The probability that the sample mean would be less than 43.4 dollars is 0.9292.

<h3>What is a probability?</h3>

Probability is the occurence of likely events. It is the area of mathematics that deals with numerical estimates of the likelihood that an event will occur or that a statement is true.

From the information, the mean cost of a five pound bag of shrimp is 42 dollars with a variance of 49 and a sample of 54 bags of shrimp is randomly selected.

Therefore, the probability will be:

P(x < 43.4)

Using normal distribution

= P(z < 43.4 - Mean( / 7/✓54)

= P(z < 43.4 - 42( / 7/✓54)

= P(z < 1.4697)

= 0.9292

The probability is 0.9292.

Answer:

5.59 times per second.

Step-by-step explanation:

Direct variation is in the form:

y=kx

Where <em>k</em> is the constant of variation.

Inverse variation is in the form:

\displaystyle y=\frac{k}{x}

In the given problem, the frequency of a vibrating guitar string varies inversely  as its length. In other words, using <em>f</em> for frequency and <em>l</em> for length:

\displaystyle f=\frac{k}{\ell}

We can solve for the constant of variation. We know that the frequency <em>f</em> is 4.3 when the length is 0.65 meters long. Thus:

\displaystyle 4.3=\frac{k}{0.65}

Solve for <em>k: </em>

<em />k=4.3(0.65)=2.795<em />

<em />

So, our equation becomes:

\displaystyle f=\frac{2.795}{\ell}

Then when the length is 0.5 meters, the frequency will be:

\displaystyle f=\frac{2.795}{.5}=5.59\text{ times per second.}

The residents of a city voted on whether to raise property taxes. The ratio of yes votes to no votes was 3 to 5. If there were 7
Zinaida [17]

Answer:

2967 yes votes

Step-by-step explanation:

Welcome to Brainly!

One way of doing this problem follows:

Find the ratio, r, mentioned in the problem statement.  To do this,

write the equation 3r + 5r = 7912 and solve this for r:

8r = 7912, so that r = 989.

Then the number of yes votes was 3(989), or 2967, and the number of no votes was 5(989), or 4947.

check:  Does the ratio 2967/4947 equal 3/5?  yes.

There were 2967 yes votes.
