Approximately 95% of bags contain between 65 and 85 potato chips.

<u>Step-by-step explanation</u>:

step 1 :

Given,

The mean, M = 75

Standard deviation, SD = 5

step 2 :

From Normal distribution,

The left side of mean is 32% = M-SD, 16% = M-2SD and 2% = M-3SD

The right side of mean is 32% = M+SD, 16% = M+2SD and 2% = M+3SD

step 3 :

Calculate for left side: M-SD = 75-5 = 70 and M-2SD = 75-10 = 65

Calculate for right side: M+SD = 75+5 = 80 and M+2SD = 75+10 = 85

step 4 :

Calculate the percentage between 65 and 85:

(M-SD) + (M-2SD) + (M+SD) + (M+2SD) = 32% + 16% + 32% + 16%

                                                               = 96 % (which is approximately 95 %)

Licemer1 [7]

Answer:

\large\boxed{x=\dfrac{4}{3}=1\dfrac{1}{3}}

Step-by-step explanation:

x-\dfrac{2}{3}+\dfrac{1}{6}=\dfrac{5}{6}\qquad\text{multiply both sides by 6}\\\\6x-6\!\!\!\!\diagup^2\cdot\left(\dfrac{2}{3\!\!\!\!\diagup_1}\right)+6\!\!\!\!\diagup^1\cdot\left(\dfrac{1}{6\!\!\!\!\diagup_1}\right)=6\!\!\!\!\diagup^1\cdot\left(\dfrac{5}{6\!\!\!\!\diagup_1}\right)\\\\6x-(2)(2)+1=5\\\\6x-4+1=5\\\\6x-3=5\qquad\text{add 3 to both sides}\\\\6x=8\qquad\text{divide both sides by 6}\\\\x=\dfrac{8}{6}\\\\x=\dfrac{8:2}{6:2}\\\\x=\dfrac{4}{3}
