Answer:

0.7392 = 73.92% probability of obtaining a value less than 45 or greater than 49.

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Probability Distribution

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the z-score 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 p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Mean 47 and standard deviation 6

This means that \mu = 47, \sigma = 6

Less than 45:

p-value of Z when X = 45, so:

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

Z = \frac{45 - 47}{6}

Z = -0.3333

Z = -0.3333 has a p-value of 0.3696.

More than 49:

1 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 49. So

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

Z = \frac{49 - 47}{6}

Z = 0.3333

Z = 0.3333 has a p-value of 0.6304.

1 - 0.6304 = 0.3996

Less than 45 or greater than 49:

2*0.3696 = 0.7392

0.7392 = 73.92% probability of obtaining a value less than 45 or greater than 49.

Otrada [13]
After every month's withdrawals, 4/5 of the original amount at the start of the month will remain. The amount at the start of every month will change. Thus:

Ms.Rosenbaum buys 5 crates of apples at the market .Each crate cost $12.50 .She also buys one crate of pears for $18.75 .What is
Inga [223]
Ok so she wants but 5 crates of apples. And each crate cost 12.50 so you would multi 12.50 times 5, which is 62.05. She so wants to buy one crate of pears. One crate of pairs is 18.75. Since she is only buying one you don't need to multiply it but anything. But now you have to figure out the cost of the apples and pears together. So just add 62.05 and 18.75 together which is 80.80
