The SAT mathematics scores in the state of Florida for this year are approximately normally distributed with a mean of 500 and a standard deviation of 100.Using the empirical rule, what is the probability that a randomly selected score lies between 500 and 700? Express your answer as a decimal.

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: The answer to the problem presented above is .475. Using the empirical rule, the probability that a randomly selected score lies between 500 and 700 (which is 2 standard deviations above the mean) is .475 or 47.5%. 
Answer 2
Answer:

Answer:

0.4772

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean = \mu = 500

Standard deviation = \sigma = 100

Now we are supposed to find  the probability that a randomly selected score lies between 500 and 700.

Formula : z=(x-\mu)/(\sigma)

At x = 500

z=(500-500)/(100)

z=(0)/(100)

At x = 700

z=(700-500)/(100)

z=(200)/(100)

z=2

Now to find P(500<z<700)

P(0<z<2) =P(z<2)-P(z<0)

Now using z table :

P(z<2)-P(z<0) =0.9772-0.5000=0.4772

Thus the probability that a randomly selected score lies between 500 and 700 is 0.4772.

You but a container of cat litter for 12.25 and a bag of cat food for x dial let's. The total is 19.08 witch includes 6% tax sales. Write and solve an equation to find the cost of the cat food.

Answers

Answer:

The price of cat food is 5.75 dial

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The price of container of litter = 12.25 dial

The price of cat food  = x  dial

The total price of items = 19.08 dial including 6% sales tax

So, The total price of item excluding sales tax is A

Or, A + 6% of A = 19.08

So, 1.06 × A = 19.08

Or, A = (19.08)/(1.06)

∴   A = 18 dial

Now, The price of cat food = Total price of item excluding tax - price of container of litter

Or,  The price of cat food = 18 dial - 12.25 dial

∴  The price of cat food = 5.75 dial

Hence The price of cat food is 5.75 dial    Answer
