The Jayden family eats at a restaurant that is having a 15% discount promotion. Their meal cost $78.90 before the discount, and

they leave a 20% tip. If the tip applies to the cost of the meal before the discount, what is the cost of the meal?

Answer:

The 15% discount means that they only pay 100%-15% = 85% of the meal's bill.

This would cost 85% * 78.65.

However, they also have to pay a 20% tip of the meal cost.

This would cost 20% * 78.65.

Step-by-step explanation:

total Cost = (85% * 78.65) + (20% * 78.65)

= 105% * 78.65

= 1.05 * 78.65

= $82.58

What is the value of x in the equation below? 4(x + 3) = 9x + 16 + 3x
creativ13 [48]

Answer:

x = -1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

4(x + 3) = 9x + 16 + 3x

Distribute the 4

4x +12 = 9x+16+3x

Combine like terms

4x+12 = 12x+16

Subtract 4x

4x-4x+12 = 12x-4x+16

12 = 8x+16

Subtract 16

12-16 = 8x+16-16

-4 =8x

Divide by 8

-4/8 =8x/8

-1/2 =x

Sedaia [141]

Answer:

a) P(X

And we can find this probability using the normal standard distribution or excel and we got:

P(z

b) P(X>40)=P(\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}>\frac{60-\mu}{\sigma})=P(Z>\frac{60-43}{4.5})=P(z>3.78)

And we can find this probability using the complement rule and normal standard distribution or excel and we got:

P(z>3.78)=1-P(Z

c) z=0.674

And if we solve for a we got

a=43 +0.674*4.5=46.033

So the value of height that separates the bottom 75% of data from the top 25% is 46.033.  

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 heights of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

X \sim N(43,4.5)  

Where \mu=43 and \sigma=4.5

Part a

We are interested on this probability

P(X

And the best way to solve this problem is using the normal standard distribution and the z score given by:

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

If we apply this formula to our probability we got this:

P(X

And we can find this probability using the normal standard distribution or excel and we got:

P(z

Part b

P(X>40)=P(\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}>\frac{60-\mu}{\sigma})=P(Z>\frac{60-43}{4.5})=P(z>3.78)

And we can find this probability using the complement rule and normal standard distribution or excel and we got:

P(z>3.78)=1-P(Z

Part c

For this part we want to find a value a, such that we satisfy this condition:

P(X>a)=0.25   (a)

P(X   (b)

Both conditions are equivalent on this case. We can use the z score again in order to find the value a.  

As we can see on the figure attached the z value that satisfy the condition with 0.75 of the area on the left and 0.25 of the area on the right it's z=0.674. On this case P(Z<0.674)=0.75 and P(z>0.674)=0.25

If we use condition (b) from previous we have this:

P(X  

P(z

But we know which value of z satisfy the previous equation so then we can do this:

z=0.674

And if we solve for a we got

a=43 +0.674*4.5=46.033

So the value of height that separates the bottom 75% of data from the top 25% is 46.033.
