Answer:

Option D) $275

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

Mean, μ = $235

Standard Deviation, σ = $20

We are given that the distribution of amount of money spent by students is a bell shaped distribution that is a normal distribution.

Formula:

z_{score} = \displaystyle\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

We have to find the value of x such that the probability is 0.975

P( X < x) = P( z < \displaystyle\frac{x - 235}{20})=0.975  

Calculation the value from standard normal z table, we have,  

P( z < 1.960) = 0.975

\displaystyle\frac{x - 235}{20} = 1.960\\x =274.2 \approx 275

Approximately 97.5% of the students spent below $275 on textbook.

Answer:

C. 18:30

Step-by-step explanation:

Divide the y values (games played) by the x values (games won) to find your ratio. The ratio across each of these pairs is 1.666667...

Using the ratio provided, 18:30, divide 30 by 18.

30/18 = 1.666667...

It's a match!

Therefore, the answer is C. 18:30
