Answer:

0.8762 or 87.62%

Step-by-step explanation:

Since our mean is μ=14.3 and our standard deviation is σ=3.7.  If we're trying to figure out what percentage is P(10 ≤ x ≤ 26) equal to we must first calculate our z values as such:

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

Our x value ranges from 10 to 26 therefore let x=10 and we obtain:

z=\frac{10-14.3}{3.7} =-1.16\\

If we look at our z-table we find that the probability associated with a z value of -1.16 is 0.1230 meaning 12.30%.

Now let's calculate the z value when x = 26 and so:

z=\frac{26-14.3}{3.7}=3.16\\

Similarly, we use the z-table again and find that the probability associated with a z value of 3.16 is 0.9992 meaning 99.92%.

Now we want to find the probability in between 10 and 26 so we will now subtract the upper limit minus the lower limit in P(10 ≤ x ≤ 26) therefore:

0.9992 - 0.1230 = 0.8762

or 87.62%

sammy [17]

Answer:

$1,391.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Noon would be 12:00 PM which would be 4 hours ahead of 8:00 AM

We subtract $8,821 by $3,256 to get the amount earned between 8:00 AM and 12:00 PM

$8,821 - $3,256

= $5,565

The find the average taken in within those 4 hours we will have to divide the money earned by the hours

$5,565/4

= $1,391.25

One hour after yolanda started walking from x to y, a distance of 45 miles, bob started walking along the same road from y to x.
Rufina [12.5K]
<span>Answer: When bob starts walking The distance between them is 45-3 = 42 miles If they meet at time t then Yolanda would have walked X/3 minutes and Bob would have walked (42-X)/4 mins X/3 = (42-X)/4 so X = 18 Bob would have walked 42-18 = 24 miles.</span>
