Answer:
And we can find this probability with this difference and using the normal standard table or excel:
And the result is illustrated in the figure attached.
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".
Solution to the problem
Let X the random variable that represent the variable of interest of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:
Where and
We are interested on this probability
And the best way to solve this problem is using the normal standard distribution and the z score given by:
If we apply this formula to our probability we got this:
And we can find this probability with this difference and using the normal standard table or excel:
And the result is illustrated in the figure attached.
Answer:
There is no solution to this.
Explanation :
We have a double system of equation to solve. Let x be the big number and let y be the smaller number, such that y < x.
x is equal to twice a smaller number plus 3, which translates into : x = 2y + 3
and x is equal to twice the sum of the smaller number and 1 : x = 2 * (y + 1)
We get this system to solve :
It's either x minus 2y equals 3, or x minus 2y = 2 but it can't be both. No solutions exist because the situation describes two lines that have the same slope and different y-intercepts
