The XO Group Inc. conducted a survey of 13,000 brides and grooms married in the United States and found that the average cost of

a wedding is $29,858 (XO Group website, January 5, 2015). Assume that the cost of a wedding is normally distributed with a mean of $29,858 and a standard deviation of $5600.
a. What is the probability that a wedding costs less than $20,000 (to 4 decimals)?
b. What is the probability that a wedding costs between $20,000 and $30,000 (to 4 decimals)?
c. For a wedding to be among the 5% most expensive, how much would it have to cost (to the nearest whole number)?

Answer:

0.0392,0.4709, 38083

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that XO Group Inc. conducted a survey of 13,000 brides and grooms married in the United States and found that the average cost of a wedding is $29,858

X is N(29,858, 5600)

Or Z=\frac{x-29158}{5600} is N*(0,1)

We can use std normal distribution table to get the probabilities

a) The probability that a wedding costs less than $20,000 (to 4 decimals)

= P(X

=0.0392

b) the probability that a wedding costs between $20,000 and $30,000

=0.5101-0.0392\\=0.4709

c) For a wedding to be among the 5% most expensive, how much would it have to cost (to the nearest whole number)

=29858+1.645*5600\\=38083

In a hospital, there are 250 registered nurses. 100 of the nurses are males. What is the ratio of male nurses to female nurses i
Dimas [21]

Answer:

The ratio of male nurses to female nurse in lowest terms is: 2:5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: In a hospital, there are  total 250 registered nurses.

Number of nurses are males = 100

Number of nurses are females = 250 - 100 = 150  [ Total nurses - number of male nurses]

To find the ratio of male nurse to female nurses in lowest terms;

A ratio shows that the relative sizes of two or more values.

Then,

\frac{Number of male nurses}{Number of female nurses} = \frac{100}{250}

or

= \frac{100}{250} =\frac{10}{25} =\frac{2}{5} = 2:5

Therefore, the ratio of male nurses to female nurses in lowest terms is; 2 :5

An election for a new treasurer was held at a recent trade conference. In the election, Jamal received 40% of the votes, and his
Maurinko [17]

Answer:

Jamal received 2,880 votes

Step-by-step explanation:

In the election,

Jamal received 40% of all votes

Tran received 100% - 40% = 60% that is 4,320 votes

Let x be the number of votes Jamal received. Then

x - 40%

4,320 - 60%

Write a proportion:

\dfrac{x}{4,320}=\dfrac{40}{60}\\ \\\text{Cross multiply}\\ \\60\cdot x=40\cdot 4,320\\ \\x=\dfrac{40\cdot 4,320}{60}=\dfrac{2\cdot 4,320}{3}=\dfrac{2\cdot 1,440}{1}=2,880
