Using the Empirical Rule, the percentage of students who scored greater than 700 is:
b. 2.5%
What does the Empirical Rule state?It states that, for a normally distributed random variable:
Approximately 68% of the measures are within 1 standard deviation of the mean.Approximately 95% of the measures are within 2 standard deviations of the mean.Approximately 99.7% of the measures are within 3 standard deviations of the mean.700 is two standard deviations above the mean. 5% of the measures are more than two standard deviations of the mean. Since the normal distribution is symmetric, 2.5% of these measures are below 300 and 2.5% are above 700, hence option B is correct.

Your class is selling boxes of flower seeds as a fundraiser. The total profit p depends on the amount x that your class charges for each box of seeds. The equation p= -0.5x2 + 36x - 231 models the profit of the fundraiser. What's the smallest amount, in dollars, that you can charge and make a profit of at least $363?
Answer:
The least amount is $75.50
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]p \to profit[/tex]
[tex]x \to amount[/tex]
[tex]p = -0.5x^2 + 36x - 231[/tex]
Required
The smallest amount to make at least 363
We have:
[tex]p = -0.5x^2 + 36x - 231[/tex]
Rewrite as:
[tex]-0.5x^2 + 36x - 231=p[/tex]
Substitute 363 for p
[tex]-0.5x^2 + 36x - 231 = 363[/tex]
Collect like terms
[tex]-0.5x^2 + 36x - 231 + 363 = 0[/tex]
[tex]-0.5x^2 + 36x + 132 = 0[/tex]
Using quadratic formula, we have:
[tex]x = \frac{-b \± \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a}[/tex]
Where:
[tex]a = -0.5; b= 36; c = 132[/tex]
So, we have:
[tex]x = \frac{-36 \± \sqrt{36^2 - 4*-0.5*132}}{2*-0.5}[/tex]
[tex]x = \frac{-36 \± \sqrt{1560}}{-1}[/tex]
[tex]x = \frac{-36 \± 39.50}{-1}[/tex]
Split
[tex]x = \frac{-36 + 39.50}{-1}; x = \frac{-36 - 39.50}{-1}[/tex]
[tex]x = \frac{3.50}{-1}; x = \frac{-75.50}{-1}[/tex]
[tex]x = 75.50[/tex] and [tex]x = -3.50[/tex]
The amount can't be negative.
So:
[tex]x = 75.50[/tex]
Hence, the least amount is $75.50

Suppose a fair six sided die has been relabeled so that the 6 is replaced with another 5,i.e., the sides read 1,2,3,4,5,5. If the die is rolled five times, what is the probability that we roll five distinct values
Answer:
P(rolling five distinct values) = 1/3888
Step-by-step explanation:
We are told that I the fair sided dice, 6 is replaced with 5.
Thus,the numbers are now;
1,2,3,4,5,5.
This means a total of 6 possible numbers appearing.
Now, in these 6 numbers there are only 5 distinct numbers since 5 occurs twice.
P(1) = 1/6
P(2) = 1/6
P(3) = 1/6
P(4) = 1/6
P(5) = 2/6
Thus,probability of rolling 5 distinct values = 1/6 × 1/6 × 1/6 × 1/6 × 2/6 = 1/3888

Suppose customers arrive at a single-server ice cream parlor times 3, 6, 15, and 17. Further suppose that it takes the server 7, 9, 6, and 8 minutes, respectively, to serve the four customers. When does customer 4 leave the shoppe
9514 1404 393
Answer:
time 33
Step-by-step explanation:
The first customer arrives at time 3, and is finished being served at time 3+7 = 10.
The second customer arrives at time 6, so waits until time 10 to be served. The second customer is finished being served at time 10+9 = 19.
The third and fourth customers arrive at times 15 and 17. The third customer waits until time 19 to be served, and is finished being served at time 19+6 = 25.
The fourth customer waits until time 25 to be served, and is finished being served at time 25+8 = 33.
The fourth customer leaves at time 33.

