The meat department of a local supermarket packages ground beef using meat trays of two sizes: 1 designed to hold 1 lb of meet a

nd other hold 3lbs.A random sample of 35 packages in small meat trays produced weight with an average of 1.01 lbs and standard deviation
of 0.18 lbs.

Answer:

c) 0.932

99% confidence interval for average weights of all packages sold in small meat trays.

(0.932 ,1.071)

Step-by-step explanation:

Explanation:-

Given random sample of 35 packages in small meat trays produced weight with an average of 1.01 lbs. and standard deviation  of 0.18 lbs.

size of the sample 'n' = 35

mean of the sample x⁻= 1.01lbs

standard deviation of the sample 'S' = 0.18lbs

<u>The 99% confidence intervals are given by</u>

(x^{-} - t_{\alpha } \frac{S}{\sqrt{n} } , x^{-} +t_{\alpha } \frac{S}{\sqrt{n} } )

The degrees of freedom γ=n-1 =35-1=34

tₐ =  2.0322

99% confidence interval for average weights of all packages sold in small meat trays

(1.01 - 2.0322 \frac{0.18}{\sqrt{35} } , 1.01+2.0322 \frac{0.18}{\sqrt{35} } )

( 1.01 - 0.06183 , 1.01+0.06183)

(0.932 ,1.071)

<u>Final answer</u>:-

<u>99% confidence interval for average weights of all packages sold in small meat trays.</u>

<u>(0.932 ,1.071)</u>

Can someone help me how to solve this?
Assoli18 [71]

Answer:

x > -5  in the answer


Step-by-step explanation:

(5 - 3x) / 4 < 5

multiplying both sides by 4:-

5 - 3x < 20

-3x < 15

x > 15/-3

x > -5  (Note the inequality sign is flipped because we are dividing by a negative number)

Consider this right triangle with given measures what is the unknown length
DIA [1.3K]

Answer:

b = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Using Pythagoras' identity in the right triangle.

The square on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares on the other 2 sides, that is

b² + 12² = 15²

b² + 144 = 225 ( subtract 144 from both sides )

b² = 81 ( take the square root of both sides )

b = \sqrt{81} = 9

1) The caterpillar was already at 4.5 feet so 4.5 will be added. If it crawls upwards 38 of an inch every minute and the amount of minutes is not specified, this will be represented as 38x. That means the answer is C. f(x) = 38x + 4.5

2) Substitute the known values into the equation. There are 7 people at $8.25 a person, which is a total of $57.75 <u>I used 7 because he invites 6 friends, plus himself. </u>He only has $50 on his gift card, so he won't have enough to cover the cost. The answer is A.

3) They start out with 40lbs and recieve 120 more. They have 160lbs in total. If they sell 8lbs a day for 5 days, thats 8*5 or 40lbs total. 160 - 40 = 120lbs left after 5 days. I'd say the answers are A, B, and D.

4) I think the answer would be C because 1,500 is used to find the number of grams of isotope present after t years. The number of grams can't be 1,500. I hope that makes sense because I'm not sure how to explain it.

5) The growth factor is 2 (2x, x being the number of hours). Multiply by 15 because the lab has 15 of them. The answer is B. f(x) = 15 * 2x

I hope this helps you! I'm sorry if I got any of them wrong!
