Answer: 20 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Imagine that each person is assigned one wall, and all 5 people begin painting at the same time.

Since everyone will finish painting their assigned wall after 20 minutes, it takes one person 20 minutes to paint one wall.

If we have 9 people and 9 walls, we can again assign one wall to each person.

Everyone will take 20 minutes to paint their assigned wall.

In other words, it takes 20 minutes for 9 people to paint 9 walls.

Scores on the Wechsler intelligence quotient (IQ) test are normally distributed with a mean score of 100 and a standard deviatio

rosijanka [135]

15.87% of the population does not meet the minimum standards.

We use z-scores to find this probability:

z=(X-μ)/σ = (85-100)/15 = -15/15 = -1

Using a z-table (http://www.-table.com) we see that the area to the left of, less than, this is 0.1587. This is 15.87%.

The population of a school and is increasing at a rate of 2%per year;6yearsPLEASE HElp <br> Thanks

Shkiper50 [21]

Answer:

It can be modeled with the equation $A=P(1.02)^6$ but needs a starting population number to finish.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the population in a future year, use the formula:

$A = P (1+/-r)^t$

where A is the amount, p is the starting population, r is 2% or 0.02, and t is the number of years.

Since the population is increasing it is addition. Substitute r=0.02 and t=6. Without a starting population, we cannot find the population in 6 years.

$A = P (1+r)^t\\A=P(1+0.02)^6\\A=P(1.02)^6$
