Answer:

e. 0.0072

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a bottling company uses a filling machine to fill plastic bottles with cola. And the contents vary according to a Normal distribution with Mean, μ = 298 ml and Standard deviation, σ = 3 ml .

 Let    Z = \frac{Xbar - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } } ~ N(0,1)  where, Xbar = mean contents of six randomly

                                                                     selected bottles

                                                          n = sample size i.e. 6    

So, Probability that the mean contents of six randomly selected bottles is less than 295 ml is given by, P(Xbar < 295)

 P(Xbar < 295) = P( \frac{Xbar - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } } < \frac{295 - 298}{\frac{3}{\sqrt{6} } } ) = P(Z < -2.45) = P(Z > 2.45)

Now, using z% score table we find that P(Z > 2.45) = 0.00715 ≈ 0.0072 .

Therefore, option e is correct .

Let A = {1,2,3,..., 8, 9, 10} B = {4, 7, 10}
Dovator [93]

The answers to the questions are

(i) B - A = Ф / null set

(ii) A - B = {1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 8, 9}

(iii) (A - B) ∩ (B - A) = Ф / null set

(iv)  (A - B) ∪ (B - A) = {1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 8, 9}

A set contains different elements which are mathematical objects of any kind such as numbers, points, spaces, lines e.t.c.

Different types of set are -singleton setsfinite and infinite setsempty or null sets equal sets unequal sets equivalent sets overlapping sets disjoint sets subsets super sets power sets universal sets

According to question,

i ] B - A = 0/null set

ii ] A - B = [ 1,2,3,5,6,8,9 ]

iii ]   (A-B) n (B-A) = 0/ null set

iv ]  (A-B) u ( B-A) = [ 1,2,3,5,6,8,9 ]

Hence, the answers to the questions are

(i) B - A = Ф / null set

(ii) A - B = {1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 8, 9}

(iii) (A - B) ∩ (B - A) = Ф / null set

(iv)  (A - B) ∪ (B - A) = {1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 8, 9}

Find f(-2) if f(x)=4x^2+3x-5
valentina_108 [34]

Answer:

f(-2) = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

To find f(-2), plug in -2 wherever there is an x.

f(x) = 4x² + 3x - 5

f(-2) = 4(-2)² + 3(-2) - 5

f(-2) = 4(4) + 3(-2) - 5

f(-2) = 16 - 6 - 5

f(-2) = 10 - 5

f(-2) = 5
