Answer:

D)

Step-by-step explanation:

ASSUMING NORMAL DISTRIBUTION, LESS THAN 10% AT LOWER END

OF 15.34 MEANS     [DENOTING MEAN BY M AND Standard Deviation. BY S]

M±AS=20%....................M-AS=15.34

FOR 20% LEVEL .......A=1.281........FROM TABLES

M-1.281×S=15.34............................1

SIMILARLY

M±BS=40%...................M+BS=16.31

FOR 40% LEVEL .............B=0.841...................FROM TABLES

M+0.841×S=16.31.............................2

EQN.2 - EQN.1

2.122×S=0.97

S=0.457=0.46

M=15.926= 15.93

HENCE, D IS THE ANSWER

that is D. μ = 15.93, σ =.46

Ann is going on vacation. Ann dog food for a pet sitter to feed her dog Maggie while she's away she leaves 24 cans of wet food a
docker41 [41]
1/4x = 24 for cans
Multiply both sides by 4 (the multiplicative inverse of 1/4)
x = 96 days

3/4x = 38 for dry food
Multiply both sides by 4
3x = 152
x = 50.666667

So I would say Ann can be gone 50 days before Maggie runs out of food. I don’t think they would count the 2/3 of a day. She will run out of dry food before canned food.
