide both side by 2.

4x+2 = length. Hope this helps!

Solve for the indicated variable. Include all of your work in your answer. Submit your solution. P = 3r + 2s; for s.
madam [21]
<h3>Given</h3>

P = 3r + 2s

<h3>Find</h3>

the corresponding equation for s

<h3>Solution</h3>

First of all, look at how this is evaluated in terms of what happens to a value for s.

  1. s is multiplied by 2
  2. 3r is added to that product

To solve for s, you undo these operations in reverse order. The "undo" for addition is adding the opposite. The "undo" for multiplication is division (or multiplication by the reciprocal).

... P = 3r + 2s . . . . . . starting equation

... P - 3r = 2s . . . . . . -3r is added to both sides to undo addition of 3r

... (P -3r)/2 = s . . . . . both sides are divided by 2 to undo the multiplication

Note that the division is of everything on both sides of the equation. That is why we need to add parentheses around the expression that was on the left—so the whole thing gets divided by 2.

Your solution is ...

... s = (P - 3r)/2
