Answer:
μ = 5.068 oz
Step-by-step explanation:
Normal distribution formula to use the table attached
Z = (x - μ)/σ
where μ is mean, σ is standard deviation, Z is on x-axis and x is a desired point.
98% of 6-oz. cups will not overflow means that the area below the curve is equal to 0.49; note that the curve is symmetrical respect zero, so, 98% of the cases relied between the interval (μ - some value) and (μ + some value)].
From table attached, area = 0.49 when Z = 2.33. From data, σ = 0.4 oz and x = 6 oz (maximum capacity of the cup). Isolating x from the formula gives
Z = (x - μ)/σ
2.33 = (6 - μ)/0.4
μ = 6 - 2.33*0.4
μ = 5.068
This means that with a mean of 5 oz and a standard deviation of 0.4 oz, the machine will discharge a maximum of 6 oz in the 98% of the cases.
Answer:
-8.8
Step-by-step explanation:
We begin by simplifying the parenthesis through multiplication. Parenthesis is a structure which signals multiplication happening.
We now begin combining like terms across the equal sign by performing the inverse or doing the opposite. Move first the 8.11 by subtracting it from both sides.
Now, move 4.3v across by subtracting it from both sides.
Finally, we divide both sides by the coefficient of v.
