Answer:

a) x = \mu +z*\sigma

And replacing we got:

x= 2.98 + 1.71*0.36 = 3.5956

b) x = \mu +z*\sigma

And replacing we got:

x= 21.6 + 1.18*7.1 = 29.978

c) x = \mu -z*\sigma

And replacing we got:

x= 150 - 1.35*40= 96

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean".  

Part a

Let X the random variable of interest for this case. We define the z score with the following formula:

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

And for this case we know that z = 1.71, \mu = 2.98,\sigma = 0.36

If we solve for x from the z score formula we got:

x = \mu +z*\sigma

And replacing we got:

x= 2.98 + 1.71*0.36 = 3.5956

Part b

Let X the random variable of interest for this case. We define the z score with the following formula:

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

And for this case we know that z = 1.18, \mu = 21.6,\sigma = 7.1

If we solve for x from the z score formula we got:

x = \mu +z*\sigma

And replacing we got:

x= 21.6 + 1.18*7.1 = 29.978

Part c

Let X the random variable of interest for this case. We define the z score with the following formula:

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

And for this case we know that z = -1.35, \mu = 150,\sigma = 40

If we solve for x from the z score formula we got:

x = \mu -z*\sigma

And replacing we got:

x= 150 - 1.35*40= 96

<span>MP3 player is $60
</span><span>The selling price is $105

</span><span>A classmate says that the markup is 175% because $105/$60=1.75 . Is your classmate correct?

No. IT's not correct

Original price $60
Selling price $105

$105 - $60 = $45

So

45/60 x 100 = 75%

Price is markup 75% from $60 to $105</span>

Find the total surface area of the prism.<br><br> 13 in.<br> 9 in.<br> 15 in.<br><br> Need asap
natta225 [31]

Answer:

The surface area of a rectangular prism with length of

15, a width of 9 and a height of 13 is:

894.0000 square units.

not sure

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the surface area, use this rectangular prism surface area

formula:

Surface Area =

[(Length x Width) + (Length x Height) + (Width x Height)] x 2

Example: The surface area of a rectangular prism with length of

3 inches, width of 4 inches, and height of 5 inches:

Surface Area = [(3 x 4) + (3 x 5) + (4 x 5)] x 2

Calculated out this gives a surface area of 94 Square Inches.
