Answer: The percentage of legal quarters will be rejected by the vending machine = 2.275%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The weights of legal U.S. quarters have a normal distribution with a mean of 5.67 grams and a standard deviation of 0.07 gram.

Let x be the weights of legal U.S. quarters .

Required probability: P(x5.81)

=P(\dfrac{x-\mu}{\sigma}\dfrac{5.81-5.67}{0.07})\\\\=P(z2)\approx0.02275    \ \ \ [By\  P-value\ calculator]

The percentage of legal quarters will be rejected by the vending machine = 2.275%

Countering a cost $9.40 per sales tax. After sales tax, it cost $9.87. What is the sales tax rate?
Nady [450]
STEP 1:
find the sales tax (decimal form)

x= sales tax

Cost + (Cost * Sales Tax)= Total
plug in known numbers

$9.40 + ($9.40 * x)= $9.87

9.40 + 9.40x= 9.87
subtract 9.40 from both sides

9.40x= 0.47
divide both sides by 9.40

x= 0.47/9.40

x= 0.05 sales tax decimal form


STEP 2:
find sales tax percentage

= 0.05 * 100
or move decimal to the right two decimal places

= 5% sales tax percent form


ANSWER: The sales tax is 5% (or 0.05 in decimal form)

Hope this helps! :)