Three coffees and two muffins cost a total of 7 dollars. Two coffees and four muffins cost a total of 8 dollars. What is the individual price for a single coffee and a single muffin?
Answer:
Cost of a coffee = $1.5
Cost of a muffin = $1.25
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Cost of 3 coffee and 2 muffins = $7
Cost of 2 coffee and 4 muffins = $8
Find:
Cost of each
Computation:
Assume;
Cost of a coffee = a
Cost of a muffin = b
So,
3a + 2b = 7 .......... Eq1
2a + 4b = 8 .......... Eq2
Eq1 x 2
6a + 4b = 14 ......... Eq3
From Eq3 - Eq2
4a = 6
a = 1.5
Cost of a coffee = $1.5
3a + 2b = 7
3(1.5) + 2b = 7
4.5 + 2b = 7
b = 2.5/2
b = 1.25
Cost of a muffin = $1.25

Simplify the fraction.
Answer:
[tex]sin(\theta) = \frac{\sqrt{17} }{7}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that:
sin(x)^2 + cos(x)^2 = 1
And we know that:
[tex]cos(\theta) = \frac{4\sqrt{2}}{7} }[/tex]
We want to find the value of the sine function evaluated in theta.
If we replace that in the first equation, we get:
[tex]sin(\theta)^2 + cos(\theta)^2 = 1[/tex]
[tex]sin(\theta)^2 + (\frac{4*\sqrt{2} }{7}) ^2 = 1[/tex]
[tex]sin(\theta)^2 + (\frac{4^2*\sqrt{2}^2 }{7^2}) = 1[/tex]
[tex]sin(\theta)^2 + (\frac{16*2 }{49}) = 1[/tex]
Now we can just isolate the sine part of that equation, so we get:
[tex]sin(\theta)^2 = - (\frac{16*2 }{49}) + 1 = \frac{-32}{49} + \frac{49}{49} = \frac{-32 + 49}{49} = \frac{17}{49}[/tex]
[tex]sin(\theta) = \sqrt{\frac{17}{49} } = \frac{\sqrt{17} }{\sqrt{49} } = \frac{\sqrt{17} }{7}[/tex]

A well-conducted opinion poll showed that 48% of voters surveyed favored the reelection of Congressman Porkbarrel. The people who conducted the survey reported that the poll had a margin of error of 3.5%. Which of the following best describes this statement
A. Based on the procedure by which this figure was generated, it is likely that the population proportion is between 44.5% and 51.5%.
B. About 3.5% of the people polled are likely to change their minds about who they will vote foir.
C. Between 44.5% and 51.5% of the voters will vote for Congressman Porkbarrel.
D. About 3.5% ofthe people interviewed refused to answer the question.
E. The probability is .48 that Congressman Porkbarrel will be reelected.
Answer:
A. Based on the procedure by which this figure was generated, it is likely that the population proportion is between 44.5% and 51.5%.
Step-by-step explanation:
Confidence interval:
We build a confidence interval from a sample proportion, to get an estimate of where the population proportion should likely be.
48% of voters surveyed favored the reelection of Congressman Porkbarrel, with a margin of error of 3.5%.
48 - 3.5 = 44.5%.
48 + 3.5 = 51.5%.
Following the concept of a confidence interval, the population proportion is likely to be between 44.5% and 51.5%, and thus, the correct answer is given by option A.
You fllp a fair coln 7 times in a row. Let X be the number of heads that come up. Which of the following cannot be a
possible value of X?
2
0
7
16
Answer:
16
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
A coin
[tex]n = 7[/tex] --- Number of flips
[tex]x \to heads[/tex]
Required
Which can't be the value of x
From the question, we understand that the coin was flipped 7 times.
This means that, the highest occurrence of head is:
[tex]x = 7[/tex]
And the list is:
[tex]x = 0[/tex]
So, the range of x is:
[tex]x = \{0,1,2,....,7\}[/tex]
In the above range, only (16) is out of range.
Hence:
[tex]x \ne 16[/tex] --- Number of heads can't be 16
what is the solution set for this inequalty? -8x + 40> -16
Answer:
x < 7
Step-by-step explanation:
-8x + 40> -16
Subtract 40 from each side
-8x + 40-40> -16-40
-8x >-56
Divide each side by -8, remembering to flip the inequality
-8x/-8 < -56/-8
x < 7
