That function is incorrect.
The correct function is . . . . C(f) = (5/9) (f - 32) .

If a Fahrenheit thermometer reads 52° ,
then a Celsius thermometer should read . . .

C (52) = (5/9) (52 - 32) =

(5/9) (20) = (11 and 1/9)°C.

C(52)= (52-32)=20. You substitute (f) with 52

The weight of strawberries follows a normal distribution with a mean weight of 12 grams and a standard deviation of 2.5 grams. I

Viefleur [7K]

This is a problem of Standard Normal distribution.

We have mean= 12 grams
Standard Deviation = 2.5 grams

First we convert 8.5 to z score. 8.5 converted to z score for given mean and standard deviation will be:

$z= \frac{8.5-12}{2.5} =-1.4$

So, from standard normal table we need to find the probability of z score to be less than -1.4. The probability comes out to be 0.0808

Thus, the probability that the strawberry weighs less than 8.5 grams is 0.0808
