Answer:

350 - 170 - 120 = r

Step-by-step explanation:

Identify the variable:

r = number of red pens

The total amount of pens ordered is 350 when adding all three colors of pens. This means we must add all of the colored pens to find the total number of pens, 350.

Write this as an equation:

170 + 120 + r = 350

Rewrite the equation to find r:

350 - 170 - 120 = r

Use technology or a z-score table to answer the question.

Alik [6]

Answer:

The second choice: Approximately $65.2\%$ of the pretzel bags here will contain between 225 and 245 pretzels.

Step-by-step explanation:

This explanation uses a z-score table where each $z$ entry has two decimal places.

Let $\mu$ represent the mean of a normal distribution of variable $X$ . Let $\sigma$ be the standard deviation of the distribution. The z-score for the observation $x$ would be:

$\displaystyle z = \frac{x - \mu}{\sigma}$ .

In this question,

$\mu = 240$ .
$\sigma = 9.3$ .

Calculate the z-score for $x_1 = 225$ and $x_2 = 245$ . Keep in mind that each entry in the z-score table here has two decimal places. Hence, round the results below so that each contains at least two decimal places.

$\begin{aligned} z_1 &= \frac{x_1 - \mu}{\sigma} \\ &= \frac{225 - 240}{9.3} \approx -1.61\end{aligned}$ .

$\begin{aligned} z_2 &= \frac{x_2 - \mu}{\sigma} \\ &= \frac{245 - 240}{9.3} \approx 0.54\end{aligned}$ .

The question is asking for the probability $P(225 \le X \le 245)$ (where $X$ is between two values.) In this case, that's the same as $P(-1.61 \le Z \le 0.54)$ .

Keep in mind that the probabilities on many z-table correspond to probability of $P(Z \le z)$ (where $Z$ is no greater than one value.) Therefore, apply the identity $P(z_1 \le Z \le z_2) = P(Z \le z_2) - P(Z \le z_1)$ to rewrite $P(-1.61 \le Z \le 0.54)$ as the difference between two probabilities:

$P(-1.61 \le Z \le 0.54) = P(Z \le 0.54) - P(Z \le -1.61)$ .

Look up the z-table for $P(Z \le 0.54)$ and $P(Z \le -1.61)$ :

$P(Z \le 0.54)\approx 0.70540$ .
$P(Z \le -1.61) \approx 0.05370$ .

$\begin{aligned}& P(225 \le X \le 245) \\ &= P\left(\frac{225 - 240}{9.3} \le Z \le \frac{245 - 240}{9.3}\right)\\&\approx P(-1.61 \le Z \le 0.54) \\ &= P(Z \le 0.54) - P(Z \le -1.61)\\ &\approx 0.70540 - 0.05370 \\& \approx 0.65.2 \\ &= 65.2\% \end{aligned}$ .
