The weight of people in a small town in missouri is known to be normally distributed with a mean of 154 pounds and a standard de

viation of 29 pounds. on a raft that takes people across the river, a sign states, "maximum capacity 3,460 pounds or 20 persons." what is the probability that a random sample of 20 persons will exceed the weight limit of 3,460 pounds? use table 1. (round "z" value to 2 decimal places, and final answer to 4 decimal places.)

If a random sample of 20 persons weighed 3,460, the sample mean x-bar would be 3460/20 = 173 pounds.
The z-score for 173 pounds is given by:
z=\frac{173-154}{29}=0.655
Referring to a standard normal distribution table, and using z = 0.66, we find:
P(\bar x\ \textless \ 173)=0.7454
Therefore
P(\bar x\ \textgreater \ 173)=1-0.7454=0.2546
The answer is: 0.2546

crater Lake in Oregon in shaped like a circle with a diameter of about 5.5 miles. What is the area of the surface of crater lake
N76 [4]

Answer:

Given the statement: Crater Lake in Oregon in shaped like a circle with a diameter of about 5.5 miles.

Area of circle is given by:

A = \pi \frac{d^2}{4}

where

A represents the area of a circle

d represents the diameter of a circle.

then;

It is given that Surface of Crater lake is shaped like a circle.

Substitute the given values, we have;

Area of a circle = \pi \frac{(5.5)^2}{4}

= 3.14 \times \frac{30.25}{4} =3.14 \times 7.5625 = 23.74625 square miles

therefore, the area of a surface of a crater lake is, 23.74625 square miles.
