Answer:

6.7%

Step-by-step explanation:

cost: 75 cedis

sale price: 80 cedis

amount of profit: 80 cedis - 75 cedis = 5 cedis

Now we find what percent 5 cedis is of 75 cedis.

percent = part/whole * 100%

percent = 5/75 * 100%

percent = 0.06666 * 100%

percent = 6.6666%

percent = 6.7%

Lilit [14]

Answer-

In 25.15% cases their response times is over 30 minutes.

Solution-

Hint- Calculating the z-score (how much standard deviations away from the mean) and then getting the corresponding probability value from normal distribution table we can get solution.

Applying the formula for Z-score,

$Z=\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}$

Here,

X = score = 30,

μ = mean = 22,

σ = standard deviation = 11.9

Putting the values,

$\Rightarrow Z=\frac{30-22}{11.9}=0.67$

$\therefore P(x>30)=1-P(Z\leq 0.67)=1-0.7485=0.2515=25.15\%$

(Subtracted from 1 as the values of area to the left of the Z score is given in table, but we need the area right to Z score as response times more than 30 minutes is asked)
