Let X be a random variable representing the weight of a pack of cookies.
P(X < 250) = P(z < (250 - 255)/2.5) = P(z < -5/2.5) = P(z < -2) = 1 - P(z < 2) = 1 - 0.97725 = 0.02275 = 2.3%
Therefore, we conclude that about 2.3% of the packs weighed less than 250 grams.
What's The Fixed Point? Well, Let's Assume X=0, this is our point.
OR
I'm unaware of the nature of the question, so here are some different ways a fixed point is found based on the merits of the question.
Answer:
23. x = 4; DE = 44
24. x = 25; DS = 28
Step-by-step explanation:
23. Point S is the midpoint of DE, so ...
DS = SE
3x +10 = 6x -2
12 = 3x . . . . . . . . . add 2-3x
4 = x . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 3
Then DS has length ...
DS = 3x +10 = 12 +10 = 22
and DE is twice that length, so ...
DE = 44
__
24. DS is half the length of DE, so is ...
DS = DE/2 = 56/2
DS = 28
Then x can be found from ...
DS = x +3
28 -3 = x = 25 . . . . . substitute value for DS

<em>Comment on problem 24</em>
Sometimes it is easier to work parts of a problem out of sequence. Here, finding DS first makes finding x easier.
Answer:
1 inch
Step-by-step explanation:
The perimeter is the sum of the lengths of the sides:
Perimeter = 3/23 + 9/23 + 11/23 = (3 + 9 + 11)/23 = 23/23 = 1
