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 .

What is the solution set for this linear-quadratic system of equations?
Lostsunrise [7]
Y - x - 3 = 0
y = x + 3

y = x^2 - x - 12
x + 3 = x^2 - x - 12
x^2 - x - 12 - x - 3 = 0
x^2 - 2x - 15 = 0
(x - 5)(x + 3) = 0

x - 5 = 0     y = x + 3
x = 5          y = 5 + 3
                  y = 8

x + 3 = 0     y = x + 3
x = -3          y = -3 + 3
                   y = 0

so ur solutions are : (5,8) and (-3,0)

Abby did 121 sit ups in 8 minutes estimate the number of sit ups she did in 1 minute
const2013 [10]
You would divide 121 by 8.
121 / 8 =  15.125 So she did about 15 sit ups in a minute. Hope this helps!
