Answer:

Using calculator: 0.0415

Using Z-score Table: 0.0418

Step-by-step explanation:

There are two ways you can solve this problem.

1. Use the normal distribution function on a calculator.

Entered values:

Lower Limit: 126

Upper Limit: 999999999999999... (To encompass all the data)

Standard Deviation: 15

Mean: 100

2. Find the Z score and look up probabilities on table.

Formula for Z score:

Z=\frac{x-mean}{standard deviation} \\\\Z= \frac{126-100}{15}=1.7333...

Z = 1.7333

This means that the value 126 is 1.733 standard deviations away from the mean. We can look this value up on the Z table to find its corresponding probability.

This will show us the probability of the random sampling being equal to or lower than 126.

P = 0.9582

So to find the probability of it being above, we simply just calculate the inverse as all probabilities on the curve = 1.

1-0.9582 = 0.0418

NOTE: Values found from the table will usually be a bit different from if you find it from a calculator, the one you need will depend on the method you use in class.

Hope this helped!

Replace the CIRCLES by A and the SQUARES by B:

1) A + B = 14 And

2) A - B = 2

Add 1) + 2)

A+B   =14
A-B    = 2
------   ----
2A+0 = 16 then A = 16/2 = 8. If A = 8, then B = 6

So the CIRCLE = 8  and the SQUARE = 6

8 t-shirts and a hat costs £42 3 t-shirts and a hat costs £17 how much does the hat and t shirt cost
cestrela7 [59]
17 + 5shirts = 42
5shirts = 42-17 = 25
1shirt = 25/5 = 5

A shirt costs £5.

3*5 + 1hat = 17
15 + 1hat = 17
1hat = 2

A hat costs £2
