Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a Pythagorean theorem problem. You must do a^2+b^2=c^2

9^2+12^2=225

then, we must find the square root of 225 which is 15.

<span>As you have two fractions, you can cross multiply them. This gives: x/a = y/b to ay = xb. Then divide both sides by b to isolate x: ay/b = x.</span>

Answer:

2.28% probability that the mean amount of their monthly cell phone bills is more than $60

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.

Normal probability distribution

Problems of normally distributed samples are 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.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$ .
