Answer:
c) 300.9 ft²
Step-by-step explanation:
He has 4 1/4 bags of mulch in his shed to use. Each bag of mulch will cover 70.8 ft².
Hence:
1 bag of mulch = 70.8ft²
4 1/4 bags of mulch = x ft²
Cross Multiply
1 bag × x ft² = 4 1/4 × 70.8
x ft² = 4 1/4 × 70.8/1
x = 300.9 ft²
Option c is correct.
Answer:
The answer is 71.61%.
Step-by-step explanation:
Households discarding paper week is given to be normally distributed with a mean,
= 9.4 lb.
The normally distributed distribution has a standard deviation given as
= 4.2 lb.
The proportion of households that throw out at least 7 lb of paper a week is to be found.
Therefore we have to find p(X ≥ 7) which can be written as
p(X ≥ 7) = 1 - p(X < 7)
= 1 - p( Z <
)
= 1 - p( Z <
)
= 1 - p( Z < -0.571 )
= 1 - 0.2839
= 0.7161
Therefore the percentage of households that throw out at least 7 lb paper a week is 71.61%
