Answer:

a) 0.27% probability that the mean is less than 1995 milliliters.

b) 2002.3 milliliters or more will occur only 10% of the time for the sample of 100 bottles.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem, it is important to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem

Normal probability distribution

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the zscore 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 pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Central Limit theorem

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a random variable X, with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , a large sample size can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$

In this problem, we have that:

$\mu = 2000, \sigma = 18$

A) If the manufacturer samples 100 bottles, what is the probability that the mean is less than 1995 milliliters?

So $n = 100, s = \frac{18}{\sqrt{100}} = 1.8$

This probability is the pvalue of Z when X = 1995. So

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

By the Central Limit Theorem

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

$Z = \frac{1995 - 2000}{1.8}$

$Z = -2.78$

$Z = -2.78$ has a pvalue of 0.0027

So 0.27% probability that the mean is less than 1995 milliliters.

B) What mean overfill or more will occur only 10% of the time for the sample of 100 bottles?

This is the value of X when Z has a pvalue of 1-0.1 = 0.9.

So it is X when $Z = 1.28$

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

$1.28 = \frac{X - 2000}{1.8}$

$X - 2000 = 1.8*1.28$

$X = 2002.3$

2002.3 milliliters or more will occur only 10% of the time for the sample of 100 bottles.

A rectangular parking lot has a perimeter of 384 meters. The length of the parking lot is 36 meters less than the width. Find th

-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

The length and width of the parking lot is 78 meters and 114 meters respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

Perimeter of the parking lot = $384\ m$

Solution,

Let the width of the parking lot be x.

Then, according to question length = (x-36).

The perimeter of a rectangle is sum of all the sides of rectangle. Which is given by an expression;

$perimeter=2\times(length+width)$

Now substituting the values, we get;

$384=2\times(x-36+x)\\\frac{384}{2}=(2x-36)\\192=2x-36\\192+36=2x\\2x=228\\x=\frac{228}{2}= 114$

Width = $114\ m$

Length = $x-36=114-36=78\ m$

Hence the length and width of the parking lot is 78 meters and 114 meters respectively.

Calculate the side lengths using the given scale.

coldgirl [10]

Answer:

x = 9 m

y = 1 m

Step-by-step explanation:

6/1 = x/1.5

x = 1.5 × 6

x = 9

6/1 = 6/y

6y = 6

y = 1

Given log4(3) =0.7925 and log4(5) =1.1610, use log properties to find log4(300).

Ede4ka [16]

Answer:

4.1145

Step-by-step explanation:

You can use the following formula to solve this kind of problems,

$log_{a}(b) + log_{a}(c) = log_{a}(bc)$

So, let's start of with log4_(300). Since the question have already gave log4_(3) =0.7925 and log4_(5) =1.1610. It means that you have to split the 300 into the simplest form where almost all of the numbers are 3 and 5.

$log_{4}(300) = log_{4}(4 \times 5 \times 3 \times 5) \\ = log_{4}(4) + log_{4}(5) + log_{4}(3) + log_{4}(5) \\ = 1 + 1.1610 + 0.7925 + 1.1610 \\ = 4.1145$
