The amount of gasoline sold each month to customers at Bob's Exxon station in downtown Navasota is a random variable. This rando

m variable can be described as having a normal distribution with mean 2500 gallons and a standard deviation of 200 gallons (and there is no seasonal variation in sales). Exxon will give Bob an all-expense paid trip to College Station, including a free dinner at Burger King, if his station pumps more than 2800 gallons in any one month.
What is the probability that Bob will win that wonderful trip on the basis of his gasoline sales this month?

Answer:

The probability that Bob will win that wonderful trip on the basis of his gasoline sales this month

P(X≥ 2800) = P(Z₁≥1.5) = 0.0768

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>Step(i):-</em></u>

Mean of the Population (μ) = 2500 gallons

Standard deviation of the population (σ) =200 gallons

Let 'X' be a random variable in Normal distribution

Given X = 2800

Z = \frac{x-mean}{S.D} = \frac{2800-2500}{200} = 1.5

<u><em>Step(ii):-</em></u>

The probability that Bob will win that wonderful trip on the basis of his gasoline sales this month

P(X≥ 2800) = P(Z₁≥1.5)

                  = 0.5 - A(Z₁)

                 =  0.5 - A(1.5)

                 =   0.5 -0.4232    ( from normal table)

                = 0.0768

<u><em>Conclusion</em></u>:-

The probability that Bob will win that wonderful trip on the basis of his gasoline sales this month

P(X≥ 2800) = P(Z₁≥1.5) = 0.0768

KarlaPurchase a swimsuit on Amazon the original price of the coat was 75.50 she use the coupon code to receive a 25% discount th
DochEvi [55]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The initial price of the swimsuit that Karla purchased at Amazon was 75.5

she use the coupon code to receive a 25% discount. This means that the value if the discount would be

25/100 × 75.5 = 0.25× 75.5 = 18.86

Therefore, the discounted price of the swimsuit is 75.5 - 18.875 = 56.625

The website applied a 10% service fee for the discount price. This means that the value of the service fee would be

10/100 × 56.625 = 0.1 × 56.625 = 5.6625.

The amount that Karla pays for the swimsuit would be

56.625 + 5.6625 = 62.2875

The difference between the original price and the price that Karla paid would be 75.5 - 62.2875 = 13.2125

The percentage by which the amount that Karla paid was lesser than the original price would be

13.2125/ 75.5 × 100 = 17.5%
