Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the Acme Company manufactures widgets, which have a mean of 60 ounces and a standard deviation of 7 ounces

We know that 95% of the area lie between -2 and 2 std deviations from the mean.

i.e. Probability for lying in the middle of 95%

Z score (60+7(-2), 60+7(2))\\=(46, 74)

Between 46 and 74 oz.

b) Between 12 and 57

convert into Z score

(\frac{12-60}{7}

P(-6.86<z<-0.43)

=0.5-0.1664=0.3336

c) X<30 gives Z<-4.83

i.e. P(X<30) =0.00

A bouncing ball reaches a height of 54 inches at its first peak, 36 inches at its second peak, and 24 inches at its third peak.
steposvetlana [31]
54, 36, 24 are the 1st 3 element of a geometric progression with 2/3 as a common ratio: PROOF:
the 1st term is 54, (a₁= 54) the 2nd term a₂ = 24, then
(a₂ = a₁.r) or 36 = 54.r → r= 36/54 = 2/3. Same logique for the 3rd term. 
So 2/3 is common ratio. We know that :U(n) = a.(r)ⁿ⁻¹. Then if a =54 and r = x (given by the problem), then f(x) = 54.xⁿ⁻¹
n, being the rank of any element of this geometric progression

liberstina [14]

Answer:

28

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the score is the sum of all cards a player has, the way to make it smallest is to use the smallest cards.  So the 7 smallest cards are 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7.  So you want to add these up.  This gets 28
