Answer:
The coordinates of the mid-point of JL are (-5 , 2)
Step-by-step explanation:
If point (x , y) is the mid-point of a segment whose end-points are
and
, then
and 
∵ JL is a segment
∵ The coordinates of J are (-6 , 1)
∴
= -6 and
= 1
∵ The coordinates of L are (-4 , 3)
∴
= -4 and
= 3
Lets use the rule above to find the mid-point of JL
∵ 
∴ x = -5
∴ The x-coordinate of the mid-point is -5
∵ 
∴ y = 2
∴ The y-coordinate of the mid-point is 2
∴ The coordinates of the mid-point of JL are (-5 , 2)
Answer:
a. 68% of the workers will earn between $47300 and $69700.
b. 2.5% of workers will earn above $89000
c. Approximately 0
Step-by-step explanation:
The standard normal distribution curve in the attached graph is used to solve this question.
a. The value $47300 is a standard deviation below the mean i.e. 58500-11200=47300. While $69700 is a standard deviation above the mean. I.e. 58500+12000=69700.
Between the first deviation below and above the mean, you have 34%+34%=68% of the salary earners within this range. So we have 68%of staffs earning within this range
b. The second standard deviation above the mean is $80900. i.e. 58500+11200+11200=$80900
We have 50%+13.5%+2.5%= 97.5% earning below $80900. Therefore, 100-97.5= 2.5% of the workers earn above this amount.
c. From the Standard Deviation Rule, the probability is only about (1 -0 .997) / 2 = 0.0015 that a normal value would be more than 3 standard deviations away from its mean in one direction or the other. The probability is only 0.0002 that a normal variable would be more than 3.5 standard deviations above its mean. Any more standard deviations than that, and we generally say the probability is approximately zero.
If you don't double check your answers by substituting them back into the original equation, you may be introducing extraneous solutions into the problem which is why you should always check to confirm your answer is accurate. I hope this helps! :)
