Answer:
(b) 15.32
Step-by-step explanation:
You can use your triangle sense to answer this.
The side x will always be shorter than the hypotenuse, 20. This eliminates the last two choices.
If the angle is 45°, then the sides are equal at about 0.707 times the length of the hypotenuse. That would make them 0.707×20 = 14.14. Since the angle is greater than 45°, the opposite side will be greater than 14.14. Only one answer choice fits between 14 and 20: the second choice -- 15.32.

The mnemonic SOH CAH TOA reminds you of the relation ...
Sin = Opposite/Hypotenuse
sin(50°) = x/20
x = 20×sin(50°) . . . . multiply by 20 to find x
x ≈ 15.32 . . . . . . . . . use your calculator to evaluate

Answer:
0.9792
Step-by-step explanation:
Data provided in the question:
Average gross sales = $1,240
Standard deviation = $180
sample size = 40
Now,
standard deviation of sample average
=
=
= 28.46
Now,
z value for 1200 = = -1.4,
and,
p value for (z = -1.4) = 0.0808
therefore,
P(average < $1200) = 0.0808
Thus,
probability that the average over the next 40 weekdays will exceed $1,200
= 1 - 0.808
= 0.9792
