Round your answer to four decimal places. σx = (b) The mean fill volume of the machine is 6.16 ounces. What is the probability that the average fill volume of 23 bags is below 5.95 ounces? Round your answer to two decimal places. (c) What should the mean fill volume equal in order that the probability that the average of 23 bags is below 6.0 ounces is 0.001? Round your answer to two decimal places.

Answer:

a) 0.0167

b) 0

c) 5.948

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

Mean, μ = 6.16 ounces

Standard Deviation, σ = 0.08 ounces

We are given that the distribution of fill volumes of bags is a bell shaped distribution that is a normal distribution.

Formula:

z_{score} = \displaystyle\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

a) Standard deviation of 23 bags

\displaystyle\frac{S.D}{\sqrt{23}} = \frac{0.08}{\sqrt{23}} = 0.0167

b) P( fill volume of 23 bags is below 5.95 ounces)

P(x < 5.95)

P( x < 5.96) = P( z < \displaystyle\frac{5.95 - 6.16}{0.0167}) = P(z < -12.57)

= 1 - P(z < 12.57)

Calculation the value from standard normal z table, we have,  

P(x < 5.95) = 1 - 1 = 0

c) P( fill volume of 23 bags is below 6 ounces)  = 0.001

P(x < 6)  = 0.001

P( x < 6) = P( z < \displaystyle\frac{6 - \mu}{0.0167})

Calculation the value from standard normal z table, we have,  

P( z \leq -3.09) = 0.001

\displaystyle\frac{6 - \mu}{0.0167} = -3.09\\\\\mu = 6 + (0.0167\times -3.09) = 5.948

If the mean will be 5.948 then the probability that the average of 23 bags is below 6.1 ounces is 0.001.

Which answer shows a reflection across the y-axis?<br><br> A<br> B<br> C<br> D
padilas [110]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

The y axis is the vertical axis; the one going up and down.

A reflection means that a point is an equal distance away from its reflector as the basis was.

A was a reflection across the line y=x.

B was a reflection across the x axis with a 90 degree rotation.

C was a reflection across the x axis.

That leaves D.

Graph the lines by finding the points of intersection with the axes (intercepts): y=−6x−2
Musya8 [376]

So, we know the slope equation y = mx + b. The b value represents the y intercept, which is the point where the line intersects the y axis. This means that the x value will always be 0. In this equation, the y-intercept is -2, so the y intercept as an ordered pair is : (0, -2). For the x intercept, there are several ways of doing it. For this problem, we can work backwards. There is a slope of 6 units down for every unit right. Starting from our y intercept, we can do the opposite: 6 units up for every unit left. this means our x intercept is -0.3. As an ordered pair, this is (-0.3, 0).
