okay so the first step in finding the answer is to see what the formula is to determine the area of a rectangle.

do you know the formula?

okay so the formula is A = L * W

where the L stands for length

and the W stands for Width

so based on the picture can you determine what the length and width are?

where are you having issues with that?

yes that is correct!

don't second guess yourself

so the length is 2 2/3 and the width is 3/4

now the easiest way to solve this problem is to convert the fractions into decimals

are you allowed to use a calculator?

okay so then lets try to convert these fractions into whole numbers

do you know how to convert fractions into whole numbers?

okay so worries

so do that we would have to Divide the numerator by the denominator, only if the numerator is a multiple of the denominator.

so for the width, is 4 a multiple of 3?

no it is not

so out only method would be to convert it into a decimal

do you know what 3/4 is in decimal form?

it is .75 because if you have 4 quarters which equal .25 then 3 quarters equal 75

now we move onto the length 2 2/3

now we already have 2 as a whole number and we can convert 2/3 into a decimal

so we basically do 3 /2

3 does not go into 2 so we put a decimal so it is 0.

then we see how many times 3 goes into 20

how many times does 3 go into 20?

no it is 6 times, because 3*6 = 18

so now we have 0.6

and we bring down the reminder

so we have 3/20

and we have a repeating decimal so our answer is

2/3 = 0.66666

so if we add the whole number we have 2.6666

so now we can plug that into the equation

A = L * W

A = 0.75 * 2.6666

Are you with me so far?

do you have any questions?

great now we just multiple 2.66 * 0.75

can you do that and tell me what you get?

AWESOME!

Now we can round that to the closest number

what is that?

do you know what 1.995 to the closest whole is?

GREAT!

so your answer is

0.75 * 2.66 = 2

ANY QUESTIONS?

Do you know the formula for the perimeter of a rectangle?

P = 2( L + W)

so from the information that we already have, can you plug in the numbers for me?

close, try again

and this time for it in fromula form

use the formula that I have provided for you

so can you tell me the formula for the perimeter of a rectangle?

great

so P is the value we are looking for and the rest is the formula

can you now try to plug in the numbers into the formula

starting with P =

GREAT!

now don't forget the parentheses

so try one last time

Awesome!

So now according to the laws of PEMDAS what would be our first step into solving this equation?

where did you get 3.41 from?

yes

so 2.66 + 0.75 = 3.41

now we have P = 2 (3.41)

so we now multiple 3.41 * 2

what do you get when you do that?

great job!

so now we know P = 6.82

and those are your two answers

A = 2

P = 6.82

do you have any questions?

Now suppose that bigger cups are ordered and the machine’s mean amount dispensed is set at μ=12. Assuming we can precisely adjus
Elina [12.6K]

Answer:

σ should be adjusted at 0.5.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Empirical Rule states that, for a normally distributed random variable:

Approximately 68% of the measures are within 1 standard deviation of the mean.

Approximately 95% of the measures are within 2 standard deviations of the mean.

Approximately 99.7% of the measures are within 3 standard deviations of the mean.

In this problem, we have that:

Mean 12.

Assuming we can precisely adjust σ, what should we set σtobe so that the actual amount dispensed is between 11 and 13 ounces, 95% of the time?

13 should be 2 standard deviations above the mean of 12, and 11 should be two standard deviations below the mean.

So 1 should be worth two standard deviations. Then

2\sigma = 1

\sigma = \frac{1}{2}

\sigma = 0.5

σ should be adjusted at 0.5.
