Answer:

34.134%

68.268%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Mean (m) = 500

Standard deviation (s) = 100

Percentage between 500 and 600

P(500 < x < 600)

P(x < 600) - P(x < 500)

Z = (x - m) / s

P(x < 600)

Z = (600 - 500) /100 = 1

P(x < 500)

Z = (500 - 500) / 500 = 0

P(Z< 1) - P(Z < 0)

0.84134 - 0.5

= 0.34134

= 0.34134 * 100%

= 34.134%

B.) Between 400 and 600

P(x < 400)

Z = (400 - 500) /100 = - 1

P(x < 600)

Z = (600 - 500) / 500 = 1

P(Z< 1 ) - P(Z < - 1)

0.84134 - 0.15866

= 0.68268

= 0.68268 * 100%

= 68.268%

Help me if you understand thanks sm
kumpel [21]
First, find the slope of the line using the formula for slope:

m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

m = (4 - (-2)) / (-3 - 2) = -6/5

Then, use the point-slope formula using a point that you were given and the slope that you calculated.

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - 4 = (-6/5)(x + 3)

Then, simply get y alone.

y = (-6/5)x + 2/5

Tavius wants to invest $2,500. Which option will earn him the best value?
Step2247 [10]

Tavius would earn his best value if he invests in a  three-year certificate of deposit with a nominal interest rate of 4 percent.

Tavius would invest in the option that yields the highest interest. This is the best value. In order to determine which option is the best, the interest rate of each option has to be determined.

<em><u>Interest rate of the first option</u></em>

Interest earned = amount invested x time x interest rate

$2500 x 0.03 x 2 = $150

<em><u /></em>

<em><u>Interest rate of the second option</u></em>

Interest earned = amount invested x time x interest rate

$2500 x 0.03 x 1 = $75

<em><u /></em>

<em><u>Interest rate of the third option</u></em>

Interest earned = amount invested x time x interest rate

$2500 x 0.04 x 3 = $300

<em><u /></em>

<em><u>Interest rate of the fourth option</u></em>

FV = P x (1 + r) n

$2500 x (1.03) = $75
