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.

Barbara purchased a home entertainment center for $2,665 using an 18-month deferred payment plan with an interest rate of 24.36%
Andre45 [30]

Answer:

P = $ 144.99

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data:

cost of home entertainment center is $2665

duration of deferred payment plan is 18 month

interest rate is 24.36%

Total amount to be paid is = P(1+ \frac{R}{100})^t

                                          = 2665 (1+ \frac{24.36}{100})^1.5

A = 3695.88

From the information in the questioon this amount is to be paid in 3 year . Thus we have

Monthly payment is =

P = \frac{r(Pv)}{1 - (1+ r)^{-n}}

p = monthly payment

Pv = present value = 3695.88

r =rate per period = \frac{24.36}{12} = 0.020

n = number of period = 12\times 3 = 36

plugging all value in the above formula

P = \frac{0.020\times 3695.88}{1 - (1+0.020)^{-36}}

P = $ 144.99

Answer:

5 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

75 + 55x = 350

75 - 75 + 55x = 350 - 75

55x = 275

\frac{55x}{55} = \frac{275}{55}

x = 5

What is the equation of a line that passes through (1,5) and (3,11)? Show work please.
jekas [21]
First, find the gradient/slope:
Use slope formula:
m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
=(11-5)/(3-1)
=6/2
=3
Then use the line equation formula:
y=mx+c
You can substitute (1,5) if you like, also must substitute the slope as well!
5=3x1+c
c=2
Then find the full equation, which gives you the answer:
y=3x+2
