The lengths of lumber a machine cuts are normally distributed with a mean of 106 inches and a standard deviation of 0.3 inch. ​(

a) What is the probability that a randomly selected board cut by the machine has a length greater than 106.11 ​inches? ​(b) A sample of 44 boards is randomly selected. What is the probability that their mean length is greater than 106.11 ​inches? ​(a) The probability is nothing.

Answer:

a) P(X>106.11)=P(\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}\frac{106.11-106}{0.3})=P(z>0.37)

And we can find this probability with the complement rule:

P(z>0.37)=1-P(z

b) z =\frac{106.11- 106}{\frac{0.3}{\sqrt{44}}}=  2.431

And if we use the z score we got:

P(z>2.431) =1-P(z

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X the random variable that represent the lengths of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

X \sim N(106,0.3)  

Where \mu=106 and \sigma=0.3

Part a

We are interested on this probability

P(X>106.11)

And we can use the z score formula given by:

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

And using this formula we got:

P(X>106.11)=P(\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}\frac{106.11-106}{0.3})=P(z>0.37)

And we can find this probability with the complement rule:

P(z>0.37)=1-P(z

Part b

For this case we select a sample of n =44 and the new z score formula is given by:

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}

And if we find the z score we got:

z =\frac{106.11- 106}{\frac{0.3}{\sqrt{44}}}=  2.431

And if we use the z score we got:

P(z>2.431) =1-P(z

alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

A) 360 adults

Step-by-step explanation:

c=quantity of child

a=quantity of adult

9c+12.5a=5220

a+c=440    then c=440-a

substitute for c

9(440-a)+12.5a=5220

3960-9a+12.5a=5220

reduce

3.5a=1260

a=360

you are attempting to guess a 3 digit number and have the following information. there are no 0s the number is even. the sum of
ss7ja [257]

The 3-digit number is 132

<h3>How to determine the 3-digit number?</h3>

The given parameters are:

  • Number of digits = 3
  • Sum of digits = 6
  • No 0s in the number
  • No repeated digit

The first highlight above implies that the number can be any of 100 to 999

The other highlights imply that the no digit can appear repeatedly, the highest digit in the number is 3, and the number must end with 2.

So, we have:

X32

The first digit is the smallest.

1 is smaller than 3 and 2.

So, we have

132

Hence, the 3-digit number is 132

scoundrel [369]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

f(- 1) = - 1 + 4 = 3

f(2) = 2 + 4 = 6

f(12) = 4(12) - 7 = 41

Simplify this expression.<br><br> (1-3k) + (2 + 2.5k)
Crank

(1 - 3k) + (2 + 2.5k)

= 1 - 3k + 2 + 2.5k

= (1 + 2) + ( - 3k + 2.5k)

= 3  + ( - 0.5k)

= 3 - 0.5k
