Answer:

0.33411

The probability that a particular criminal trial lasted atleast 24 days is 0.33411

Step-by-step explanation:

The random variable X is normally distributed with a mean of 21 and standard deviation of 7

;

X ~ N(μ = 21 ; σ = 7)

X ~ N(21, 7)

Probability that a trial lasted atleast 24 days :

P(X ≥ 24) :

The standardized score :

Z = (x - μ) / σ ; (24 - 21) / 7 ; 3 / 7 = 0.4286

Hence,

P(Z ≥ 0.4286) = 0.33411

The probability that a particular criminal trial lasted atleast 24 days is 0.33411

To make a profit, a clothing store sells jeans at 115% the amount they paid for them. How much did the store pay for the jeans s
Svetllana [295]

Answer:

The store paid 6.67 times the profit made on the jeans

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the amount the clothing store pay for Jean be X

Let the amount the clothing store sells Jean be Y = X ×1.15

The profit (P) made is the difference between amount the clothing store sells Jean and the amount paid for Jean = Y - X = 1.15X - X

Profit (P)  = 0.15X

X =  P/0.15 = 6.67P

Therefore, the store paid 6.67 times the profit made on the jeans

If line A contains Q(5,1) and is parallel to line MN with M(-2,4) and N(2,1), which ordered pair would be on the perpendicular t
vivado [14]
Your question does not say what were your options, therefore I will answer generically: in order to understand if a point (ordered pair) is contained in a line, you need to substitute the x-component of the pair in the equation of the line and see if the calculations give you the y-component of the pair.

Example:
Your line is <span> y = 4/3x + 1/3
Let's see if <span>(0, 0) and (2, 3) </span>belong to this line

y</span> = <span>4/3·0 + 1/3 = 1/3 </span>≠ 0
Therefore, the line does not contain (0, 0)

y = 4/3·2 + 1/3 = 9/3 = 3
Therefore, the line contains (2, 3)
