The first thing I would do is divide the rate by 1 1/4, to get the amount per hour which gives us this:
20 pages per 1 hour
Now, that we know he reads 20 pages per hour, we just divide 230 by 20 to find the amount of hours. Our answer comes out to 11.5 hours.
To solve this problem, we make use of the z statistic.
What we have to do here is to find for the z score using the given data and
from the standard probability tables for z, we locate the proportion of the
fish longer than 12 inches.
The formula for calculating the z score is:
z = (x – μ) / σ
where,
x = the sample value = 12 inches
μ = the sample mean = 11 inches
σ = 2 inches
so,
z = (12 – 11) / 2
z = 1 / 2
z = 0.5
Since we are looking for the values greater than 12, so
this is a right tailed test. Using the tables, the value of p at this value of
z is:
p (z = 0.5) = 0.3085
Therefore there is a 30.85% probability that the fish is
longer than 12 inches.
If you do 435 divided by 11, your answer would be the amount which is not a whole number, it’s 39.5454 and goes on.
but since you said NEGATIVE 435, 11 can’t go into that negative so it’ll be zero.
1000 mL = 1 L
0.85 L = (0.85 L)*(1000 mL/1 L) = (0.85*1000) mL = 850 mL
So, 0.85 liters is equivalent to 850 milliliters
