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 .

5x + 3(2x -1) = 3x -14 solve it
Umnica [9.8K]

Answer:

x=-11/8

Step-by-step explanation:

First use the Distributive property on [3(2x-1)]:

5x+6x-3=3x-14

Now combine alike terms:

11x-3=3x-14

Now add three to both sides:

11x=3x-11

Now subtract 3x from both sides:

8x=-11

Now divide both sides by 8:

x=-11/8

This fraction cannot be simplified meaning your final answer SHOULD be -11/8
