Answer:

97.7% of of the boxes weigh more than 22.9 ounces.

15.9% of of the boxes weigh less than 23.7 ounces.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

Mean, μ =  24.5 ounces

Standard Deviation, σ = 0.8 ounce

We are given that the distribution of boxes weight is a bell shaped distribution that is a normal distribution.

Formula:

z_{score} = \displaystyle\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

a) P(boxes weigh more than 22.9 ounces)

P(x > 22.9)

P( x > 22.9) = P( z > \displaystyle\frac{22.9 - 24.5}{0.8}) = P(z > -2)

= 1 - P(z \leq -2)

Calculation the value from standard normal z table, we have,  

P(x > 22.9) = 1 - 0.023 =0.977= 97.7\%

97.7% of of the boxes weigh more than 22.9 ounces.

b) P(boxes weigh less than 23.7 ounces)

P(x < 23.7)

P( x < 23.7) = P( z < \displaystyle\frac{23.7 - 24.5}{0.8}) = P(z < -1)

Calculation the value from standard normal z table, we have,  

P(x < 23.7) =0.159= 15.9\%

15.9% of of the boxes weigh less than 23.7 ounces.

Answer:

1.7 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

R is the midpoint of QS, so RS = 4 feet.

Using sine:

sin 25° = RT / 4

RT = 4 sin 25°

RT ≈ 1.7

A 100 point test contains a total of 20 questions. The multiple choice questions are worth 3 points each and the short response
JulsSmile [24]

Answer: the number of multiple choice questions in the test is 12.

the number of short response questions in the test is 8.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of multiple choice questions in the test.

Let y represent the number of short response questions in the test.

The total number of questions in the test is 20. It means that

x + y = 20

The multiple choice questions are worth 3 points each and the short response question are worth 8 points each. The total number of points is 100. It means that

3x + 8y = 100 - - - - - - - - - - 1

Substituting x = 20 - y into equation 1, it becomes

3(20 - y) + 8y = 100

60 - 3y + 8y = 100

- 3y + 8y = 100 - 60

5y = 40

y = 40/5 = 8

x = 20 - y = 20 - 8

x = 12
