A company tests all new brands of golf balls to ensure that they meet certain specifications. One test conducted is intended to

measure the average distance traveled when the ball is hit by a machine. Suppose the company wishes to estimate the mean distance for a new brand to within 1.9 yards with 90​% confidence. Assume that past tests have indicated that the standard deviation of the distances the machine hits golf balls is approximately 14 yards. How many golf balls should be hit by the machine to achieve the desired accuracy in estimating the​ mean?

Answer:

385 golf balls

Step-by-step explanation:

margin of error = (z*)(s) / sqrt n

where z* = 1.96 with 5%/ 2 = 0.025 area in each tail

margin of error = (z*)(s) / sqrt n

1.2 yards = (1.96)(12 yards) / sqrt n

solve for n

n = 384.16

385 golf balls (always round up)

Henry combines 7.49 litters of red paint with 6.26 litters of red paint and pours it in to 4 container with 0.43 litters of pain
11111nata11111 [884]
To find the answer we start by adding the contents of both containers together
7.49 + 6.26 = 13.75
Since we know that there is leftover paint we are going to subtract the leftovers from the total of combined paint
13.75 - 0.43 = 13.32
The combined paint is poured into 4 containers so we divide our combined total minus the leftovers by 4
13.32/4 = 3.33
Answer: There are 3.33 liters of paint in each container
