Answer:

Amount each friend pays for the gift = $20

Step-by-step explanation:

Market price of a gift = $70

The store manager takes $10 off the market price.

Marked down amount = $10

New cost price = Marked price - Marked down amount =\$70-\$10=\$60

The cost of the gift is divided among three friends.

This means that the cost of gift which is $60 is divided by three to get each one's contribution in the gift.

∴ Amount each friend pays for the gift =\frac{60}{3}=\$20

A statistician uses Chebyshev's Theorem to estimate that at least 15 % of a population lies between the values 9 and 20. Use thi
rjkz [21]

Answer:

\mu = 14.5\\

\sigma = 5.071\\

k = 1.084

Step-by-step explanation:

given that a  statistician uses Chebyshev's Theorem to estimate that at least 15 % of a population lies between the values 9 and 20.

i.e. his findings with respect to probability are

P(9

Recall Chebyshev's inequality that

P(|X-\mu |\geq k\sigma )\leq {\frac {1}{k^{2}}}\\P(|X-\mu |\leq k\sigma )\geq 1-{\frac {1}{k^{2}}}\\

Comparing with the Ii equation which is appropriate here we find that

\mu =14.5

Next what we find is

k\sigma = 5.5\\1-\frac{1}{k^2} =0.15\\\frac{1}{k^2}=0.85\\k=1.084\\1.084 (\sigma) = 5.5\\\sigma = 5.071

Thus from the given information we find that

\mu = 14.5\\\sigma = 5.071\\k = 1.084
