Answer:

A. 0.3204    B. $14.669

Explanation:

Mean = 8.9      SD = 4.5

Required probability = P (X >/= 550/50)

P(X>/=11) = 1 - P[(X - mean/SD) < (11 - mean)/SD]

              = 1 - P(Z < (11-8.9)/4.5)

P(X>/=11) = 1 - P(Z < 0.4666667)

Using Excel NORMDIST(0.4666667,0,1,1)

P(X>/=11) = 1 - 0.6796 = 0.3204

The probability that she will earn at least $550 = 0.3204

b. P ( X  >  x )  =  0.10

1  −  P ( X  −  mean)/SD  ≤  (x  −  mean) /SD = 0.10

P ( Z  ≤  z )  =  0.90

Where,

z  =  (x  −  mean )/SD

Excel function for the value of z:

=NORMSINV(0.9)

=1.282

Hence (x - mean)/SD = 1.282

= (x - 8.9)/4.5 = 1.282

x = (1.282*4.5) + 8.9

x = 14.669

He earns $14.669 on the best 10% of such weekends.

The smallest deed is better than the greatest intention meaning
Evgen [1.6K]
<span>"The smallest deed is better than the greatest intention"

Here's my look on this saying:

Many of people, including myself have talked about our great intentions to impact somebody or some place. We might intend to do something, but forget about the importance of following through with those intentions. It is far better to make time to complete small good deeds than to spend your time talking about what you will do “one day.” This can be brought back to the quote, "No deed is too small the be appreciated". No matter how much good we intend to do, it will never compare, in all actuality, to how much good we actually do.

Thank you for your question! I hope this helped! Have an amazing day! :D
