Answer:

A. Approximately 68%

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of pieces of popcorn in a bucket is normally distributed.

Mean = μ = 1610

Standard deviation = б = 10

We know that in normal distribution, approximately 34% of bags will fall with in one standard deviation on one side. On both sides within the range of 1 standard deviation, 34 + 34 = 68 % of bags will fall.

A table of normal distribution about mean is attached for better understanding.

Our range is:

1600 to 1620

1610 - 10 to 1610 + 10

μ ± б

mean ± 1 standard deviation

Our range is within 1 standard deviation. Hence, Approximately 68% of buckets contain between 1600 and 1620 pieces of popcorn.

7 . Sampling distribution of the difference between two means A statistician is interested in the effectiveness of a weight-loss
UkoKoshka [18]

Answer:

0.229

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the difference between the two sample means follows anormal distribution with a mean of11.00 and standard deviation equal to1.4387

A statistician is interested in the effectiveness of a weight-loss supplement. She randomly selects two independent samples. Individuals in the first sample of size n1 = 24 take the weight-loss supplement. Individuals in the second sample of size n2 = 21 take a placebo. Individuals in both samples follow identical exercise and diet programs. At the end of the study, the statistician measures the weight loss (in percent) of each participant.

We find that mean difference actual = 13-2 = 11

Probability that difference >12 =P(Z>\frac{12-11}{1.3487} \\)

=P(Z>0.742)=.0.229

What solid 3D object is produced by rotating the triangle about line m?
elena55 [62]

Answer: A cone with height 3 and radius 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, searching I found the image for the question, attached down below.

By rotating the triangle about line m, a cone with height 3 and radius 1 is produced.

Solid 3d objects are produced by rotating a 2d figure around a straight line that lies in the same place.

in our case, if we rotate the triangle around the line, the vertices in touch with the line m remains stationary, while the  remaining vertex follows the path of a circle, creating a cone.

Can someone please help me Please I'm desperate
Yuri [45]

Answer:

James is 37, Rob is 44, and Kate is 35

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up an equation where x is James' age:

Rob's age can be represented by x + 7, since he is 7 years older than James

Kate's age can be represented by x - 2, since she is 2 years younger than James

Add these together in the equation and set it equal to 116:

(x + 7) + (x - 2) + (x) = 116

Add like terms and solve for x:

(x + 7) + (x - 2) + (x) = 116

3x + 5 = 116

3x = 111

x = 37

So, James is 37.

Find Rob's age by adding 7 to this:

37 + 7

= 44

Find Kate's age by subtracting 2:

37 - 2

= 35

So, James is 37, Rob is 44, and Kate is 35
