Answer:

$97.20

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x = the dinner bill

Tip = 15% of the dinner bill

Amount of tip = $14.58

15% of the tip = $14.58

15% of x = 14.58

15/100 * x = 14.58

0.15 * x = 14.58

0.15x = 14.58

Divide both sides by 0.15

x = 14.58/0.15

x = $97.20

Shalnov [3]

Answer:

0% probability that more than 100 of the people contacted will purchase your product

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, i am going to use the binomial approximation to the normal.

Binomial probability distribution

Probability of exactly x sucesses on n repeated trials, with p probability.

Can be approximated to a normal distribution, using the expected value and the standard deviation.

The expected value of the binomial distribution is:

E(X) = np

The standard deviation of the binomial distribution is:

\sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)}

Normal probability distribution

Problems of normally distributed samples can be solved using the z-score formula.

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

When we are approximating a binomial distribution to a normal one, we have that \mu = E(X), \sigma = \sqrt{V(X)}.

In this problem, we have that:

p = 0.03, n = 2000

So

\mu = E(X) = np = 2000*0.03 = 60

\sigma = \sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)} = \sqrt{2000*0.03*0.97} = 7.63

What is the probability that more than 100 of the people contacted will purchase your product?

This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 100. So

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

Z = \frac{100 - 60}{7.63}

Z = 5.24

Z = 5.24 has a pvalue of 1

1 - 1 = 0

0% probability that more than 100 of the people contacted will purchase your product
