Problem 1

mu = 32 is the population mean, sigma = 0.6 is the population standard deviation

Convert the raw score x = 31 into its z score

z = (x-mu)/sigma

z = (31-32)/0.6

z = -1.67 approximately

Finding P(X \le 31) is approximately the same as finding P(Z \le -1.67)

To find this value, we use a calculator or a table. I'll use a table. Specifically it is called a Z table. They are found in the back of your stats textbook. If you don't have a textbook with you, then they can be found freely online by searching out "z table".

Check out the attached image below. In that image I have marked the row that starts with -1.6 and the column that has 0.07 at the top. These two values combine to -1.67, with the value 0.0475 at the intersection of this row and column.

This means, P(Z \le -1.67) \approx 0.0475 and that P(X \le 31) \approx 0.0475

Interpretation: The probability of getting a bag of weight 31 ounces or less is approximately 0.0475 (which is a 4.75% chance roughly).

Another interpretation: Roughly 4.75% of all the bags have a weight of 31 ounces or less.

===========================================================

Problem 2

Earlier we found that x = 31 has a z score of roughly z = -1.67

Convert x = 33 to its corresponding z score and you should find that it is roughly z = 1.67

Use the Z table to find that

P(Z \le 1.67) \approx 0.9525

therefore,

P(X \le 33) \approx 0.9525

and,

P(A \le X \le B) = P(X \le B) - P(X \le A)\\\\P(31 \le X \le 33) = P(X \le 33) - P(X \le 31)\\\\P(31 \le X \le 33) \approx 0.9525 - 0.0475\\\\P(31 \le X \le 33) \approx 0.905

Therefore, the percent of all bags with weights between 31 and 33 ounces is roughly 90.5%

Find the constant of proportionality k. Then write an equation for the relationship between x and y
ExtremeBDS [4]

Question:

Find the constant of proportionality k. Then write an equation for the relationship between x and y

\begin{array}{ccccc}x & {2} & {4} & {6} & {8} \ \\ y & {10} & {20} & {30} & {40} \ \ \end{array}

Answer:

(a) k = 5

(b) y = 5x

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

\begin{array}{ccccc}x & {2} & {4} & {6} & {8} \ \\ y & {10} & {20} & {30} & {40} \ \ \end{array}

Solving (a): The constant of proportionality:

Pick any two corresponding x and y values

(x_1,y_1) = (2,10)

(x_2,y_2) = (6,30)

The constant of proportionality k is:

k = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}

k = \frac{30-10}{6-2}

k = \frac{20}{4}

k = 5

Solving (b): The equation

In (a), we have:

(x_1,y_1) = (2,10)

k can also be expressed as:

k = \frac{y- y_1}{x- x_1}

Substitute values for x1, y1 and k

5 = \frac{y- 10}{x- 2}

Cross multiply:

y - 10 = 5(x - 2)

Open bracket

y - 10 = 5x - 10

Add 10 to both sides

y - 10 +10= 5x - 10+10

y = 5x

P=2l+2w. solve for w. show all steps. please
aliina [53]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to get w on one side by itself.

Start out by subtracting 2l from both sides.

p−2l=2w.

Now since w is being multiplied by 2 we need to divided both sides (all terms) by 2.

w=p2−I

Approximately 0.8 of middle school students have cell phones. Which of the following fractions describes how many middle school
lana [24]

Answer: E. 4/5

Step-by-step explanation: You have to put the decimal (0.8) over its place value. So in this case 0.8 turns into 8/10. Then you must simplify 8/10, by dividing the numerator (8) and the denominator (10) by the greatest common factor (2). Which gives you the answer 4/5.
