Answer:

Option D.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given information: The distribution of weights of shipped boxes is approximately normal.

Population mean = 36

Standard deviation = 4

We need to find the 75th percentile of the distribution

75% = 0.75

From z-table it is clear that the value of z at 0.75 is 0.674.

75th percentile = Mean + z value at 75%(Standard deviation)

75th percentile = 36 + 0.674(4)

In can be rewritten as

75th percentile = 0.67(4) + 36

Therefore, the correct option is D.

Answer:

0.67(4)+ 36

Option D

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a producer ships boxes of produce to individual customers.(say x)

X is a normal random variable with mean = 36 and std dev  =4 lbs

By definition of std normal variate we know that

\frac{x-36}{4} is N(0,1)

75th percentile of std normal distribution is

0.675

Hence corresponding x would be

36+0.675(4)

Option D matches with this value

Hence answer is option D

0.67(4)+ 36

Add 77 -10 with its additive inverse.​
Ganezh [65]

Answer: 77 - 10 = 67, and the additive inverse of 77 - 10 is 77 + 10. 77 + 10 = 87.

Hope this helps! This question was kind of confusing for me, because I didn’t understand why you said to add 77 - 10… is this is the incorrect answer sorry your question was worded weird
