The Precision Scientific Instrument Company manufactures thermometers that are supposed to give readings of 0°C at the freezing

point of water. Tests on a large sample of these thermometers reveal that at the freezing point of water, some give readings below 0°C (denoted by negative numbers) and some give readings above 0°C (denoted by positive numbers). Assume that the mean reading is 0°C and the standard deviation of the readings is 1.00°C. Also assume that the frequency distribution of errors closely resembles the normal distribution. A thermometer is randomly selected and tested. Find the temperature reading corresponding to the given information.
​If 6.3% of the thermometers are rejected because they have readings that are too high and another 6.3% are rejected because they have readings that are too low, find the two readings that are cutoff values separating the rejected thermometers from the others.

A: –1.46° , 1.46°

B: –1.45° , 1.45°

C: –1.39° , 1.39°

D: –1.53° , 1.53°

Answer:

-1.53 , 1.53

Step-by-step explanation:

It is basically asking you to find the percentiles. so for the bottom 6.3% you would type into your calculator 2nd, VARS, invNorm, area: .063, mean: 0, and Standard Deviation: 1 which gives you -1.53.

for the upper 6.3% you have to take 1-.063=.937 to get the upper percentile. now type into your calculator 2nd, VARS, invNorm, area: .937, mean: 0, and Standard Deviation: 1 which gives you 1.53.


I hope I helped :D

A pastry recipe calls for 3 cups of flour to make 8 servings. how many cups of flour are needed to make 6 servings?
zimovet [89]
To make one serving you need 3cups/8servings = 3/8 cup.

To make 6 servings you need 3/8cup * 6 servings = 9/4 cups = 2.25 cups.

Please help me with 13 and 15 asap
Law Incorporation [45]
Gosh, I've done this problem before. Let's start with 13. In this problem, we're basically just skip counting. For example, in the roses row, in the second bouquet, we know we have to add 4 more flowers, so we can document 8. Continue to skip count for both. For 15, we would have about 96 more movie posters remaining, making our ratio 96:x. So, 96:x = 120:100. Therefore, x would equal 80- as 96:80 equals 120:100. If she needs 80 and already had 100, she should sell 20 posters. Hope this helped.

ASAP HELPPP NO LINKS! IF THIS IS A FALSE RESPONSE I AM REPORTING
djverab [1.8K]

Answer:

37.699 cubic inches of water

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of a cone is V= 1/3 pi r^2 h

We are given that the height is 5 in and the radius is 2 in.

Plug that into the formula: V= 1/3 pi 2^2 9

1/3 x 4 x 9 = 12

Now we are left with 12 pi.

Use a calculator and multiply 12 by pi to get:

37.699
