3. The weights of apples in a shipment from Al's Orchards are normally distributed with a mean of 142 grams and a standard devia

tion of 9 grams. The weights of apples in a shipment from Zippy's Orchards are normally distributed with a mean of 165 grams and a standard deviation of 13 grams.
A rotten apple has a mean of 156 grams. Was it more likely to come from Al's or from Zippy's? Use z-scores to explain. Show your work

The z scores corresponding to the mean weight of a rotten apple relative to the apples from either orchard are, respectively,

\dfrac{142-156}9\approx-1.56

\dfrac{165-156}{13}\approx0.69

The mean for the standard normal distribution is 0, which means that z scores closer to 0 represent data points that are more likely to occur. Therefore it's reasonable to believe that rotten apples occur more often in shipments from Zippy's.

A survey handed out to individuals at a major shopping mall in a small Florida city in July asked the following: Gender Age Ethn
AysviL [449]

Answer and Explanation:

Gender data is categorical as it can be sorted into two categories - males and females - and does not involve any numerical values.

Age data is ratio as each person's age is a numerical value and it has a natural zero as point of origin. Moreover, the numerical values cannot be negative.

Ethnicity data is categorical as the various ethnicities to which those surveyed can belong are separate categories. There are no numerical values involved.

Length of residency data is ratio as the length duration is measured in number of years, thus having a numerical value. There is also a natural zero as point of origin and no possible negative values.

Overall satisfaction with city services data is ordinal as it is based on a ranking from poor to excellent.

Quality of schools data is also ordinal as it involves a ranking or definite ordering of data - from poor to excellent.
