Answer: The first machine would cost $420
and the second machine would cost $432
you should buy the first machine
Step-by-step explanation:If you get a 30% discount, then you are paying 70% of the selling price.
Machine 1: 600(.70) = 420
Machine 2: A 10% discount means you pay 90%
600(.90) = 540 But now you get a 20% discount on that amount, which means you would pay 80%
So, 540(.80) = 432

Step-by-step explanation:
The comptroller takes a random sample of 36 of the account balances and calculates the standard deviation to be N42.00. If the actual mean (1) of the account balances is N175.00, what is the probability that the sample mean would be between
a. N164.50 and N185.50?
b. greater than N180.00?
c. less than N168.00?
We solve the above question using z score formula
z = (x-μ)/σ/√n where
x is the raw score,
μ is the population mean = N175
σ is the population standard deviation = N42
n is random number of sample = 36
a. Between N164.50 and N185.50?
For x = N 164.50
z = 164.50 - 175/42 /√36
z = -1.5
Probability value from Z-Table:
P(x = 164.50) = 0.066807
For x = N185.50
z = 185.50 - 175/42 /√36
z =1.5
Probability value from Z-Table:
P(x=185.50) = 0.93319
Hence:
P(x = 185.50) - P(x =164.50)
= 0.93319 - 0.066807
= 0.866383
Approximately = 0.8664
b. greater than N180.00?
x > N 180
Hence:
z = 180 - 175/42 /√36
z = 5/42/6
z = 5/7
= 0.71429
Probability value from Z-Table:
P(x<180) = 0.76247
P(x>180) = 1 - P(x<180) = 0.23753
c. less than N168.00?
x < N168.
z = 168 - 175/42 /√36
z = -7/42/6
z = -7/7
z = -1
Probability value from Z-Table:
P(x<168) = 0.15866
