The number of miles a motorcycle, X, will travel on one gallon of gasoline is modeled by a normal distribution with mean 44 and standard deviation 5. If Mike starts a journey with one gallon of gasoline in the motorcycle, find the probability that, without refueling, he can travel more than 50 miles.

Student pricing at the movie theater is a common example of third-degree price discrimination. What is it about students, as compared to everyone else, that makes movie theaters want or need to charge them a lower price? Why is it important for movie theaters to make students show their IDs? Additionally, suppose a student could buy as many tickets as they wanted with their ID. How might that limit the theater’s ability to charge two drastically different prices for students and non-students?

Program this scenario in C.
Scenario:
I am in highschool and i want to go see a movie. I have a certain amount of money to spend. Matinees are $8.50 and Evening Showings are $11.75. There is a G, PG, PG-13, and R movie at the theater. Ask the highschooler their age and how much money they have. With this info determine what showtime they can go see and what movies they are not allowed to see. Make it fun by assigning movie titles instead of ratings.
