Answer:
a) Standard deviation: 3 bluberries
b) We assume, to apply this rule, that the distribution of blueberries per muffin has a bell-curve distribution, approximately normal.
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that the number of blueberries in a blueberry muffin baked by EarthHarvest Bakeries can range from 20 to 40 blueberries.
a) If we use the Empirical Rule 68-95-99.7, specifically the last term, we have that:
- 99.7% of the data will fall between 3 standard deviations from the mean.
Then, if we consider the range of 20 to 40 containing 99.7%, we can calculate the standard deviation as:
Answer:
63, 63.4, 63.41
Step-by-step explanation:
Whole number = 63
Nearest tenth = 63.4
Nearest hundredth = 63.41
Answer:
At 5% , $300 was invested
At 15%, $4,700 was invested
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the amount invested at 5% be $x and the amount invested at 15% be $y
x + y = 5000 ••••••(i)
Let’s work with the interest;
5% of x + 15% of y = 720
0.05x + 0.15y = 720 •••••(ii)
From i;
x = 5000-y
Insert this into ii
0.05(5000-y) + 0.15y = 720
= 250 - 0.05y + 0.15y = 720
250 + 0.1y = 720
0.1y = 720-250
0.1y = 470
y = 470/0.1
y = $4700
x = 5000-y
x = 5000-4700 = $300
