In this case we have the following expression:
We know that Karen was trying to factor out this and she found that the greatest common factor of these terms was 2, in other words we can write this expression as:
An area model for this expression could be the area of a rectangle that has the following dimensions:
So the area model can be written as:
Answer:
31.92%
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given;
Population mean; μ = $3.12
Sample mean; x¯ = $3.16
Sample size; n = 10
Standard deviation; σ = $0.27
Z-score formula is; z = (x¯ - μ)/(σ/√n)
z = (3.16 - 3.12)/(0.27/√10)
z = 0.04/(0.08538)
z ≈ 0.47
Now, the percent of other sample means, based on 10 gas stations, that would be greater than the one observed is;
P(x¯ > 3.12) = 1 - P(z < 0.47)
From z-table attached P(z < 0.47) = 0.68082
Thus;
P(z > 0.47) = 1 - 0.68082
P(z > 0.47) ≈ 0.3192
This expressed in percentage is 31.92%
