Answer:

22.96% probability that a hotel room costs between $250.00 and $285.00

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this problem, we have that:

\mu = 244, \sigma = 55

What is the probability that a hotel room costs between $250.00 and $285.00?

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 285 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 250. So

X = 285

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{285 - 244}{55}

Z = 0.75

Z = 0.75 has a pvalue of 0.7734

X = 250

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{250 - 244}{55}

Z = 0.11

Z = 0.11 has a pvalue of 0.5438

0.7734 - 0.5438 = 0.2296

22.96% probability that a hotel room costs between $250.00 and $285.00

The transformation of a function may involve any change. The correct option is D.

<h3>How does the transformation of a function happen?</h3>

The transformation of a function may involve any change.

Usually, these can be shifted horizontally (by transforming inputs) or vertically (by transforming output), stretched (multiplying outputs or inputs), etc.

If the original function is y = f(x), assuming the horizontal axis is the input axis and the vertical is for outputs, then:

Horizontal shift (also called phase shift):

  • Left shift by c units, y=f(x+c) (same output, but c units earlier)
  • Right shift by c units, y=f(x-c)(same output, but c units late)

Vertical shift

  • Up by d units: y = f(x) + d
  • Down by d units: y = f(x) - d

Stretching:

  • Vertical stretch by a factor k: y = k \times f(x)
  • Horizontal stretch by a factor k: y = f(\dfrac{x}{k})

Given the function f(x)=2ˣ, while the h(x)=-3(2ˣ), therefore, the function f(x) is a reflection and a translation of a function. Hence, the correct option is D.
