The length spans from 1 to 9.
9-1= 8 <=== length
The height spans from 4 to 7.
7-4=3 <=== height

Area of a rectangle is equal to length times width.
8*3=24
Final answer: C

He completed 2 and 4/5 rows of grapes each hour he worked after completing 140 rows of grapes how many hours had he worked?

algol [13]

Step-by-step explanation:

Divide 140 by $2\frac{4}{5}$ to represent the amount of hours he worked.

To make dividing easier, $2\frac{4}{5}$ can also represent 2.8 as a decimal.

$\frac{140}{2.8} =50$

He has worked 50 hours after completing 140 rows of grapes.

A statistician calculates that 8% of Americans own a Rolls Royce. If the statistician is right, what is the probability that the

hichkok12 [17]

Answer:

0.007 = 0.7% probability that the proportion of Rolls Royce owners in a sample of 595 Americans would differ from the population proportion by more than 3%

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.

Normal Probability Distribution:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the z-score of a measure X is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem establishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$ .

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

For a proportion p in a sample of size n, the sampling distribution of the sample proportion will be approximately normal with mean $\mu = p$ and standard deviation $s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}$

A statistician calculates that 8% of Americans own a Rolls Royce.

This means that $p = 0.08$

Sample of 595:

This means that $n = 595$

Mean and standard deviation:

$\mu = p = 0.08$

$s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}} = \sqrt{\frac{0.08*0.92}{595}} = 0.0111$

What is the probability that the proportion of Rolls Royce owners in a sample of 595 Americans would differ from the population proportion by more than 3%?

Proportion above 8% + 3% = 11% or below 8% - 3% = 5%. Since the normal distribution is symmetric, these probabilities are equal, and so we find one of them and multiply by 2.

Probability the proportion is less than 5%:

P-value of Z when X = 0.05. So

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

By the Central Limit Theorem

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}$

$Z = \frac{0.05 - 0.08}{0.0111}$

$Z = -2.7$

$Z = -2.7$ has a p-value of 0.0035

2*0.0035 = 0.0070

0.007 = 0.7% probability that the proportion of Rolls Royce owners in a sample of 595 Americans would differ from the population proportion by more than 3%

Probabilities are used to determine the chances of events

The probability that Jill selects a wooden pencil and then a mechanical pencil is 8%

<h3>How to calculate the probability</h3>

Represent the events as follows:

A represents mechanical pencil
B represents wooden pencil
C represents colored pencil

So, we have

P(A) = 20%

P(B) = 40%

P(C) = 30%

The probability that Jill selects a wooden pencil and then a mechanical pencil is then calculated as:

P(B n A) = P(B) * P(A)

This gives

P(B n A) = 40% * 20%

Evaluate the product

P(B n A) = 8%

Hence, the probability that Jill selects a wooden pencil and then a mechanical pencil is 8%
