The owner of the pizza chain wants to monitor the total weight of pepperoni. Suppose that for pizzas in this population, the wei

ghts have a mean of 250g and a standard deviation of 4g. Management takes a random sample of 64 of these pizzas and calculates the mean weight of the pepperoni on the pizzas. Assume that the pizzas in the sample are independent. What is the probability that the mean weight of the pepperoni from the sample of 64 pizzas is greater than 251g

Answer:

The probability that the mean weight of the pepperoni from the sample of 64 pizzas is greater than 251 g is 0.02275.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that the owner of the pizza chain wants to monitor the total weight of pepperoni. Suppose that for pizzas in this population, the weights have a mean of 250 g and a standard deviation of 4 g.

Management takes a random sample of 64 of these pizzas.

<u><em>Let </em></u>\bar X<u><em> = sample mean weight of the pepperoni.</em></u>

The z score probability distribution for sample mean is given by;

                                Z =  \frac{X-\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } } ~ N(0,1)

where, \mu = population mean weight = 250 g

            \sigma = standard deviation = 4 g

            n = sample of pizzas = 64

Now, the probability that the mean weight of the pepperoni from the sample of 64 pizzas is greater than 251 g is given by = P(\bar X > 251 g)

   P(\bar X > 251 g) = P( \frac{\bar X-\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } } > \frac{251-250}{\frac{4}{\sqrt{64} } } ) = P(Z > 2) = 1 - P(Z \leq 2)

                                                     = 1 - 0.97725 = 0.02275

<em>The above probabilities is calculated by looking at the value of x = 2 in the z table which has an area of 0.97725.</em>

<em />

Hence, the probability that the mean weight of the pepperoni from the sample of 64 pizzas is greater than 251 g is 0.02275.

What is the value of x if:<br> -0.1x + 3/10 = 4/10<br> Solve as linear equation.<br> NEED HELP ASAP
Anika [276]

Answer:

x= -1

Step-by-step explanation:

Solving through linear equation,

-0.1x + 3/10= 4/10

Bring 3/10 to the other side making it minus

-0.1x = 4/10 - 3/10

-0.1x = (4-3)/10

-0.1x= 1/10

Bring -0.1 to the other side n divide

x= 1/10 ÷ -0.1

( Note that -0.1 is the same as -1/10)

x = 1/10 ÷ -1/10

= 1/10*-10/1

= -10/10

= -1

A membership to the gym costs $23 per person in 1995. The membership cost has increased by an average of $6 per person for each
notsponge [240]
A) The membership cost starts at $23 and it adds $6 every year. The 23 would be your b and the 6 would be your slope, m, in the form y=mx+b.
y=6x+23
This equation means that you're starting at 23 dollars and adding 6 dollars with every x you add.

B) 2009-1995=14 This means that there's 14 years that the cost increased. 14*6=$84 The membership cost increased by anther $84 over the 14 years. You have to add 84 to 23 to find your total=$107. 

C) Set $85 equal to 6x+23
85=6x+23
6x=62
x≈10
10 years later the cost will be $85. 
1995+10=2005
