notka56 [123]

Answer:

77.88 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Mean (m) = 70

Standard deviation (s) = 10

For 80% of student to complete the exam. In the given time

Using the formula :

Zscore = (X - mean) / standard deviation

80th percentile = 80/100 = 0.8 has a Zscore = 0.7881

0.7881 = (X - 70) /10

0.7881 * 10 = X - 70

7.881 = X - 70

7.881 + 70 = X

77.881 = X

Hence, 77.88 minutes should be given

tatuchka [14]
This question shows you how to determine the amount of money Mr. Leonard makes in 4 weeks.  It takes his total salary, divides it by 52 (there are 52 weeks in a year), then multiplies it by 4 (you need 4 weeks worth of pay). 

This amount is shown as $6769.24.

He must pay the agency 22% of this, so change 22% to 0.22 and multiply it by the amount he makes in 4 weeks.

0.22 x 6769.24 = $1489.23

Mr. Leonard must pay the agency $1489.23 after the first 4 weeks.
