The amount of icing on a Cuppie Cake large cupcake follows a Normal distribution, with a mean of 2 ounces and a standard deviati

on of 0.3 ounce. A random sample of 16 cupcakes is selected every day and measured. What is the probability the mean weight will exceed 2.1 ounces?

Answer: the probability the mean weight will exceed 2.1 ounces is 0.09

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the random variable representing the amount of icing on a Cuppie Cake large cupcake. Since it is normally distributed and the population mean and population standard deviation are known, we would apply the formula,

z = (x - µ)/(σ/√n)

Where

x = sample mean

µ = population mean

σ = standard deviation

n = number of samples

From the information given,

µ = 2

σ = 0.3

n = 16

x = 2.1

the probability that the mean weight will exceed 2.1 ounces is expressed as

P(x ≥ 2.1)

For x = 2.1

z = (2.1 - 2)/(0.3/√16) = 1.33

We would determine the probability for the area above z = 1.33 from the normal distribution table. It would be

p = 1 - 0.91 = 0.09

P(x ≥ 2.1) = 0.09

Answer:

c = -6

d = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

After reflection about the x-axis:

A --> A'

(2,3) --> (2,-3)

(4,3) --> (4,-3)

(2,6) --> (2,-6)

After translation:

(2 + c, -6 + d) --> (-4, -4)

2+c = -4

c = -6

-6+d = -4

d = 2

DaniilM [7]

Answer:

b) 2.00

Step-by-step explanation:

For each name, there are only two possible outcomes. Either it is authentic, or it is not. The probability of a name being authentic is independent of any other name. This means that we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

Probability of exactly x sucesses on n repeated trials, with p probability.

The expected value of the binomial distribution is:

E(X) = np

She randomly selects five names from the list for validation.

This means that n = 5

40% of the names on the list are non-authentic

This means that p = 0.4

The expected (average) value of x is

E(X) = np = 5*0.4 = 2

The correct answer is given by option B.
