Answer:
700 apples
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
x = Total number of apples in the cart
Percentage of apples sold = 40%
Number of apples sold = Percentage of apples sold * Total number of apples in the cart
= 40% * x
= 0.4 * x
= 0.4x
Number of apples left in the cart = 420
Total number of apples in the cart = Number of apples sold + Number of apples left in the cart
x = 0.4x + 420
x - 0.4x = 420
0.6x = 420
x = 420/0.6
x = 700
x = Total number of apples in the cart = 700

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
You have to use your standard normal table (or calculator) for these. The area under the curve should be 1, a z-value corresponds to the probability and is area to the left of that z.
a. A simple reverse lookup of 0.9750. z=1.96
b. Total area up to z would be 0.5+0.4750, so reverse look up 0.9750 and find z=1.96
c. A simple reverse lookup. z=0.61
d. Area to the left of z would b 1-0.1314, so lookup 0.8686 and find z=1.12
e. A simple reverse lookup. z=0.44
f. Just invert the area: 1-0.33 = 0.67 and reverse lookup: z=0.44
