Answer:
171 newspapers.
Step-by-step explanation:
Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.
In a set with mean
and standard deviation
, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

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 pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.
In this problem, we have that:

How many newspapers should the newsstand operator order to ensure that he runs short on no more than 20% of days
The number of newspapers must be on the 100-20 = 80th percentile. So this value if X when Z has a pvalue of 0.8. So X when Z = 0.84.




So 171 newspapers.
Answer:
a₁ = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
The sum to n terms of a geometric sequence is
= 
where a₁ is the first term and r the common ratio
Here
= 1530 and r = 2, thus
= 1530 , that is
a₁ (256 - 1) = 1530
255a₁ = 1530 ( divide both sides by 255 )
a₁ = 6
Add the mileage together to find total miles.
Add the hours together.
Divide total miles by total hours.
305 + 190 = 495 miles
5 + 4 = 9 hours.
495 / 9 = 55 miles per hour.
The average speed was 55 miles per hour.
Hello!
It is False because t is multiplied by a negative number, so to solve for it you will need to divide both sides by -3 which mean you have to flip the sign.
Hope this helps!
