Answer:

P=0.954 or 95.4%

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the formula for the standardized normal distribution to find Z:

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

Where μ is the mean (μ=20) and σ is the standard deviation (σ=2.6).  

Z_{1} =\frac{14.8-20}{2.6}=-2.0

Z_{1} =\frac{25.2-20}{2.6}=2.0

In the table of the normal distribution, we can look for positive values z, and these values are going to represent the area under the curve between z=0 and the values searched. the negatives values are found by symmetry (with the corresponding positive value but remember this area is under the left side of the curve).  To find a value in the table, find the units in the first column and the follow over the same row till you find the decimals required.

P_1=0.4772

P_2=0.4772

P_1 represents the probability of length being between 14.8 and 20 (the mean) and P_2 represents the probability of length being between 20 and 25.2, The requested probability is the sum of these two.

P=P_1+P_2=0.954

A bag contains four red marbles, two green ones, one lavender one, three yellows, and one orange marble. HINT (See Example 7.] H
Murljashka [212]

Answer:  35

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : A bag contains four red marbles, two green ones, one lavender one, three yellows, and one orange marble.

Total = 4+2+1+3+1=11

To find sets of four marbles include none of the red ones, we need to exclude red marbles when we count the total number of marbles.

Then, the total marbles(exclude red) =11-4=7

Now, the combination of 7 marbles taking 4 at a time is given by :-

^7C_4=\dfrac{7!}{4!(7-4)!}=\dfrac{7\times6\times5\times4!}{4!3!}=35

Hence, the number of sets of four marbles include none of the red ones = 35

Jason's two test scores in English are 87 and 91. What must he score on the third test to get an average test score of 92 or bet
irga5000 [103]

You first find the average of the first two test scores. When you find the average, you add the two numbers together and then divide by two which gives you 89. You then plug in different scores above the number 89 and find the average of those (89 and x) to see which gives you an average of 92. It’s mostly a guess and check type of problem.
