Answer:

<em>The probability that on a given day the supermarket will sell between 304 and 305 gallons of milk is 0.0127 or 1.27%</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Normal Distribution</u>

The graph of the Normal Distribution is also called the Bell Curve because of its particular shape. It occurs naturally in many real situations where a random variable needs to be modeled according to experimental results.

To evaluate the probability of a Normal Distribution, we need some kind of digital means because the formula cannot be computed directly in a formula. We'll use the MS Excel's specialized formula NORMDIST for the first value of x=304:

NORMDIST( 304 , 319.9 , 26.4 , true ) = 0.2735

Now for x=305:

NORMDIST( 305 , 319.9 , 26.4 , true ) = 0.2862

Both values are now subtracted to get the required probability

P(304

The probability that on a given day the supermarket will sell between 304 and 305 gallons of milk is 0.0127 or 1.27%

Answer:

When there are numbers like that next to the radical it means multiply. like this: 2<u>√9</u>. You would first figure out the square root. <u>Square root of 9</u> is 3. 2 times 3 is 6.

After you figure out those problems, you just need to put the number, x, and y in an equation with 2 unknowns.
