Answer: Company A would be a better deal for number of minutes over 200

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of minutes that you would use with either company A or company B.

Company A has a monthly charge of $10 plus 5¢ a minute for each minute of long distance calls. It means that the cost of x minutes of long distance call is

10 + 0.05x

Company B has a monthly charge of $8 plus 6¢ a minute for long distance calls. It means that the cost of x minutes of long distance call is 10 + 0.05x

8 + 0.06x

For Company A to be a better deal, it means that

10 + 0.05x < 8 + 0.06x

10 - 8 < 0.06x - 0.05x

2 < 0.01x

0.01x > 2

x > 2/0.01

x > 200

Assume that females have pulse rates that are normally distributed with a mean of u = 75.0 beats per minute and a standard devia
Elan Coil [88]

Answer:

36.88% probability that her pulse rate is between 69 beats per minute and 81 beats per minute.

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this problem, we have that:

\mu = 75, \sigma = 12.5

Find the probability that her pulse rate is between 69 beats per minute and 81 beats per minute.

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 81 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 69.

X = 81

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{81 - 75}{12.5}

Z = 0.48

Z = 0.48 has a pvalue of 0.6844

X = 69

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{69 - 75}{12.5}

Z = -0.48

Z = -0.48 has a pvalue of 0.3156

0.6844 - 0.3156 = 0.3688

36.88% probability that her pulse rate is between 69 beats per minute and 81 beats per minute.
