Since the jar is 12 ounces, we want to find the price when it is one ounce. We do this by dividing the price, $3.60, by 12:

3.60/12 = 0.3

So, the answer is $0.30/oz, or (B).

The model shows that we are to arrange the factors based on the terms in the square box. The factored form is(6x+5)(x-4)

<h3>Factorizing quadratic equations</h3>

Factorization is a way of simplify. Given the equation 6x² - 19x - 20

Factorize

6x² - 19x - 20

6x² - 24x + 5x- 20

6x(x-4)+5(x-4)

(6x+5)(x-4)

We are to arrange each term of the factors in the square box

identify the equation that does not belong with the other three. explain your reasoning. 6+x=9 | 15= x+12 | x+9 =11 | 7+x=10
Katena32 [7]
Answer is x+9=11

6+x=9
x=3

15=x+12
x=3

7+x=10
x=3

x+9=11
x=2

So x+9=11 has a different x value than the rest of the equations. So it doesn't belong with the other three.

A recent study done by the National Retail Federation found that 2019 back-to-school spending for all US households who have sch
MissTica

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

The working variable is:

X: Back-to-school expense of a US household with school-aged children.

X~N(μ;σ²)

μ= $697

σ= $120

a. What is the probability that 2019 back-to-school spending for a US household with school-aged children is greater than $893?

Symbolically: P(X>$893)

First, you standardize the probability using Z= (X-μ)/σ ~N(0;1)

P(X>$893)= P(Z>(893-697)/120)= P(Z>1.63)

To resolve this question you have to use the table of cumulative probabilities for the standard normal distribution. These tables accumulate probabilities from the left, symbolically P(Z≤Z₀), so to reach probabilities greater than a Z₀ value you have to subtract the cumulative probability until that value from the maximum probability value 1:

P(Z>1.63)= 1 - P(Z≤1.63)= 1 - 0.94845= 0.05155

b. Provide the Z-score corresponding to the 2019 back-to-school spending of $1,200, and the probability of 2019 back-to-school spending for a household with school-aged children is less than $1,200.

P(X<$1200) = P(Z<(1200-697)/120)= P(Z<4.19)= 1

According to the empirical rule of the normal distribution, 99% of the data is between μ ± 3σ. This, logically, applies to the standard normal distribution. Considering that the distribution's mean is zero and the standard deviation is one, then 99% of the probabilities under the standard normal distribution are within the Z values: -3 and 3, values below -3 will have a probability equal to zero and values above 3 will have probability equal to one.

c. Find Q3 (Third Quartile).

Q3 in the value that marks three-quarters of the distribution, in other words, it has 75% of the distribution below it and 25% above, symbolically:

P(Z≤c)=0.75

In this case, you have to look in the center of the right Z-table (positive) for the probability of 0.75 and then the margins to find the Z-score that belongs to that cumulative probability:

c= 0.674

Now you reverse the standardization to see what value of X belongs to the Q3:

c= (X-μ)/σ

X= (c*σ)+μ

X= (0.674*120)+697= $777.88

d. Find Q1 (First Quartile)

To resolve this you have to follow the same steps as in c., just that this time you'll look for the value that marks the first quarter of the distribution, symbolically:

P(Z≤d)= 0.25

In this case, since the probability is below 0.5 you have to look for the Z value in the left table (negative).

d= -0.674

d= (X-μ)/σ

X= (d*σ)+μ

X= (-0.674*120)+697= $616.12

e. What is the value of the IQR for the distribution of 2019 back-to-school spending for a US household with school-aged children?

IQR= Q3-Q1= $777.88 - $616.12= $161.76

f. Interpret the value of the IQR from question 2e within the context of the problem.

$161.76 represents the distance between 75% of the Back-to-school expense of a US household 25% of the Back-to-school expense of US households.

g. What is the proportion of 2019 back-to-school spending within 1.50 standard deviations of the mean?

"Within 1.50 standard deviations of the mean" can be symbolized as "μ ± 1.5σ" or "μ - 1.5σ≤ Z ≤μ + 1.5σ"

P(μ - 1.5σ≤ Z ≤μ + 1.5σ)

Since the mean is zero and the standard deviation is one:

P(-1.5 ≤ Z ≤ 1.5)= P(Z≤1.5) - P(Z≤-1.5)= 0.933 - 0.067= 0.866

h. What is the 2019 back-to-school spending amount such that only 3% of households with school-age children spend more than this amount?

The "top" 3% means that you are looking for a value of the variable that has above it 0.03 of probability and below it 0.97%, first you look for this value under the standard normal distribution and then you reverse the standardization to reach the corresponding value of the variable:

P(Z>h)= 0.03 ⇒ P(Z≤h)=0.97

h= 1.881

h= (X-μ)/σ

X= (h*σ)+μ

X= ( 1.881*120)+697= $922.72

i. Which US household is more unusual, a US household with back-to-school spending of $600 or a US household with back-to-school spending of $900?

Under this kind of distribution, the "most usual" values are around the center (near the mean) and the "unusual" values will find themselves in the tails of the Gaussian bell.

To check which one is more unusual you have to see their distance with respect to the mean.

(X-μ)/σ

(600-697)/120= -0.8083

(900-697)/120= 1.69

An expense of $900 is more unusual than an expense of $600 (600 is almost the expected expenses)

j. Let's say the Smith family spent $815 on buying school supplies this fall. Provide an interpretation of the Smith family's 2019 back-to-school spending, i.e. what can you say about the percentage of all other US households with school-age children that have higher back-to-school spending than the Smith family?

P(X>$815) = P(Z>(815-697)/120)= P(Z>0.98)

1-P(Z≤0.983)= 0.837

83.7% of the families will have back-to-school expenses of $815 or more.

I hope it helps!
