The weights of bags filled by a machine are normally distributed with a standard deviation of 0.05 kilograms and a mean that can

be set by the operator. At what level should the mean weight be set if it required that only 1% of the bags weigh less than 9.5 kilograms? Round the answer to 2 decimal places.

Answer:

9.62 kg

Explanation:

From a z-score table, P(z<-2.33) ≈ 0.01.  So 9.5 should be 2.33 standard deviations below the mean.

z = (x − μ) / σ

-2.33 = (9.5 − μ) / 0.05

-0.1165 = 9.5 − μ

μ = 9.6165

Rounding to 2 decimal places, the mean should be set to 9.62 kg.

What is also known as watered carbons
faltersainse [42]
The name carbohydrate means "watered carbon" or carbon with attached water molecules. Many carbohydrates have empirical formuli which would imply about equal numbers of carbon and water molecules. For example, the glucose formula C6H12O6 suggests six carbon atoms and six water molecules.

eimsori [14]

Answer:

40 m/s

Explanation:

given,

height of the fall, h = 82 m

time taken to fall, t = 1.3 s

rock velocity, v = ?

acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.8 m/s²

rock is released initial velocity, u = 0 m/s

using equation of motion

v² = u² + 2 a s

v² = 0 + 2 x 9.8 x 82

v² = 1607.2

v = 40 m/s

hence, rock's velocity is equal to 40 m/s
