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.

sergij07 [2.7K]

Answer:

Maximum number of people is 35

Step-by-step explanation:

With a total of $160 you have to pay for the bus and all the people. The bus cost $90 so you subtract that from the 160 because you bought (or rented) the bus. Then you have $70 left to pay for everyone's tickets. If each ticket is $2 then you can buy 35 tickets in total because 70 divided by 2 = 35.

Tell whether the angles are complementary or supplementary. Then find the value of x.
Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

x = 33

Step-by-step explanation:

Two angles are complementary as the sum of two angles is 90

x + 24 + x = 90        {Combine like terms}

  2x + 24 = 90      {Subtract 24 from both sides}

          2x  = 90 - 24

         2x   = 66

          x   = 66/2

         x = 33

Order these numbers from least to greatest.<br> 3.195, 67/20, 3.19, 3 1/3
galina1969 [7]
The numbers from least to greatest are 3.19, 3.195, 3 1/3, and 67/20. This is because 67/20 is equivalent to 3.35 in decimal form, which is greater than all of the other numbers, including 3 1/3, which is 3.3333.
