5) The mean cost of gas in the U.S (in November, 2022) is $3.74 per gallon with a standard deviation of $0.21. Gas prices in the U.S. are know are known to normally distributed. a) Find and interpret the z-score for a gas price of $2.97 per gallon. b) If you randomly selected a gas station in the U.S. (in November, 2022), what is the probability that the gas at that station costs less than $3.53

a) Explain how you would use SE&C to transfer a given angle α to an arbitrary point and position in the plane. Justify how you know your procedure works. b) Explain how you would use SE&C to construct the angle bisector of a given angle. Prove that your construction works.

Beginning with a square piece of paper, make three folds as shown by the dashed lines in Figure b, except instead of making the vertical fold that divides the square in half, make the vertical fold pass through point P. Call the new point P' (See Figure (b)). What is the distance from the point P' to each side of the piece of paper?. If we continue to repeat this process, what numbers can we construct by folding a square piece of paper with side length 1? Figure (b) P'
