Answer:

69.15% probability that a randomly selected unit from a recently manufactured batch weighs more than 3.75 ounces.

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this problem, we have that:

Mean of four ounces, so \mu = 4

Variance of .25 squared ounces. The standard deviation is the square root of the variance, so \sigma = \sqrt{0.25} = 0.5

What is the probability that a randomly selected unit from a recently manufactured batch weighs more than 3.75 ounces?

This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 3.75. So

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{3.75 - 4}{0.5}

Z = -0.5

Z = -0.5 has a pvalue of 0.3085.

So there is a 1-0.3085 = 0.6915 = 69.15% probability that a randomly selected unit from a recently manufactured batch weighs more than 3.75 ounces.

zloy xaker [14]

Answer:

96 in^2

Step-by-step explanation:

area of rectangle: 24*8=192

Area of triangle: (1/2)*base*height

= .5 * 8 * 24

=192/2

=96

area of shaded=rectangle - triangle

= 192-96

which is also just 192/2

so it is 96
