Answer:
72.91%, that is, approximately 73% of medium-sized dogs have a heart rate that is lower than Scooter's
Step-by-step explanation:
Problems of normally distributed samples can be solved using the z-score formula.
In a set with mean
and standard deviation
, the zscore of a measure X is given by:
![Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=Z%20%3D%20%5Cfrac%7BX%20-%20%5Cmu%7D%7B%5Csigma%7D)
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:
![\mu = 115, \sigma = 18](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cmu%20%3D%20115%2C%20%5Csigma%20%3D%2018)
Lower than 126 beats per minute
pvalue of Z when X = 126. So
![Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=Z%20%3D%20%5Cfrac%7BX%20-%20%5Cmu%7D%7B%5Csigma%7D)
![Z = \frac{126 - 115}{18}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=Z%20%3D%20%5Cfrac%7B126%20-%20115%7D%7B18%7D)
![Z = 0.61](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=Z%20%3D%200.61)
has a pvalue of 0.7291
72.91%, that is, approximately 73% of medium-sized dogs have a heart rate that is lower than Scooter's
% of 15 in 500= (15÷500)×100
= 0.03×100
= 3 %

Answer:
![\$1.79\ per\ pound](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5C%241.79%5C%20per%5C%20pound)
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
To find the unit rate, divide the total dollar amount Skyler paid by the total pounds of nectarines
Let
x ----> the total dollar amount
y ----> the total pounds of nectarines
we have
![x=\$8.95\\y=5\ pounds](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=x%3D%5C%248.95%5C%5Cy%3D5%5C%20pounds)
so
the unit rate is
![\frac{x}{y}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cfrac%7Bx%7D%7By%7D)
substitute the values
![\frac{8.95}{5}=\$1.79\ per\ pound](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cfrac%7B8.95%7D%7B5%7D%3D%5C%241.79%5C%20per%5C%20pound)
