Answer:

15%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

Selling price = SP

Cost price = CP

If CP = 100

Profit = selling price - cost price

x% = SP - x% of 100

x% + 100x% = SP

SP = 100 (1 + x/100) (1)

If CP = 92

SP = 92 (1+ {x+10}/100)

Equate both SP

100 (1 + x/100) = 92 (1+ {x+10}/100)

100 + x = 92 + [{23/25} * (x+10)]

{2/25}x = 30/25

x = 30/25 ÷ 2/25

= 30/25 × 25/2

= 30/2

x = 15%

The times to process orders at the service counter of a pharmacy are exponentially distributed with mean 1 0 minutes. If 100 cus
g100num [7]

Answer:

Therefore,  the probability that at least half of them need to wait more than 10 minutes is <em>0.0031</em>.

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the probability of an exponential distribution is:

P(x < b) = 1 - e^(b/3)

Using the complement rule, we can determine the probability of a customer having to wait more than 10 minutes, by:

p = P(x > 10)

  = 1 - P(x < 10)

  = 1 - (1 - e^(-10/10) )

  = e⁻¹

  = 0.3679

The z-score is the difference in sample size and the population mean, divided by the standard deviation:

z = (p' - p) / √[p(1 - p) / n]

  = (0.5 - 0.3679) / √[0.3679(1 - 0.3679) / 100)]

  = 2.7393

Therefore, using the probability table, you find that the corresponding probability is:

P(p' ≥ 0.5) = P(z > 2.7393)

<em>P(p' ≥ 0.5) = 0.0031</em>

<em></em>

Therefore,  the probability that at least half of them need to wait more than 10 minutes is <em>0.0031</em>.
