Answer:

a. 68% of the workers will earn between $47300 and $69700.

b. 2.5% of workers will earn above $89000

c. Approximately 0

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard normal distribution curve in the attached graph is used to solve this question.

a. The value $47300 is a standard deviation below the mean i.e. 58500-11200=47300. While $69700 is a standard deviation above the mean. I.e. 58500+12000=69700.

Between the first deviation below and above the mean, you have 34%+34%=68% of the salary earners within this range. So we have 68%of staffs earning within this range

b. The second standard deviation above the mean is $80900. i.e. 58500+11200+11200=$80900

We have 50%+13.5%+2.5%= 97.5% earning below $80900. Therefore, 100-97.5= 2.5% of the workers earn above this amount.

c. From the Standard Deviation Rule, the probability is only about (1 -0 .997) / 2 = 0.0015 that a normal value would be more than 3 standard deviations away from its mean in one direction or the other. The probability is only 0.0002 that a normal variable would be more than 3.5 standard deviations above its mean. Any more standard deviations than that, and we generally say the probability is approximately zero.

Write the equation for g(x).
MrRissso [65]

Answer:

g(x) = 5x^{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

This problem may seem tricky at first, but after you understand the basic concepts about vertical stretches and vertical shrinks, this problem will become much simpler. Additionally, if you use the online tool: DESMOS, you will be able visualize things better.

First, you may notice the graph is more narrow than the original "f(x)" graph. This means that the g(x) graph is a vertical shrink. A vertical shrink can be achieved by adding a whole-number as a coefficient to the "x^{2} \\" formula. Adding a coefficient of "5" would result in coordinates like (1,5), just like adding a coefficient of "2" for example would result in coordinates like (1,2).
