Since the surface area of a cube is 6 times the square of the side length of the cube, then that means the surface area of a cube that has a side length of 5 has a surface area of 6 x 5 x 5. 5 times 5 = 25, and 25 x 6 = 150

A small business owner estimates his mean daily profit as $970 with a standard deviation of $129. His shop is open 102 days a ye

Katena32 [7]

Answer:

The probability that the shopkeeper's annual profit will not exceed $100,000 is 0.2090.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the Central Limit Theorem if we have a population with mean μ and standard deviation σ and we select appropriately huge random samples (n ≥ 30) from the population with replacement, then the distribution of the sum of values of X, i.e ∑X, will be approximately normally distributed.

Then, the mean of the distribution of the sum of values of X is given by,

$\mu_{x}=n\mu$

And the standard deviation of the distribution of the sum of values of X is given by,

$\sigma_{x}=\sqrt{n}\sigma$

The information provided is:

μ = $970

σ = $129

n = 102

Since the sample size is quite large, i.e. n = 102 > 30, the Central Limit Theorem can be used to approximate the distribution of the shopkeeper's annual profit.

Then,

$\sum X\sim N(\mu_{x}=98940,\ \sigma_{x}=1302.84)$

Compute the probability that the shopkeeper's annual profit will not exceed $100,000 as follows:

$P (\sum X \leq 100,000) =P(\frac{\sum X-\mu_{x}}{\sigma_{x}}$

$=P(Z$

*Use a z-table for the probability.

Thus, the probability that the shopkeeper's annual profit will not exceed $100,000 is 0.2090.
