If she has half a pound of sunflower seeds and wants to split it into eight equal packets, each packet would be 1/16 of a pound.  1/16 of a pound is 1 ounce.

Therefore, each packet of seeds would weigh 1 ounce (1 oz.)

The prices of all college textbooks follow a bell-shaped distribution with a mean of $113 and a standard deviation of $12. Using
Soloha48 [4]

Step-by-step explanation:

In statistics, the empirical rule states that for a normally distributed random variable,

  • 68.27% of the data lies within one standard deviation of the mean.

  • 95.45% of the data lies within two standard deviations of the mean.

  • 99.73% of the data lies within three standard deviations of the mean.

In mathematical notation, as shown in the figure below (for a standard normal distribution), the empirical rule is described as

                             \Phi(\mu \ - \ \sigma \ \leq X \ \leq \mu \ + \ \sigma) \ = \ 0.6827 \qquad (4 \ \text{s.f.}) \\ \\ \\ \Phi(\mu \ - \ 2\sigma \ \leq X \ \leq \mu \ + \ 2\sigma) \ = \ 0.9545 \qquad (4 \ \text{s.f.}) \\ \\ \\ \Phi}(\mu \ - \ 3\sigma \ \leq X \ \leq \mu \ + \ 3\sigma) \ = \ 0.9973 \qquad (4 \ \text{s.f.})

where the symbol \Phi (the uppercase greek alphabet phi) is the cumulative density function of the normal distribution, \mu is the mean and \sigma is the standard deviation of the normal distribution defined as N(\mu, \ \sigma).

According to the empirical rule stated above, the interval that contains the prices of 99.7% of college textbooks for a normal distribution N(113, \ 12),

                \Phi(113 \ - \ 3 \ \times \ 12 \ \leq \ X \ \leq \ 113 \ + \ 3 \ \times \ 12) \ = \ 0.9973 \\ \\ \\ \-\hspace{1.75cm} \Phi(113 \ - \ 36 \ \leq \ X \ \leq \ 113 \ + \ 36) \ = \ 0.9973 \\ \\ \\ \-\hspace{3.95cm} \Phi(77 \ \leq \ X \ \leq \ 149) \ = \ 0.9973

Therefore, the price of 99.7% of college textbooks falls inclusively between $77 and $149.

The ratio of boys to girls in the entire 6th grade is 3 to 2. Given this ratio, which two class compositions are possible?
gtnhenbr [62]

Answer:

<em>There's an infinite number of possible answers because there might be any multiplication of 3 for boys and any multiplication of 2 for girls. So, for example:</em>

<em>There might be 3 boys and 2 girls.</em>

<em>There might be 6 boys and 4 girls.</em>

<em>There might be 9 boys and 6 girls.</em>

<em>There might be 12 boys and 8 girls.</em>

<em>etc...</em>

<em>In each case the ratio stays the same - 3 : 2.</em>

<em>Of course there probably can't be more than a few dozens of people in one class, but theoretically we can raise the numbers up to infinite.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:<em>hope this help.</em>
