Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The Empirical Rule states that 68% of data is between 1 standard deviation in a dataset of normal distribution, 95% falls between 2 standard deviations, and 99.7% between 3.

The mean is 450, and one standard deviation is between 450 ± 50 = 400 and 500. Therefore, we can say that 68% of the data falls between 400 and 500 seconds.

The data includes 97 emergencies, so we just need to find 68% of that, which is 0.68*97 = 65.96 (rounding up to 66)

There is a 10% off sale on laptop computers. If someone saves $35 on a laptop, what was its original cost?

Answer:

The original cost is $350

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's assume

original cost of computer is x

There is a 10% off sale on laptop computers

So, amount saved is

$=\frac{10}{100}x=0.10x$

now, we are given

someone saves $35 on a laptop

so, we can set them equal

and then we can solve for x

$0.10x=35$

we can divide both sides by 0.10

and we get

$x=350$

So,

The original cost is $350
