Let s represent number of shirts and h represent number of hats.
We have been given that the organizers of a talent show have budgeted $1800 to buy souvenir clothing to sell at the event. They can buy shirts for $10 each and hats for $8 each.
The cost of s shirts would be and cost of h hats would be
. The cost of s shirts and h hats should be less than or equal to 1800. We can represent this information in an inequality as:
We are also told that organizers plan to buy at least 5 times as many shirts as hats. This means that number of shirts should be greater than or equal to 5 times hats. We can represent this information in an inequality as:
Therefore, the second inequality should be and option C is the correct choice.
Answer:
3.84% probability that it has a low birth weight
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:
If we randomly select a baby, what is the probability that it has a low birth weight?
This is the pvalue of Z when X = 2500. So
has a pvalue of 0.0384
3.84% probability that it has a low birth weight
