Answer:

The percentage is P(350 <  X  650 ) = 86.6\%

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The population mean is  \mu  =  500

     The standard deviation is  \sigma  =  100

The  percent of people who write this exam obtain scores between 350 and 650    

    P(350 <  X  650 ) =  P(\frac{ 350 -  500}{ 100}

Generally  

               \frac{X -  \mu }{\sigma }  =  Z (The \  standardized \  value \ of  \  X )

   P(350 <  X  650 ) =  P(\frac{ 350 -  500}{ 100}

   P(350 <  X  650 ) =  P(-1.5

   P(350 <  X  650 ) =  P(Z < 1.5) -  P(Z <  -1.5)

From the z-table  P(Z <  -1.5 )  =  0.066807

   and P(Z < 1.5  ) =  0.93319

=>    P(350 <  X  650 ) =  0.93319 -  0.066807

=>  P(350 <  X  650 ) = 0.866

Therefore the percentage is  P(350 <  X  650 ) = 86.6\%

An aerosol can contains gases under a pressure
slavikrds [6]

Answer:

temperature on the beach = T2 = 34.56 °C

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given;

P1 = 4.5 atm

T1 = 24 °C = 24 + 273 = 297 K

P2 = 4.66 atm

Thus, P1/T1 = P2 /T2

So, T2 = P2•T1/P1

Thus, T2 = (4.66x 297)/4.5

T2 = 307.56 K

Let's convert to °C to obtain ;

T2 = 307.56 - 273

T2 = 34.56 °C
