A ) Length = 5 - 2 x
Width = 3 - 2 x
The area of the bottom:
A = L x W = ( 5 - 2 x ) ( 3 - 2 x ) = 15 - 10 x - 6 x + 4 x² =
= 4 x² - 16 x + 15
b ) 4 x² - 16 x + 15 = 10
4 x² - 16 x + 5 = 0
x = (16 - √(256 - 80))/ 8 = ( 16 - 13.266 ) / 2
x = 0.34 in

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Probability Distribution

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the z-score of a measure X is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

The mean score on the scale is 50. The distribution has a standard deviation of 10.

This means that $\mu = 50, \sigma = 10$
