Answer: 0.0793

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the IQ of the educated adults be X then;

Assume X follows a normal distribution with mean 118 and standard deviation of 20.

This is a sampling question with sample size, n =200

To find the probability that the sample mean IQ is greater than 120:

P(X > 120) = 1 - P(X < 120)

Standardize the mean IQ using the sampling formula : Z = (X - μ) / σ/sqrt n

Where;  X = sample mean IQ; μ =population mean IQ; σ = population standard deviation and n = sample size

Therefore, P(X>120) = 1 - P(Z < (120 - 118)/20/sqrt 200)

                                 = 1 - P(Z< 1.41)

The P(Z<1.41) can then be obtained from the Z tables and the value is 0.9207

Thus; P(X< 120) = 1 - 0.9207

                          = 0.0793

Floor tile costs $11 $11 per square yard. How much will it cost to tile a bathroom that is 90 90 square feet?
ira [324]

Answer: $1980

Step-by-step explanation:

Well, based off of the question being asked, I assume that you will need to pay $11 for 90 square footage of tiling, and then the same for the other square footage of tiling. Therefore your answer will be $1980. If you are looking for the equation, it is (<em>11x90)=990   (990)2 = 1980</em>

you do not need to multiply 11 by 90 again because you already know the answer.
