We have been given that a company makes wax candles in the shape of a solid sphere. Each candle has a diameter of 15 cm. We are asked to find the number of candles that company can make from 70,650 cubic cm of wax.
To solve our given problem, we will divide total volume of wax by volume of one candle.
Volume of each candle will be equal to volume of sphere.
, where r represents radius of sphere.
We know that radius is half the diameter, so radius of each candle will be cm.
Now we will divide 70,650 cubic cm of wax by volume of one candle.
Therefore, 40 candles can be made from 70,650 cubic cm of wax.
Answer:
And if we solve for a we got
So the value of height that separates the bottom 90% of data from the top 10% is 4.624.
So then the best answer for this case would be:
C. 4.64
Step-by-step explanation:
Previous concepts
Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".
The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean".
Solution to the problem
Let X the random variable that represent the weights of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:
Where and
For this part we want to find a value a, such that we satisfy this condition:
(a)
(b)
Both conditions are equivalent on this case. We can use the z score again in order to find the value a.
As we can see on the figure attached the z value that satisfy the condition with 0.9 of the area on the left and 0.1 of the area on the right it's z=1.28. On this case P(Z<1.28)=0.9 and P(z>1.28)=0.1
If we use condition (b) from previous we have this:
But we know which value of z satisfy the previous equation so then we can do this:
And if we solve for a we got
So the value of height that separates the bottom 90% of data from the top 10% is 4.624.
So then the best answer for this case would be:
C. 4.64
