The distribution of the number of occurrences of the letter t on the pages of a book is found to be a normal distribution with a mean of 44 and a standard deviation of 18. If there are 500 pages in the book, which sentence most closely summarizes the data?
A. The letter t occurs less than 26 times on approximately 170 of these pages.
B. The letter t occurs less than 26 times on approximately 15 of these pages.
C. The letter t occurs more than 26 times on approximately 420 of these pages.
D. The letter t occurs more than 26 times on approximately 80 of these pages.
.Answer:
<span>mean = 44 </span>
<span>sd = 18 </span>
<span>that means that "26" is 1 s.d. down, or at the 16th %ile </span>
<span>so, there is a .16 chance that "t" will occur less than 26 times on any single page. </span>
<span>consequently, there is a .84 chance that it will occur more than 26 times on any single page. </span>
<span>Using that information, and knowing that 16% of 500 is 80, and 84% of 500 is 420, can you see where "C" is correct? </span>
Answer:
x=12
Step-by-step explanation:
For the given situation , a quantity x is added to 
gives 15.
We can set up equation as
Multiply each term by 4 on both sides to get rid the denominator.
It gives,
4 x+x=60
Now, combine like terms
5 x=60
Divide both sides by 5
x=12.
You said you’d give 30 points but i only see 15 there ☹️
Answer: 31
Step-by-step explanation:
(x/5) - 1 = 5.2
x/5 = 6.2
x = 6.2 x 5
x = 31
