Answer:
0.81859
Step-by-step explanation:
We solve using z score method
The formula for calculating a z-score is is z = (x-μ)/σ,
where
x is the raw score
μ is the population mean
σ is the population standard deviation.
Mean 0.8 pound
Standard deviation 0.25 pound
For x = 0.55 pound
z = 0.55 - 0.8/0.25
= -1
Probability -value from Z-Table:
P(x = 0.55) = 0.15866
For x = 1.3 pounds
Z = 1.3 = 0.8/0.25
= 2
Probability value from Z-Table:
P(x = 1.3) = 0.97725
The probability that a randomly selected zucchini will weigh between 0.55 pound and 1.3 pounds is
P(x = 1.3) - P(x = 0.8)
0.97725 - 0.15866
0.81859.
Answer:
C
(8)(-5)
Just multiply, 8 x -5 = -40
Because the left side is eclipsed in an absolute value, we have two possible values of x, denoted by:
2x+4 = 12 and -(2x+4) = 12
Solving for both of these, we are presented with the two values of x:
x = 4 and x = -8
The answers are #1 45 #2 24 #3 10
