Homework Answers

Answer #1

= 12324

= 2345

a. P(x <12000)

The probability that Z<−0.138 is equal to the blue area under the curve.

P ( Z<−0.138 )=1−P ( Z<0.138 )

P ( Z<0.138 )=0.5557 (from standard normal table)

P ( Z<−0.138 )=1−P ( Z<0.138 )=1−0.5557=0.4443

Probability that revenue on a particular day is less than 12000 is 0.4443

b. Probability of firing = 5% =0.05

z value for 0.05 = -1.645

x= 8466.48

Amt at which the probabiltiy of firing is 5% = 8466.48
