we are given

f(x)=5|x-8|+20

where

x is number of hours

f(x) is dollars he charges

The charges will be lowest when absolute value will become 0

so, we can set value inside absolute function equals to 0

and then we can solve for x

x-8=0

x=8 hours............Answer

Answer:

The function which is used to find number of Dollars charged by charles

f(x)=5|x-8|+20

Minimum Hourly rate can be calculated, when

|x-8| is minimum.

→|x-8|=0,as Modulus of function is always ≥0.

→x-8=0 ∧ → -(x-8)=0

→x=8 ∧ x=8

Lowest hourly rate that Charles charges is , f(8)

=5×|8-8|+20

=5×0+20

=$20 per Hour

The heights of 1000 students are approximately normally distributed with a mean of 174.5 centimeters and a standard deviation of
yuradex [85]
A. The mean and standard deviation.

The mean of a sampling distribution is approximately equal to the mean of the population. Given that the mean of the population is equal to 174.5, the mean of the sampling distribution is also this value.

The standard deviation of a sample distribution is equal to,

                u(m) = u/sqrt n

Substituting the known values,

               u(m) = 6.9 / sqrt 25 = 1.38

b. Get the z-score of both items,
         
      z-score = (data point - mean) / standard deviation

 z-score of 172.5
     z-score = (172.5 - 174.5) / 1.38 = -1.49
This translates to 0.068.

z-score of 175.8
   z-score = (175.8 - 174.5) / 1.38 = 0.94
This translates to 0.83. 

The difference between the two z-scores is 0.762. 

 The number of samples with this height is 0.762(200) which is equal to approximately 152.

c. z-score of 172 centimeters
   
    z-score = (172 - 174.5) / 1.38
  
    z-score = -1.81
This translates to 0.03.

The number of people with this height from the sample is (0.03)(200) = 6
