Answer:

tip would be $3.50

Step-by-step explanation:

10% + 5% = 15%

10% of 23.25 is 2.33

5% of 2.33 is 1.17

add 2.33 and 1.17 to get 3.50

Add an intersection the red light times normally distributed by the mean of three minutes and a standard deviation of .25 minute
Soloha48 [4]

95% of red lights last between 2.5 and 3.5 minutes.

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

In this case,

  • The mean M is 3 and
  • The standard deviation SD is given as 0.25

Assume the bell shaped graph of normal distribution,

The center of the graph is mean which is 3 minutes.

We move one space to the right side of mean ⇒ M + SD

⇒ 3+0.25 = 3.25 minutes.

Again we move one more space to the right of mean ⇒ M + 2SD

⇒ 3 + (0.25×2) = 3.5 minutes.

Similarly,

Move one space to the left side of mean ⇒ M - SD

⇒ 3-0.25 = 2.75 minutes.

Again we move one more space to the left of mean ⇒ M - 2SD

⇒ 3 - (0.25×2) =2.5 minutes.

The questions asks to approximately what percent of red lights last between 2.5 and 3.5 minutes.

Notice 2.5 and 3.5 fall within 2 standard deviations, and that 95% of the data is within 2 standard deviations. (Refer to bell-shaped graph)

Therefore, the percent of  red lights that last between 2.5 and 3.5 minutes is 95%

Problem is in the attached picture. Thanks in advance!
bogdanovich [222]

Answer:

Width= 120 ft

Length= 285 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

W= width and (3w-75)= length since it's 75 less than 3 times the width

w+w+(3w-75)+(3w-75)=810

8w-150=810

8w=960

w=120

So the width is 120 ft

Then substitute the 120 in for w in the length

L= 3(120)-75

L=360-75

L=285

So the length is 285 ft

You can check because 120+120+285+285=810, and because 120×3-75=285!
