Find out the what is the percentage of this discount .

To prove

Formula

Discount = Marked price - selling price

As given

a jar of natural peanut butter normally costs $4.00 .

it's on sale for $3.60 .

thus

Marked price = $4.00

selling price = $3.60

put in the above formula

The population of weights of a particular fruit is normally distributed, with a mean of 464 grams and a standard deviation of 6
igomit [66]

Answer:

If 27 fruits are picked at random, then 2% of the time, their mean weight will be greater than 466.37 grams

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean = \mu = 464

Standard deviation =\sigma = 6

We are supposed to find If 27 fruits are picked at random, then 2% of the time, their mean weight will be greater than how many grams i.e.P(X>x)=0.02

The mean weight is in the highest 2%, you want to go to a z-table and find the z-score that where the area to the left of the curve is closest to 0.98.

n = 27

Refer the z -table

P(Z>x)=2.06

\frac{x-\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}=2.06\\\frac{x-464}{\frac{6}{\sqrt{27}}}=2.06\\x-464=2.06 \times \frac{6}{\sqrt{27}}\\x=(2.06 \times \frac{6}{\sqrt{27}})+464\\x=466.37

So, If 27 fruits are picked at random, then 2% of the time, their mean weight will be greater than 466.37 grams

Write an equation in slope-intercept form for the line that satisfies each set of conditions.
finlep [7]

Answer: Y= 2/3x + 9

Explanation: The equation is in slope-intercept form, y=mx+b. Since it is parallel to the equation, it has the same slope (2/3x) and since b is the x intercept, b is 9.
