Answer:

25%

Step-by-step explanation:

A garden contains 20 different species of plants. Five of these plants are ferns.

Total number of species = 20

In that 20 species , 5 are ferns

WE need to find out how much percentage of 20 is 5

LEts make an equation. x be the percentage

x% of 20 is 5

\frac{x}{100} \cdot 20 = 5

\frac{x}{5}= 5

Now multiply both sides by 5

x= 25

So 25% of 20 species plans is equal to 5 ferns

5 out of 20 plants can be written as 5/20.  

A percentage is just a fraction with the denominator being 100.  
100 / 20 = 5. 
5 X 5 = 25
25/100

25% of the garden is made up of ferns

Items produced by a manufacturing process are supposed to weigh 90 grams. The manufacturing procon
Annette [7]

Using the normal distribution, it is found that 0.26% of the items will either  weigh less than 87 grams or more than  93 grams.

In a <em>normal distribution</em> with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the z-score of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

  • It measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean.  
  • After finding the z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score, which is the percentile of X.

In this problem:

  • The mean is of 90 grams, hence \mu = 90.
  • The standard deviation is of 1 gram, hence \sigma = 1.

We want to find the probability of an item <u>differing more than 3 grams from the mean</u>, hence:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{3}{1}

Z = 3

The probability is P(|Z| > 3), which is 2 multiplied by the p-value of Z = -3.

  • Looking at the z-table, Z = -3 has a p-value of 0.0013.

2 x 0.0013 = 0.0026

0.0026 x 100% = 0.26%

0.26% of the items will either  weigh less than 87 grams or more than  93 grams.

Subtract 6 from both sides, you get 1/3x=-14

Now multiply both sides by there, hence x=-42
