Answer:
When we divide powers of the same base, this means that we have to do is subtract the exponents. ... In other words, all we would need is to divide two powers that have the same exponent then the subtraction would lead to zero
To find the value of x , bring the variable to the left side and bring all the remaining values to the right side. simplify the values to find the result.
The distribution of X is X ~ N (20 , 6) and the probability that this American will receive no more than 24 Christmas cards this year is 0.7486.
<h3>Probability</h3>
a. Distribution
X ~ N (20 , 6)
b. P(x ≤24)
= P[(x - μ ) / σ (24 - 20) / 6]
= P(z ≤0.67)
= 0.74857
=0.7486
Hence:
Probability = 0.7486
c. P(21 < x < 26)
= P[(21 - 26)/ 6) < (x - μ ) / σ < (24 - 20) / 6) ]
= P(-0.83 < z < 0.67)
= P(z < 0.67) - P(z < -0.)
= 0.74857- 0.2033
= 0.54527
Hence:
Probability =0.54527
d. Using standard normal table ,
P(Z < z) = 66%
P(Z < 0.50) = 0.66
z = 0.50
Using z-score formula,
x = z× σ + μ
x = 0.50 × 6 + 20 = 23
23 Christmas cards
Therefore the distribution of X is X ~ N (20 , 6) and the probability that this American will receive no more than 24 Christmas cards this year is 0.7486.
