The two z-scores are -1.53 and 1.53

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the two z-scores that separate the middle 87.4% of the distribution from the area in the tails of the standard normal distribution

  1. Assume that z-score is between -c and c ⇒ P(-c < z < c) = the given value
  2. Find the value of P(z < -c or z > c) = 1 - the given value
  3. P(z < -c) + P(z > c) = the answer of the previous step
  4. 2*P(z < -c) = the answer of the previous step
  5. Find the value of P(z < -c)
  6. In the z-table having area to the left of z, look for the value closest to the value of P(z < -c) inside the table to find the closest value of z

∵ P(-c < z < c) = 87.4%

∵ 87.4% = 87.4 ÷ 100 = 0.874

∴ P(-c < z < c) = 0.874

∵ P(z > c) = 1 - 0.874 = 0.126

∴ P(z < -c) + P(z > c) = 0.126

∵ P(z > c) = P(z < -c)

∴ P(z < -c) + P(z < -c) = 0.126

∴ 2*P(z < -c) = 0.126

- Divide both sides by 2

∴ P(z < -c) = 0.063

Let us use the z-table to find the corresponding values of

z to 0.063

∵ The corresponding value of z to 0.063 = -1.53

∴ The two z-scores = -1.53 and 1.53

The attached figure for more understand

The two z-scores are -1.53 and 1.53

Amanda is having new tile installed in her kitchen. TileAll charges a flat fee of $378.00 plus $15.00 per tile. Kitchen Plus cha
myrzilka [38]

Answer:

C = 495 + 13.05x

60 tiles.

Step-by-step explanation:

$15.00 per tile plus a flat fee of $378.00 that charges Tile All.

Therefore, for x number of tiles, the total cost of installation will be  

C = 378 + 15x ........... (1)

Again, $14.50 per tiles plus a flat fee of $550.00 that charges Kitchen Plus. Amanda has at Kitchen Plus, a 10% discount coupon.

Therefore, for x tiles installation the charges will be  

C = (550 + 14.5x)(1 - \frac{10}{100}) = 495 + 13.05x .......... (2) (Answer)

Now, if for x number of tiles both the company charges the same, then  

378 + 15x = 495 + 13.05x (From equations (1) and (2)}

⇒ 1.95x = 117

⇒ x = 60 tiles. (Answer)

A cab company charges a $5 boarding rate in addition to its meter which is $3
ser-zykov [4K]

The equation that represents the cab's total charge is  y = 3x + 5 , Option A is the correct answer.

<h3>What is an Equation ?</h3>

A statement that relate two expressions with an equal sign is called an Equation.

It is given that

A cab company charges a $5 boarding

Charges for every mile is $3 per mile

Let x be the mile travelled

The cab's total charge is represented by y

then y = 3x + 5

Therefore the equation that represents the cab's total charge is  y = 3x + 5 , Option A is the correct answer.
