Answer:

z-value of rachel = 1.875

z-value of rob = -2

z-value of Rachel is more than that of rob. Thus rob is earning below average and rachel is earning above average.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's denote the salary of Rob and Rachel per year by X. So, X = $50,000

We are told that;

For Rachel's industry;

Mean salary;μ1 = $35,000

Standard deviation;σ1 = $8,000

For Rob's industry;

Mean salary;μ2 = $60,000

Standard deviation;σ2 = $5,000

Formula for z - value is;

z = (X - μ)/σ

Thus;

z-value for rob is;

z2 = (X - μ2)/σ2

z2 = (50000 - 60000)/5000

z2 = -2

z-value for rachel is;

z1 = (X - μ1)/σ1

z1 = (50000 - 35000)/8000

z1 = 1.875

z-value of Rachel is more than that of rob. Thus rob is earning below average and rachel is earning above average.

What is the best estimate of 28 × 4,417?
Maru [420]

Answer:

132600

Step-by-step explanation:

I was always taught like this, and this should be the best estimate:

28 x 4417 --> 30 * 4420 --> 132600

Some other possible estimates with simpler values:

30 * 4400 --> 132000

30 * 4500 --> 135000

30 * 4000 --> 120000
