Answer:
0.0668 = 6.68% probability that the worker earns more than $8.00
Step-by-step explanation:
When the distribution is normal, we use the z-score formula.
In a set with mean and standard deviation
, the zscore of a measure X is given by:
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.
The average hourly wage of workers at a fast food restaurant is $7.25/hr with a standard deviation of $0.50.
This means that
If a worker at this fast food restaurant is selected at random, what is the probability that the worker earns more than $8.00?
This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 8. So
has a pvalue of 0.9332
1 - 0.9332 = 0.0668
0.0668 = 6.68% probability that the worker earns more than $8.00
Answer:
The price of the television before taxes is $420
Step-by-step explanation:
* Lets explain how to solve the problem
- The purchased price = cost price + taxes
- A new television set was recently purchased for the common room
in a residence hall for $436.80
- This price including tax
- The tax rate is 4%
- We need to find the price of the television before taxes
* <em>Lets solve the problem</em>
- Assume that the price of the television before tax is 100%
∵ The tax rate is 4%
∵ The price after tax = price before tax + tax
∵ The price before tax = 100%
∴ The price after tax = 100% + 4% = 104%
∵ 104% equivalent to $436.80
∴ 100 ⇒ ?
104 ⇒ 436.80
- <em>By using cross multiplication</em>
∴ ? =
∴ The price of the television before taxes is $420
