If you can't factor the polynomial then you won't be able to even start the problem or even end it
company A :
30,000 + 0.03(37499) = 31124.97...sales less then 37500
30,000 + 0.03(37501) = 31125.03....sales exceed 37500
30,000 + 0.03(249000) = 37470 ...sales less then 250000
30,000 + 0.03(251000) = 37530....sales exceed 250000
company B :
25,000 + 0.05(37499) = 26874.95...sales less then 37500
25,000 + 0.05(37501) = 26875.05...sales exceed 37500
25000 + 0.05(249000) = 37450...sales less then 250000
25,000 + 0.05(251000) = 37550...sales exceed 250000
so i believe your answer is option b,
company A pays better when sales are less then 250,000, but company B pays better when sales exceed 250,000 <==
If p and q are both true, then

is an implication of the form

which is true, because every implication starting with false is true, i.e.

So, we're looking for an expression evaluating to true. Let's see what we have:
A) is an AND proposition. Logical AND is true only if both parts are true. So, you have

So it's not the right option.
B) is an OR proposition. Logical OR is true whenever one of the two parts is true. So, you have

So it's not the right option.
C) is again an AND proposition. You have

So this is not the right option.
D) Finally, the last one is again an implication, and again it starts with false:

So this is true, and thus is the correct option.
Answer:
a) 0.4164
Step-by-step explanation:
Mean lifespan (μ) = 18.8 days
Standard deviation (σ) = 2 days
For any given lifespan 'X', the z-score is:

For X=12.04 days:

A z-score of -3.38 falls in the 0.036-th percentile of a normal distribution.
For X=18.38 days:

A z-score of -3.38 falls in the 41.68th percentile of a normal distribution.
The probability that a butterfly lives between 12.04 and 18.38 days is
