Answer:
So the value of height that separates the bottom 60% of data from the top 40% is 212.65. And rounded would be 212.7.
Step-by-step explanation:
1) 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".
2) Solution to the problem
Let X the random variable that represent the loan officer rates applicants for a credit of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:
Where and
And the best way to solve this problem is using the normal standard distribution and the z score given by:
For this part we want to find a value a, such that we satisfy this condition:
(a)
(b)
Both conditions are equivalent on this case.
As we can see on the figure attached the z value that satisfy the condition with 0.60 of the area on the left and 0.40 of the area on the right it's z=0.253. On this case P(Z<0.253)=0.60 and P(z>0.253)=0.4
If we use condition (b) from previous we have this:
But we know which value of z satisfy the previous equation so then we can do this:
And if we solve for a we got
So the value of height that separates the bottom 60% of data from the top 40% is 212.65. And rounded would be 212.7.
Using compound interest and a graphing calculator, it is found that it will take about 15 years for the loan to be paid off.
<h3>What is compound interest?</h3>The amount of money earned, in compound interest, after t years, is given by:
In which:
- A(t) is the amount of money after t years.
- P is the principal(the initial sum of money).
- r is the interest rate(as a decimal value).
- n is the number of times that interest is compounded per year.
For this problem, the parameters are given as follows:
A(0) = 95000, r = 0.06, n = 12.
Hence the value of the loan after t years is:
You have monthly payments of $1,200, hence the amount paid after t years is:
P(t) = 12 x 1,200t = 14400t
Then we have to solve for:
A(t) = P(t)
Which is solved in the graph below, meaning that it will take about 15 years for the loan to be paid off.
