D) Melissa added incorrectly. The correct answer is 5.5 degrees Fahrenheit.

Multiply 5 degrees by 5 hours.

5 * 5 = 25

The temperature rose 25 degrees from 5am to 10am.

Add -20.5 + 25.

-20.5 + 25 = 5.5

The temperature at 10am should be 5.5 degrees Fahrenheit.

Southwest Co-op produces bags of fertilizer, and it is concerned about impurity content. It is believed that the weights of impu
Harman [31]

Answer:

a) 0.216

b) 0.1587

c) 0.369

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

Mean, μ = 12.2 grams

Standard Deviation, σ = 2.8 grams

We are given that the distribution of weights of impurities per bag is a bell shaped distribution that is a normal distribution.

Formula:

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

a) P(contains less than 10 grams of impurities)

P(x < 10)

P( x < 10) = P( z < \displaystyle\frac{10 - 12.2}{2.8}) = P(z < -0.7857)

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

P(x < 10) =0.216= 21.6\%

b) P(contains more than 15 grams of impurities)

P(x > 15)

P( x > 15) = P( z > \displaystyle\frac{15 - 12.2}{2.8}) = P(z > 1)

= 1 - P(z \leq 1)

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

P(x > 610) = 1 - 0.8413 = 0.1587 = 15.87\%

c) P(contains between 12 and 15 grams of impurities)

P(12 \leq x \leq 15) = P(\displaystyle\frac{12 - 12.2}{2.8} \leq z \leq \displaystyle\frac{15-12.2}{2.8}) \\\\= P(-0.0714 \leq z \leq 1)\\\\= P(z \leq 1) - P(z < -0.0714)\\= 0.841 - 0.472 = 0.369 = 36.9\%

P(12 \leq x \leq 15) = 36.9%

d) The mean divide the data in exactly two parts. Since 15 is farther away from the mean as compared to 10, the probability obtained in part (b) is smaller as compared to probability obtained in part (a).

A petrol can is a rectangular prism with base measurements 15 cm by 30 cm. If the can has capacity 18 liters, find its height.​
Bingel [31]

Answer:

40

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step is to calculate the base area of the prism

= 15×30

= 450

The volume is then calculated as follows

= 450×h

= 450h

The capacity is 18 liters

= 18×1000

= 18,000

Therefore the height of the rectangular prism can be calculated as follows

450h= 18,000

h= 18,000/450

= 40

Hence the height is 40 cm
