Is the probability of contamination more than twice the mean of 14.4 unusual, or can it be considered typical variation? explain

More than the twice of the mean is 28.8 and I don't understand the meaning of typical. Seeing this porblem statement said that 3 brands had been contaminated more than twice the average, We would assume it's typical, then again it depends on what you define typical as. I think the mean is like "find the probability that a tested bar has at least twice as many insect fragments as the mean, and see if that number is really really small". 
The probability is 0.000463 and this is really small, but I really don't understand what is the meaning of typical in this problem.

A person wants to create a vegetable garden and keeps the rabbits out by enclosing it with 100 feet of fencing. The area of the
alekssr [168]

Answer:

The garden can not have area of 700ft^2

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given equation for area as

A(w)=w\times (50-w)

where

w is the width (in feet) of the garden

now, we are given area =700 ft^2

so, we can set area =700

and then we can solve for w

w\times (50-w)=700

50w-w^2=700

-w^2+50w-700=0

now, we can use quadratic formula

ax^2+bx+c=0

w=\frac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}

we can compare and find a,b, and c

a=-1 , b=50 , c=-700

now, we can plug values

w=\frac{-50\pm \sqrt{50^2-4\left(-1\right)\left(-700\right)}}{2\left(-1\right)}

w=25-5\sqrt{3}i,\:w=25+5\sqrt{3}i

We can see that values of w is not real

so, w does not exists when area =700

so, The garden can not have area of 700ft^2

Jessica is a custodian at Oracle Arena. She waxes 20 m² of the floor in = of an hour. Jessica
Wewaii [24]

The complete question is as follows:

Jessica is a custodian at Oracle Arena. She waxes 20 \mathbf{m^{2}} of the floor in \mathbf{\frac{3}{5}} of and hour. At this rate, how many square meters can she wax per hour ?

Answer:

\mathbf{\frac{100}{3}\approx33.33 \ m^{2} \ per \ hour}

Step-by-step explanation:

\textrm{rate}=\frac{\textrm{Area waxed in square meter}}{\textrm{Time taken to wax in hours}}

\textrm{rate}=\frac{20 \ \textrm{m}^{2}}{\frac{3}{5} \ \textrm{hours}}

\textrm{rate}=\frac{20\times5}{3}

\mathbf{rate=\frac{100}{3}\approx33.33 \ m^{2} \ per \ hour}
