Since each batch takes
2 1/2 cups and he's making 3 1/2 batches,
You multiply the two numbers. First change them into improper fractions.
2 1/2 = 5/2
3 1/2 = 7/2
5/2 * 7/2 = 35/4
Simplify 8 3/4 cups flour

ELEN [110]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a popcorn company builds a machine to fill 1 kg bags of popcorn. They test the first hundred bags filled and find that the bags have an average weight of 1,040 grams with a standard deviation of 25 grams.

i.e. Sample mean = 1040 and

Sample std dev s = 25 gm

Sample size n = 100

Hence by central limit theorem we have the sample mean follows a normal distribution with mean =1040 and std dev = s = 25 gm

$\bar X = N(1040,25)$
