Answer: a) (315,345) b) 99.7%, c) 0.14%, d) 97.36%

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Mean = 330 grams

Standard deviation = 15 grams

(a) About 68​% of organs will be between what​ weights? ​

We will use 68-95-99.7 rule, it is empirical.

as we know that

P(\mu-\sigma\leq X\leq \mu +\sigma)\approx 0.6827

So,

\mu -\sigma=330-15=315\\\\\mu+\sigma=330+15=345

So,the 68% of the data falls within three standard deviation or will be between (315 grams and 345 grams)

(b) What percentage of organs weighs between 285 grams and 375 ​grams?

\mu+3\sigma=330+3\times 15=330+45=375\\\\\mu-3\sigma=330-3\times 15=330-45=285

so, 99.7 % of organs weighs between 285 grams and 315 grams, because the these two values are within one standard deviation of the mean.

(c) What percentage of organs weighs less than 285 grams or more than 375 ​grams? ​

Since it is 3 standard deviation below the mean and 3 standard deviations above the mean.

so, it becomes

1-0.9973=0.0027\\\\\dfrac{0.0027}{2}=0.00135\\\\So,0.00135\times 100=0.135\%=0.14\%

Since 285 grams is 3 standard deviation below the mean(=330 grams) and 375 grams is 3 standard deviation above the mean(=330 grams).

So 0.14% data is lies below the 285 grams and 0.14% data is lies above the 375 grams.

(d) What percentage of organs weighs between 300 grams and 375 ​grams?

\mu-2\sigma=330-2\times 15=330-30=300\\\\\mu+3\sigma=330+3\times 15=330+45=375

So, 300 grams is 2 standard deviation below the mean i.e. 330 grams and 375 grams is 3 standard deviation above the mean i.e. 330 grams.

so, percentage of organs weighs would be

100-2.5-0.14=97.36\%

Hence, a) (315,345) b) 99.7%, c) 0.14%, d) 97.36%.

What is the slope of a line that is perpendicular to a line wise equation is 5y=10+2x
PIT_PIT [208]
First solve the equation by dividing 5 on both sides...

Y = 5\2x + 2

Now we want perpendicular and the line to flip across the axis so the answer is....

Y = -2\5 + 2

For a group of 100 people, compute(a) the expected number of days of the year that are birthdays of exactly 3 people.(b) the exp
Scilla [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Leaving leap years, a year contains 365 days.

For a group of 100 people, each person is independent of the other and probability of any day being his birthday has a chance of

\frac{1}{365}

a) Probability that  exactly 3 people have same birthday = \frac{1}{365^3}

Each day is independent of the other

And hence no of days having exactly 3 persons birthday out of 100 persons is binomial with n = 365 and p = \frac{1}{365^3}

Expected value of days = np = \frac{1}{365^2}

b) Distinct birthdays is binomail with p =1/365 and n = 365

Hence

expected value = np =1

What is x equal to ? Link down below.
scZoUnD [109]

Answer:

50

Step-by-step explanation:

Because of supplementary angles that line has to equal to 180

180-75 = 105

so 105 = (2x + 5)

you can subtract 5 from each side and get

100 = (2x)

then divide each side by 2 and you get

x = 50

you can check it by doing (2 x 50 + 5)

2 x 50 = 100 + 5 = 105 + 75 = 180
