"semi-monthly" means getting paid twice a month, so to find walt's semi-monthly salary, all you'd have to do here is divide his monthly salary in half. he'd get like two installments in one month if that makes sense
6962/2 = 3481
his semi-monthly salary is $3,481
a. What percent of people earn less than $40000?
Solution: Let S be the random variable of a salary of employee (in $), S ~ N(50000,20000). Then the random
variable X =−50000
20000
~N(0,1).
( < 40000) = ( <
40000 − 50000
20000 ) = ( < −0.5) = (−0.5) = 0.3085375.
Here Φ(x) denotes the cumulative distribution function of a standard normal distribution.
Answer: 31%.
b. What percent of people earn between $45000 and $65000?
Solution:
(45000 < < 65000) = (
45000 − 50000
20000 < <
65000 − 50000
20000 ) = (−0.25 < < 0.75)
= (0.75) − (−0.25) = 0.7733726 − 0.4012937 = 0.3720789.
Answer: 37%.
c. What percent of people earn more than $70000?
Solution:
( > 70000) = ( >
70000 − 50000
20000 ) = ( > 1) = 0.8413447.
Answer: 84%.
True statements:
a) x + y = y + x ⇒ commutative property of addition
b) (x * y) * z = x * (y * z) ⇒ associative property of multiplication
d) (x + y) + z = x + (y + z) ⇒ associative property of addition
False statements:
c) x - y = y - x should be: x - y = - y + x
e) (x - y) - z = x - (y - z) should be: (x - y) - z = x - (y + z)
Answer:
35
Step-by-step explanation:
if you order the numbers from least to greatest, there are 14 numbers (which is even which means their is going to be two median. when you have two medians you add them and then divide them by 2) 35 + 35 = 70, 70 divided by 2 is 35. the answer is 35!
