Consider the population of all 1-gallon cans of dusty rose paint manufactured by a particular paint company. Suppose that a norm

al distribution with mean μ=6
ml and standard deviation σ=0.2 ml is a reasonable model for the distribution of the variable x = amount of red dye in the paint mixture. Use the normal distribution model to calculate the following probabilities. (Round all answers to four decimal places.)

(a) P(x > 6) =

(b) P(x < 6.2)=

(c) P(x ≤ 6.2) =

(d) P(5.8 < x < 6.2) =

(e) P(x > 5.7) =

Answer:

a) 0.5.

b) 0.8413

c) 0.8413

d) 0.6826

e) 0.9332

f) 1

Step-by-step explanation:

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.

In this problem, we have that:

\mu = 6, \sigma = 0.2

(a) P(x > 6) =

This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 6. So

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

Z = \frac{6-6}{0.2}

Z = 0

Z = 0 has a pvalue of 0.5.

1 - 0.5 = 0.5.

(b) P(x < 6.2)=

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 6.2. So

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

Z = \frac{6.2-6}{0.2}

Z = 1

Z = 1 has a pvalue of 0.8413

(c) P(x ≤ 6.2) =

In the normal distribution, the probability of an exact value, for example, P(X = 6.2), is always zero, which means that P(x ≤ 6.2) = P(x < 6.2) = 0.8413.

(d) P(5.8 < x < 6.2) =

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 6.2 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X  5.8.

X = 6.2

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

Z = \frac{6.2-6}{0.2}

Z = 1

Z = 1 has a pvalue of 0.8413

X = 5.8

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

Z = \frac{5.8-6}{0.2}

Z = -1

Z = -1 has a pvalue of 0.1587

0.8413 - 0.1587 = 0.6826

(e) P(x > 5.7) =

This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 5.7.

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

Z = \frac{5.8-6}{0.2}

Z = -1.5

Z = -1.5 has a pvalue of 0.0668

1 - 0.0668 = 0.9332

(f) P(x > 5) =

This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 5.

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

Z = \frac{5-6}{0.2}

Z = -5

Z = -5 has a pvalue of 0.

1 - 0 = 1

PLS HELP! which graph is the function 3x + 2y = 8 with the given domain {-2,0,2,4}??
Romashka [77]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

Domain of the function 3x + 2y = 8 are the possible set of x-values represented as {-2, 0, 2, 4}.

To know which graph represents the above given function, find the range values of the function by plugging in each value of x into the equation, to find y.

For x = -2,

3(-2) + 2y = 8

-6 + 2y = 8

2y = 8 + 6

2y = 14

y = 14/2

y = 7

(-2, 7)

For x = 0,

3(0) + 2y = 8

0 + 2y = 8

2y = 8

y = 8/2

y = 4

(0, 4)

For x = 2,

3(2) + 2y = 8

6 + 2y = 8

2y = 8 - 6

2y = 2

y = 2/2

y = 1

(2, 1)

For x = 4,

3(4) + 2y = 8

12 + 2y = 8

2y = 8 - 12

2y = -4

y = -4/2

y = -2

(4, -2)

The graph which shows the following set of coordinates pairs calculated above, ((-2, 7), (0, 4), (2, 1), (4, -2)), is the graph of the function 3x + 2y = 8.

Thus, the graph in option D the shows the following calculated coordinate pairs. Therefore, graph D is the answer.
