8.5 the answer is and replace the areas
I don't have my calculator handy just now. But just looking at that problem, why don't you try +20 and -45 and see if they do the job.
1. Answer: given: an average of 28 pounds
a.
Find z values corresponding to 27 and 31:
z=%2827-28%29%2F2=-1%2F2=-0.5
z=%2831-28%29%2F2=3%2F2=1.5
Find the area between z+=+-0.5 and z=+1.5
Table E gives us an area of 0.9332-0.30=0.6247=> The probability is 62.47%
b.
Find z values corresponding to 30.2
z=%2830.2-28%29%2F2=2.2%2F2=1.1 Find the area to the right of z+=1.1
it gives you an area of 0.1357=> The probability is 13.57%
Answer:
amount of nuts = 2 pounds
amount of dried fruit = 4 pounds
Explanation:
We are given that x is the amount of nuts and y is the amount of dried fruit.
We are also given that:
1- Hunter needs to make 6 pounds of trail mix. This means that:
x + y = 6
This can be rewritten as:
x = 6 - y .........> equation I
2- x costs $4 per pound, y costs $3.5 and Hunter can spend a total of $22. This means that:
4x + 3.5y = 22 ..........> equation II
Substitute with equation I in equation II and solve for y as follows:
4x + 3.5y = 22
4(6-y) + 3.5y = 22
24 - 4y + 3.5y = 22
24-22 = 4y-3.5y
2 = 0.5y
y = 4 pounds
Substitute with y in equation I to get the value of x as follows:
x = 6-y
x = 6-4
x = 2 pounds
Hope this helps :)
