6% tax means 6% of $3.50

Convert 6% to decimal (move decimal 2 spots to the left): 6% ⇒ .06

Multiply 3.50 with .06 = .21 <-- That's .21 cents of 3.50

That means you have to pay an extra 21 cents. Add that to the $3.50 you had to pay.

$3.50 + $0.21 = $3.71 <-- Price after tax

Researchers at a pharmaceutical company have found that the effective time duration of a safe dosage of pain relief drug is norm

FrozenT [24]

Answer:

a) $P(1$

b) $P(X$

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Previous concepts

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean".

2) Part a

Let X the random variable that represent the duration of a safe dosage of pain relief drug, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

$X \sim N(1.5,0.8)$

Where $\mu=1.5$ and $\sigma=0.8$

We are interested on this probability

$P(1$

And the best way to solve this problem is using the normal standard distribution and the z score given by:

$z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}$

If we apply this formula to our probability we got this:

$P(1$

And we can find this probability on this way:

$P(-0.625$

And in order to find these probabilities we can find tables for the normal standard distribution, excel or a calculator.

$P(-0.625$

3) Part b

We are interested on this probability

$P(X$

And the best way to solve this problem is using the normal standard distribution and the z score given by:

$z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}$

If we apply this formula to our probability we got this:

$P(X$

And we can find this probability on this way:

$P(z$

Answer:6x3+6x8

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you see A is 18 plus 48 you first do 18 sq ft you could multiply 6x3, and 6x3 is one of the options next what x what is 48 that you see of the answers and 6 x 8 is 48 so the answer is the bottom left.
