Answer:

23 cupcakes

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume is the key to this question;

Calculate the volume of the cupcake;

3 × 3 × 3 = 27 inches^3

Then the volume of the box;

15 × 7 × 6 = 630 inches^3

Then divide the volume of the box by the volume of the cupcake to see how many can fit in;

630 ÷ 27 = 23.3333

;Hence you can fit... 23 cupcakes

Major league baseball salaries averaged $1.5 million with a standard deviation of $0.8 million in 1994. suppose a sample of 100
seropon [69]

Answer: The probability that the avg. salary of the 100 players exceeded $1 million is approximately 1.

Explanation:

Step 1: Estimate the standard error. Standard error can be calcualted by dividing the standard deviation by the square root of the sample size:

SE=\frac{0.8}{\sqrt{100}}=\frac{0.8}{10} = 0.08

So, Standard Error is 0.08 million or $80,000.

Step 2: Next, estimate the mean is how many standard errors below the population mean $1 million.

\frac{1 - 1.5}{0.08}

=-6.250

-6.250 means that $1 million is siz standard errors away from the mean. Since, the value is too far from the bell-shaped normal distribution curve that nearly 100% of the values are greater than it.

Therefore, we can say that because 100% values are greater than it, probability that the avg. salary of the 100 players exceeded $1 million is approximately 1.

The brand name of Mrs. Fields (cookies) has a 90% recognition rate. If Mrs. fields herself wants to verify that rate by beginnin
Schach [20]

Answer:

0.3874 = 38.74% probability that exactly 9 of the 10 consumers recognize her brand name.

0.6126 = 61.26% probability that the number who recognize her brand name is not nine.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each consumer, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they recognize the name, or they do not. The probability of a customer recognizing the name is independent of anu other customer. This means that the binomial probability distribution is used to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

In which C_{n,x} is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}

And p is the probability of X happening.

The brand name of Mrs. Fields (cookies) has a 90% recognition rate.

This means that p = 0.9.

Sample of 10

This means that n = 10

Find the probability that exactly 9 of the 10 consumers recognize her brand name.

This is P(X = 9). So

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

P(X = 9) = C_{10,9}.(0.9)^{9}.(0.1)^{1} = 0.3874

0.3874 = 38.74% probability that exactly 9 of the 10 consumers recognize her brand name.

Also, find the probability that the number who recognize her brand name is not nine.

1(100%) subtracted by those who recognize. So

1 - 0.3874 = 0.6126

0.6126 = 61.26% probability that the number who recognize her brand name is not nine.
