Answer:

Height of the 12 cases will be = $2\frac{2}{5}$ inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

Thickness of each DVD storage case = $\frac{1}{5}$ inches

Let number of DVD storage cases sold = x

Therefore, the height of cases sold will be represented by the expression $\frac{x}{5}$

If the number of cases sold x = 12

So the height of the cases sold will be = $\frac{12}{5}$ inches

= $2\frac{2}{5}$ inches

Therefore, the answer is $2\frac{2}{5}$ inches.

2 2/5 inches thick.

1/5 x 12 = 12/5 then make that into a mixed number.

Answer:

1

The correct option is C

2

The correct option is C

3

The correct option is A

4

The correct option is B

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

The population mean is $\mu = 100$

The standard deviation is $\sigma = 15$

The sample size is $n = 36$

The sample mean is $\= x = 105.1$

Generally

The null hypothesis is $H_o: \mu = 100 \ hours$

The alternative hypothesis is $H_a : \mu \ne 100\ hours$

Given that the null hypothesis is true then the distribution of sample means $\mu_{\= x }$ , from a sample size of 36 is mathematically represented as

$\mu_{\= x } = \mu$

=> $\mu_{\= x } = 100$

According to the Central Limit Theorem the test stated in the question is approximately normally distributed if the sample size is sufficiently large $(n > 30 )$ so given that the sample size is large n = 36

Then the test is normally distributed and hence the standard deviation is 15

Generally the standard error of mean is mathematically represented as

$\sigma_{\= x } = \frac{ \sigma }{\sqrt{n} }$

=> $\sigma_{\= x } = \frac{15}{\sqrt{36} }$

=> $\sigma_{\= x } = 2.5$

Generally the approximate probability of observing a sample mean of 105.1 or more is mathematically represented as

$P( \= X \ge 105.1 ) =1 - P(\= X < 105.1) = 1- P(\frac{\= X - \mu }{\sigma_{\= x }}$

=> $P( \= X \ge 105.1 ) =1 - P(\= X < 105.1) = 1- P(Z$

From the z-table (reference calculator dot net )

$P(Z$

So

$P( \= X \ge 105.1 )= 1 - P(\= X < 105.1) = 1- 0.97932$

$P( \= X \ge 105.1 ) =0.02$
