In 1763, Britain was in debt as a result of the Seven Year's War. In an attempt to pay this, and obtain more money for troops, the Crown imposed on the 13 colonies a series of laws and taxes.

People resented and rejected them actively, through protests and riots, because they thought that was just the introduction to worse, more controlling policies in the future, and they weren't willing to let that happen.

Some of the Acts were:

The Sugar Act (1764)
The Currency Act (1764)
The Stamp Act (1765)
The Townshend Act (1767)
The Tea Act (1773)
The Coercive or Intolerable Acts (1774)

An hourly wage is normally distributed with a mean of $6.75 and a standard deviation of $0.55. What is the probability that an e

monitta

Answer:

Option A. 81.5%

Explanation:

Population mean, $\mu = 6.75$

Standard deviation, $\sigma = 0.55$

The question is to find $p(5.65 < \bar{x} < 7.30)$

The z value is given by the formula:

$z = \frac{\bar{x} - \mu}{\sigma}$

z - value corresponding to the mean, $\bar{x} = 5.65$ :

$z_1 = \frac{5.65 - 6.75}{0.55}\\z_1 =-2.0$

z - value corresponding to the mean, $\bar{x} = 7.30$ :

$z_1 = \frac{7.30 - 6.75}{0.55}\\z_1 =1.0$

$p(5.65\leq \bar{x} \leq 7.30) = p(-2.0 \leq z \leq 1.0)\\p(-2.0 \leq z \leq 1.0) = p(z\leq 1) - p(z\leq -2)\\ p(-2.0 \leq z \leq 1.0) = 0.84134 - 0.02275\\p(-2.0 \leq z \leq 1.0) = 0.81859 \\p(-2.0 \leq z \leq 1.0) = 0.82$
