The volume of a rectangular prism is its length times width times height, or algebraically, 
. You may be used to computing volume with numbers, but remember, a variable is a stand-in for a number. So you can solve this in the same way. Substitute 
into the formula for volume. You get 
, and you multiply these factors together. As you would with ordinary fractions, multiply the numerators and denominators across. You get 
. It seems that the book wants you to simplify by bringing the 6 up to the denominator. Recall the rule 
, if n is non-negative. The opposite applies so that 
. For your final answer, you write 
. This corresponds to answer choice B.
Answer:
Probability that a sample mean is 12 or larger for a sample from the horse population is 0.0262.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that a veterinary researcher takes a random sample of 60 horses presenting with colic. The average age of the random sample of horses with colic is 12 years. The average age of all horses seen at the veterinary clinic was determined to be 10 years. The researcher also determined that the standard deviation of all horses coming to the veterinary clinic is 8 years.
So, firstly according to Central limit theorem the z score probability distribution for sample means is given by;
Z = ~ N(0,1)
where, = average age of the random sample of horses with colic = 12 yrs
= average age of all horses seen at the veterinary clinic = 10 yrs
= standard deviation of all horses coming to the veterinary clinic = 8 yrs
n = sample of horses = 60
So, probability that a sample mean is 12 or larger for a sample from the horse population is given by = P(
12)
P(
12) = P(
) = P(Z
1.94) = 1 - P(Z < 1.94)
= 1 - 0.97381 = 0.0262
Therefore, probability that a sample mean is 12 or larger for a sample from the horse population is 0.0262.
