150+-+2.576+%2A+%2815.50%2Fsqrt%2860%29%29 = 150+-+2.576+%2A+%2815.50%2F7.7460%29 = 150+-+2.576+%2A+%282.0010%29 = 150+-+5.1546 = 144.8454 = $144.85

150+%2B+2.576+%2A+%2815.50%2Fsqrt%2860%29%29 = 150+-+2.576+%2A+%2815.50%2F7.7460%29 = 150+-+2.576+%2A+%282.0010%29 = 150+%2B+5.1546 = 155.1546 = $155.15
