We do like the following:
Set the first number is a and the second is b.
We have two equations: a+2xb=24, 2xa+b=21
And we have 2xa+4xb=48 or 2xa=48-4xb
So: 48-4xb+b=21 or -3xb=21-48=-27 and we got b=-27:(-3)=9 and a= 6
a=6 and b=9

Find the number z such that the proportion of observations that are less than z in a standard Normal distribution is 0.5414. (b)
Akimi4 [234]

Answer:

Part (a) The value of Z is 0.10396. Part (b) The value of Z is 0.410008.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

Part (a)

In order to find the number z such that the proportion of observations that are less than z in a standard Normal distribution is 0.5414, simply find 0.5414 in the table and search for the appropriate Z-value.

Now, observing the table it can be concluded that the value of Z is 0.10396.

Part (b)

Consider the number 65.91%

The above number can be written as 0.6591.

Now, find 0.6591 in the table and search for the appropriate Z-value.

By, observing the table it can be concluded that the value of Z is 0.410008.

11+4c=83
4c=72
c=18

c=18 and YZ=72
