Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We can plug in all of the x and y values to check if the point is a solution to the inequality.

Point A: x = 1, y = 7

7 > |1| + 5

7 > 1 + 5

7 > 6

This is a true statement, which means that this point is a solution to the inequality. We don't have to check any more points since we have found our answer.

A consumer survey indicates that the average household spendsμ= $185on groceries each week. The distribution of spending amounts

Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

$P(X>200)=P(\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}>\frac{200-\mu}{\sigma})=P(Z>\frac{200-185}{25})=P(Z>0.6)$

And we can find this probability using the complement rule and with the normal standard table or excel:

$P(Z>0.6)=1-P(z$

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean".

Solution to the problem

Let X the random variable that represent the average household spent of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

$X \sim N(185,25)$
