Answer:

Percentage of armadillos between 13 and 17 years = 79.052%f using Standard Normal Distribution Tables

Step-by-step explanation:

As we know from normal distribution: z(x) = (x - Mu)/SD

where x = targeted value; Mu = Mean of Normal Distribution; SD = Standard Deviation of Normal Distribution

Therefore using given data: Mu = 14, SD = 1.2 we have z(x) by using z(x) = (x - Mu)/SD as under:

Approach 1 using Standard Normal Distribution Table:

z for x=17: z(17) = (17-14)/1.2 gives us z(17) = 2.5

z for x=13: z(13) = (13-14)/1.2 gives us z(13) = -0.83

Afterwards using Normal Distribution Tables we find the probabilities as under:

P(17) using z(17) = 2.5 gives us P(17) = 99.379%

Similarly we have:

P(13) using z(13) = -0.83 gives us P(13) = 20.327%

Finally in order to find out the probability between 17 & 13 years we have:

Percentage of armadillos between 13 and 17 years = P(17) - P(13) = 99.379% - 20.327% = 79.052%

The standard normal distribution table is being attached for yours easiness.

Approach 2 using Excel or Google Sheets:

P(17) = norm.dist(17,14,1.2,1)

P(13) = norm.dist(13,14,1.2,1)

Percentage of armadillos between 13 and 17 years = { P(17) - P(13) } * 100

My son, Garrett, is 11 years old and has a piggy bank that he wants to fill. He started with 5 one dollar bills. Every Saturday
Debora [2.8K]

Answer:

1) M(x) = 5 + 3x

2) Dependent variable; 3 dollar bills

Independent variable: chores

3) Range is continuous

Domain is discrete

4) Range: 0 ≤ x ≤ 10

Domain: 5 ≤ M ≤ 35

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told he started with 5 number of $1 dollar bills and that every Saturday, he earns 3 more $1 dollar bill.

Thus, total number of $1 bills earned after x number of Saturdays(weekly) is;

M(x) = 5 + 3x

After 10 weeks, total number is;

M(10) = 5 + 3(10)

M(10) = 35

The dependent variable is the 3 more dollar bills earned each Saturday because it depends on chores he completed. While the independent variable is the chores because it doesn't depend on anything.

After 10 weeks, the range and domain will be;

Range: 0 ≤ x ≤ 10

For the; Domain:

For x = 1, M(0) = 5 + 3(0) = 5

M(10) = 35

Thus;

Domain: 5 ≤ M ≤ 35

The range could be all numbers in the interval from 0 to 10. Thus, it is continuous.

Whereas, the domain doesn't contain all the numbers in the interval from 5 to 35. Thus it is Discrete.
