A) For this problem, we will need to use a normal calculation, in that we find the z-score and the area to the right using Table A.
z = (10 - 7.65) / 1.45
z = 1.62
area to the left for a z-score of 1.62 = 0.9474
area to the right for a z-score of 1.62 = 0.0526
The probability that a randomly selected ornament will cost more than $10 is 0.0526 or 5.26%.
B) For this problem, we will use the binomial probability formula since the problem is asking for the probability that exactly 3 ornaments cost over $10. There are two forms of this equation. One is <em>nCr x p^r x q^n-r</em> and the other is <em>(n r) x p^r x (1 - p)^n-r</em>. I will show both formulas below.
8C3 x 0.0526^3 x 0.9474^5
(8 3) x 0.0526^3 x 0.9474^5
With both equations, the answer is the same. Whichever you are more familiar or comfortable with is the one I would recommend you use.
The probability that exactly 3 of the 8 ornaments cost over $10 is 0.00622 or 0.622%.

Answer: It is D
Step-by-step explanation:
For Kohl’s:
Purchase Price:
$60
Discount:
(60 x 25)/100 = $15.00
Final Price:
60 - 15.00 = $45.00
You would save $15.00 from Kohl’s and pay only $45.00
For Target:
Purchase Price:
$38
Discount:
(38 x 15)/100 = $5.70
Final Price:
38 - 5.70 = $32.30
You would save $5.70 from Target and pay only $32.30
Hope this helps! :)
