Two companies, A and B, drill wells in a rural area. Company A charges a flat fee of 3681 dollars to drill a well regardless of

its depth. Company B charges 1168 dollars plus 10 dollars per foot to drill a well. The depths of wells drilled in this area have a normal distribution with a mean of 260 feet and a standard deviation of 40 feet. Find the probability that Company B would charge more than Company A to drill a well.

Answer:

Mean costing =  $3,768

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Mean A(x) = 260

Rate = $10 per feet

Fixed charge = $1,168

Computation:

Assume;

depth = x ft

So,

Cost of company B = 10x + 1,168

So,

Mean costing = 10A(x) + 1,168

Mean costing =  10(260) + 1,168

Mean costing =  2,600 + 1,168

Mean costing =  $3,768

During a storm one and five hundredths inches of rain fell near Marie's house which shows the amount of rain in standard form?
Rudik [331]

Answer:

1.05 * 10⁰

Step-by-step explanation:

Standard form is a way of representing either very large or very small numbers easily.

If a number is to be written in standard form, you have to first write down the number between 1 and 10, then you write × 10(to the power of a number).

Given that the amount of rain that fell near Marie's house is one and five hundredths inches of rain.

Amount of rain = one and five hundredths inches of rain = 1 + 5/100 = 1 + 0.05 = 1.05

Amount of rain in standard form = 1.05 * 10⁰
