Consider a value to be significantly low if its z score less than or equal to minus−2 or consider a value to be significantly hi

gh if its z score is greater than or equal to 2. A data set lists weights​ (grams) of a type of coin. Those weights have a mean of 5.752415.75241 g and a standard deviation of 0.062810.06281 g. Identify the weights that are significantly low or significantly high.

Answer:

If the weight is higher than 5.8886 gr would be considered significantly high

If the weight is lower than 5.6121 gr would be considered significantly low

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean".  

Solution to the problem

Let X the random variable that represent the weights of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

X \sim N(5.75241,0.06281)  

Where \mu=5.75241 and \sigma=0.06281

And the best way to solve this problem is using the normal standard distribution and the z score given by:

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

For the case when z =-2 we can do this:

-2 = \frac{X-5.75241}{0.06281}

And if we solve for X we got:

X = 5.75241 -2*0.06281 =5.6121

And for the other case when Z=2 we have:

2 = \frac{X-5.75241}{0.06281}

And if we solve for X we got:

X = 5.75241 +2*0.06281 =5.8886

If the weight is higher than 5.8886 gr would be considered significantly high

If the weight is lower than 5.6121 gr would be considered significantly low

Daryl has a total of 160 National Football League (NFL) trading cards from both the American Football Conference (AFC) and the N
Svet_ta [14]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

Since A represents the number of AFC cars and N represents the number of NFC cards, and that Daryl has 160 total cards, then A+N = 160, the total number of cards. Furthermore, the number of AFC cards Daryl has is 8 more than 3 times the number of NFC cards, so A would be equal to 8 + 3N, or A = 3N + 8. The only system of equations with both of these correct equations is B.

Show that the maximum rate of change, with respect to radius, of the volume of a deflating balloon is four times the sphere's in
dmitriy555 [2]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say R is the initial radius of the sphere, and r is the radius at time t.

The volume of the sphere at time t is:

V = 4/3 π r³

Taking derivative with respect to radius:

dV/dr = 4π r²

This is a maximum when r is a maximum, which is when r = R.

(dV/dr)max = 4π R²

This is 4 times the sphere's initial great circle area, but not the great circle circumference.  The problem statement contains an error.
