A study uses a sample of 200 college students to learn about the number of hours they studied for their final exams. The mean nu

mber of hours was 136 and the standard deviation was 14 hours. If this data falls under a normal distribution or bell curve, which of the following statements is NOT true?
The number of students that studied 122 or fewer hours was about 32.

The number of students that studied 150 or fewer hours was about 168.

The majority of students studied between 122 and 150 hours.

No one studied less than 108 hours.

\displaystyle\mathbb P(X\le122)=\mathbb P\left(\frac{X-136}{14}\le\frac{122-136}{14}\right)=\mathbb P(Z\le-1)\approx0.1587
which means 0.1587\times200\approx32 studied 122 or fewer hours.

\displaystyle\mathbb P(X\le150)=\mathbb P\left(\frac{X-136}{14}\le\frac{150-136}{14}\right)=\mathbb P(Z\le1)\approx0.8413
which means 0.8413\times200\approx168 studied 150 or fewer hours.

So, neither of the first two are false.

Depending on your definition of "majority", you could also eliminate the third option. From the above calculations, you know that students that studied between 122 and 150 hours fall within 1 standard deviation of the mean, which corresponds to approximately 65% of the student population. "Majority" is often taken to mean "more than 50%", so this is also true.

This leaves us with the last option. For fun, let's compute that probability.
\displaystyle\mathbb P(X
which means 0.0228\times200\approx5 students studied less than 108 hours.

Answer:

Mrs. Stern washed more

\frac{7}{20} laundry still needs to be washed.

Step-by-step explanation:

Total amount of laundry: \frac{20}{20}

\frac{20}{20} -\frac{2}{5}-\frac{1}{4} =

\frac{20}{20} - \frac{8}{20} -\frac{5}{20} =

\frac{7}{20} of the laundry still needs to be done.

Mrs. Stern washed \frac{8}{20} of the laundry.

Her son washed \frac{5}{20} of the laundry.

Mrs. Stern washed more laundry than her son.

A car is advertised as $288/month for 72 months. What is the cost of the car?
viktelen [127]

Answer:

$20,736

Step-by-step explanation:

When these kind of advertisements are displayed,, it means the EMI cost per month shall be $288.

Since it provides the time period, that is 72 months,

Total cost of car in this case shall be $288 \times 72 months = $20,736

Also, these include an interest factor, but overall it is = $20,736 only,

If one down payment for full price of the car is made the cost shall reduce by the interest amount, but since no interest rate is provided it shall be ignored.
