. Assume the amounts of charges are normally distributed.
a.what percentage of customers charges more than $380 per month?
b.what percentage of customers charges less than $340 per month?
c.What percentage of customers charges between $644 and $700 per month?

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the amounts of charges are assumed to be normally distributed,

we would apply the formula for normal distribution which is expressed as

z = (x - µ)/σ

Where

x = the amounts of charges.

µ = mean amount

σ = standard deviation

From the information given,

µ = $500

σ = $80

a) the probability that customers charges more than $380 per month is expressed as

P(x > 380) = 1 - P(x ≤ 380)

For x = 380,

z = (380 - 500)/80 = - 1.5

Looking at the normal distribution table, the probability corresponding to the z score is 0.067

P(x > 380) = 1 - 0.067 = 0.933

The percentage of customers that charges more than $380 per month is

0.933 × 100 = 93.3%

b) the probability that customers charges less than $340 per month is expressed as

P(x < 340)

For x = 340,

z = (340 - 500)/80 = - 2

Looking at the normal distribution table, the probability corresponding to the z score is 0.023

The percentage of customers that charges less than $340 per month is

0.023 × 100 = 2.3%

c) the probability that customers charges between $644 and $700 per month is expressed as

P(644 ≤ x ≤ 700)

For x = 644,

z = (644 - 500)/80 = 1.8

Looking at the normal distribution table, the probability corresponding to the z score is 0.96

For x = 700,

z = (700 - 500)/80 = 2.5

Looking at the normal distribution table, the probability corresponding to the z score is 0.994

P(644 ≤ x ≤ 700) = 0.994 - 0.96 = 0.034

The percentage of customers that charges between $644 and $700 per month is

0.034 × 100 = 3.4%

Find the slope of the line (-3,-3) (1,1)
Volgvan

Answer: The slope is m = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

-To find the slope, you need the slope formula:

m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}  where you have (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) on the equation.

-Next, you put the two points to the equation:

m=\frac{1+3}{1+3}

-And then you solve the equation:

m=\frac{1+3}{1+3}

m=\frac{1+3}{1+3}  = \frac{4}{4}=1

m=1

What is the range of the function f(x) = |x| – 3?
Likurg_2 [28]
Why not draw the graph of y=|x|?  It has a v-shape, and the vertex is at (0,0).

The graph of f(x) = |x| - 3 looks exactly the same, EXCEPT that the whole graph of |x| is shifted 3 units downward.  The smallest value that y can have is therefore -3.

Can you now figure out the range of f(x)?

vitfil [10]

Answer:

8x-20

Step-by-step explanation:

Distribute:

=(6)(2x)+(6)(−3)+(−2)(2x)+(−2)(1)

=12x+−18+−4x+−2

Combine Like Terms:

=12x+−18+−4x+−2

=(12x+−4x)+(−18+−2)

=8x+−20

Stacy has 6 fewer than half as many marbles as Mallory .If Stacy has thirty marbles how many does Mallory have
vodomira [7]

Answer:

72

Step-by-step explanation:

Stacy has 30 marbles

Let m= the number of marbles that mallory has

stacy has 1/2 m -6

30 = 1/2 m -6

Add 6 to each side

30+6 = 1/2m

36 = 1/2m

Multiply each side by 2

72 = m

Mallory has 72 marbles
