Answer:
10.5 %
<u>Skills needed: Financial Math Essentials</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
1) First, before getting started, let's assume the price of the product is
. This variable will be used a lot throughout the problem (
).
2) Marking a price above means increasing the price in order to make money off of the purchased product. When raising something by
percent, the new price would be
.
---> In this case, the price increased by
percent.
This means that it would be: 
New price is: 
3) The shopkeeper is then offering a
percent discount off of this marked price. When offering a
percent discount price, the new price (with discount), expressed algebraically is: 
---> the expression above simplifies to 
In this case,
, 
---> 
This means that
, with discount, has been raised
.
10.5 % is the profit percent
(The profit percent being the final marked up price - purchased price)
Answer:
Weights of at least 340.1 are in the highest 20%.
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:

a. Highest 20 percent
At least X
100-20 = 80
So X is the 80th percentile, which is X when Z has a pvalue of 0.8. So X when Z = 0.842.




Weights of at least 340.1 are in the highest 20%.
I think its about 62 hours because you multiply the 185 days by 20 minutes and get 3,700 so you divide that by 60 and get 61.6666667. so the answer is 62 hours?
