Answer:

Bianca's height = 42 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the Bianca height.

Given:

Meredith height = 60 inches

We need to find the Bianca height.

Solution:

From the given statement the Meredith's height is \frac{2}{3} of Bianca's height plus 32 inches, so the equation is.

Meredith's height = \frac{2}{3}(Bianca\ height)+32

Substitute Meredith's height in above equation.

60=\frac{2}{3}x+32

Now we solve the above equation for x.

\frac{2}{3}x=60-32

\frac{2}{3}x=28

By cross multiplication.

x=\frac{3\times 28}{2}

28 divided by 2.

x= 3\times 14

x=42\ in

Therefore, the height of the Bianca is 42 inches.

Let x be a random variable representing the price of a Congo-imported black diamond. Let the higher price be p. Then,
P(x < p) = P(x < (p - mean)/sd) = P(x < (p - 60,430)/21,958.08) = P(z < 2)
Therefore,
(p - 60,430)/21,958.08 = 2
p - 60,430 = 2 x 21,958.08 = 43,916.16
p = 34,916.16 + 60,430 = 104.346.16

Therefore, The required price is $104,346.16
