Answer:

The commission percentage is 2%

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the percentage of a commission, start by dividing the commission amount by the total amount sold.

3,000/150,000 = .02 = 2%

Carly wants to add texting to her cell phone plan. She has two choices in texting packages. The TURKEY plan charges $.15 per tex

alina1380 [7]

TURKEY 0.15xy+20y

GOBBLE 0.20xy+0y

x is the number of texts and y is the number of months

400 texts will need to be sent each month because solving the equation 0.15xy+20y=0.20xy+0y

0.15xy+20y=0.20xy

-0.05xy+20y=0

-0.05xy=-20y

turn -0.05xy into (-y/20)x

(-y/20)x=-20y

((-y/20)x=-20y)/-y/20

x=-20y/-y/20

x=400

TURKEY plan because 0.15(500)y+20y is 95y and 0.20(500)y+0y is 100y, meaning TURKEY would be cheaper.

The resting heart rate for an adult horse should average about µ = 47 beats per minute with a (95% of data) range from 19 to 75

KatRina [158]

Answer:

a. 0.0582 = 5.82% probability that the heart rate is less than 25 beats per minute.

b. 0.1762 = 17.62% probability that the heart rate is greater than 60 beats per minute.

c. 0.7656 = 76.56% probability that the heart rate is between 25 and 60 beats per minute

Step-by-step explanation:

Empirical Rule:

The Empirical Rule states that, for a normally distributed random variable:

Approximately 68% of the measures are within 1 standard deviation of the mean.

Approximately 95% of the measures are within 2 standard deviations of the mean.

Approximately 99.7% of the measures are within 3 standard deviations of the mean.

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.

Mean:

$\mu = 47$

(95% of data) range from 19 to 75 beats per minute.

This means that between 19 and 75, by the Empirical Rule, there are 4 standard deviations. So

$4\sigma = 75 - 19$

$4\sigma = 56$

$\sigma = \frac{56}{4} = 14$

a. What is the probability that the heart rate is less than 25 beats per minute?

This is the p-value of Z when X = 25. So

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

$Z = \frac{25 - 47}{14}$

$Z = -1.57$

$Z = -1.57$ has a p-value of 0.0582.

0.0582 = 5.82% probability that the heart rate is less than 25 beats per minute.

b. What is the probability that the heart rate is greater than 60 beats per minute?

This is 1 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 60. So

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

$Z = \frac{60 - 47}{14}$

$Z = 0.93$

$Z = 0.93$ has a p-value of 0.8238.

1 - 0.8238 = 0.1762

0.1762 = 17.62% probability that the heart rate is greater than 60 beats per minute.

c. What is the probability that the heart rate is between 25 and 60 beats per minute?

This is the p-value of Z when X = 60 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 25. From the previous two items, we have these two p-values. So

0.8238 - 0.0582 = 0.7656

0.7656 = 76.56% probability that the heart rate is between 25 and 60 beats per minute

PLEASE HELP ME :(<br> God bless.

Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

x - 99 ≤ -104 → 2nd line

x - 51 ≤ -43 → 1st line

150 + x ≤ 144 → 4th line

75 < 69 - x → 3rd line

Step-by-step explanation:

Ugh! Wow, this is going to be tedious, thanks alot, bro (jk, I got your back).

x - 99 ≤ -104

+ 99 + 99

x ≤ -5

There should be a line going from -5 to negative infinity (AKA the left) with a FILLED circle. So, the second one is correct.

x - 51 ≤ -43

+ 51 + 51

x ≤ 8

There should be an arrow with a FILLED circle going to negative infinity (AKA the left). So, the first one is correct.

I'm going to take a shortcut and notice that one of the lines has a filled circle while the other one has an empty circle. So the empty circle must relate to the question without a ≤ or ≥, but with a < or >. We see that 75 < 69 doesn't have ≤ or ≥ but a '<.' So this one must have the empty circle, which is on line 3. The last equation has to be on line 4.
