Youre finding 9.75% of 519 you know its going to be near 50 dollars
your answer is 50.695125
or 50.70$ tax
519.95+50.7 = 570.65$ total
Step-by-step explanation:
The solution to this problem is very much similar to your previous ones, already answered by Sqdancefan.
Given:
mean, mu = 3550 lbs (hope I read the first five correctly, and it's not a six)
standard deviation, sigma = 870 lbs
weights are normally distributed, and assume large samples.
Probability to be estimated between W1=2800 and W2=4500 lbs.
Solution:
We calculate Z-scores for each of the limits in order to estimate probabilities from tables.
For W1 (lower limit),
Z1=(W1-mu)/sigma = (2800 - 3550)/870 = -.862069
From tables, P(Z<Z1) = 0.194325
For W2 (upper limit):
Z2=(W2-mu)/sigma = (4500-3550)/879 = 1.091954
From tables, P(Z<Z2) = 0.862573
Therefore probability that weight is between W1 and W2 is
P( W1 < W < W2 )
= P(Z1 < Z < Z2)
= P(Z<Z2) - P(Z<Z1)
= 0.862573 - 0.194325
= 0.668248
= 0.67 (to the hundredth)
Answer:
4
Step-by-step explanation:
8% is also 8/100. This would be true for all percents 0 to 100%. If it were 42% it can be written as 42/100.
So, 8% is 8/100. If you want to find 8/100 of 50 multiply them.
8/100 * 50/1 = (8*50) /100
400/100 = 4
It seems most likely that ...
... Samantha will save $37.50 because she must first find the 25% sale price before taking the extra 50% reduction
_____
In the real world, it seems probable that Samantha will be offered the choice of using the coupon <em>or</em> the sale discount. If she chooses tht 50% coupon, her savings will be $30. If she chooses the marked sale discount, her savings will be $15.
The scenario above assumes she gets 50% off the sale price of $45, so saves $15+22.50 = $37.50 off the original price.
