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.

Vika [28.1K]

Answer:

  18 square units

Step-by-step explanation:

The given rectangle has an x-dimension of 3-1 = 2, and a y-dimension of 5-2 = 3. Stretching the x-dimension by a factor of 3 will multiply it to ...

  2×3 = 6

and give you a rectangle 6 units wide by 3 units high. Its area will be ...

  (6 units)(3 units) = 18 units²

X+9=24 how to solve for x
rodikova [14]
You can easily do just one step to get the value of x.

x + 9 =24            subtract 9 from both sides

x + 9 - 9 = 24 - 9

Simplify:

x = 15


I hope I helped you.
