Problem 1: The mean hourly pay of an American Airlines flight attendant is normally distributed with a mean of 40 per hour and a standard deviation of 3.00 per hour. What is the probability that the hourly pay of a randomly selected flight attendant is: Between the mean and $45 per hour? More than $45 per hour? Less than $32 per hour?   Problem 2: The mean of a normal probability distribution is 400 pounds. The standard deviation is 10 pounds. What is the area between 415 pounds and the mean of 400 pounds? What is the area between the mean and 395 pounds? What is the probability of randomly selecting a value less than 395 pounds?   Problem 3: In New York State, the mean salary for high school teachers in 2022 was 81,410 with a standard deviation of 9,500. Only Alaska’s mean salary was higher. Assume New York’s state salaries follow a normal distribution. What percent of New York State high school teachers earn between 70,000 and 75,000? What percent of New York State high school…
For all integers a and b if a is congruent to 0(mod n) and b is congruent to 0(mod n) then a+b is congruent 0(mod n) DRAW A KNOW-SHOW TABLE:
Phase 1C: Question Writing and Approval Based on either your own discussion post or ideas sparked from what others mentioned, select two questions you’d like to answer by analyzing data from Census at School.  You will need to select one question from the qualitative category, and one question from the quantitative category. Remember the intent of these questions is to make comparisons and analyze data to eventually make inferences about and possibly draw conclusions about the larger population.  You should make notes as you gather your data on what things might be missing, what factors might be contributing to this data, and what questions you still have.  Qualitative Only Options How are males and females similar or different in their favorite subjects in school? Quantitative Options Do the number of texts sent differ between freshmen and seniors in high school?
