Answer:
171 newspapers.
Step-by-step explanation:
Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.
In a set with mean 
and standard deviation 
, the zscore of a measure X is given by:
The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.
In this problem, we have that:
How many newspapers should the newsstand operator order to ensure that he runs short on no more than 20% of days
The number of newspapers must be on the 100-20 = 80th percentile. So this value if X when Z has a pvalue of 0.8. So X when Z = 0.84.
So 171 newspapers.
Answer:
60
Step-by-step explanation:
15 times 5 is 75 75 minus 15 is 60 so the answer is 60
Slope-intercept form is:
y = mx + b
"m" is the slope, "b" is the y-intercept (the y value when x = 0)
(there is probably another way to do this, but I will be doing it this way)
Isolate the "y" in the equation
3x + 4y = 12 Subtract 3x on both sides
4y = 12 - 3x Divide 4 on both sides
or 
The slope is -3/4
For lines to be parallel, they have to have the SAME slope. The given line's slope is -3/4, so the slope of the parallel line is also 
Answer:
15% increase per year.
Step-by-step explanation:
5,600 - 3,500 = 2,100
2,100 is what percent of 3,500?
2,100 = X*3,500
X = 2,100 / 3,500
X = .60 or 60%
An average of 15% increase per year.
Answer:
x=27
Step-by-step explanation:
Triangle angle =180 degrees
180＝2x+5+x＋17＋3x-4
180=6x+18
(180-18)/6=x
x=27
