The Acme Company manufactures widgets. The distribution of widget weights is bell-shaped. The widget weights have a mean of 37 o

unces and a standard deviation of 7 ounces. Use the Empirical Rule, also known as the 68-95-99.7 Rule. Do not use Tables or Technology to avoid rounding errors. Suggestion: sketch the distribution in order to answer these questions. a) 68% of the widget weights lie between and b) What percentage of the widget weights lie between 23 and 44 ounces

Answer:

a) 68 % will lie between 30 and 44 ounces

b) between 23 and 44 ounces will lie 81,5 %

Step-by-step explanation: See Annex

a) Normal Distribution  N ( 37, 7)

The Empirical Rule establishes that 68 % of values will be at

μ  ±  1 σ      where μ is the mean and σ the standard deviation

Then:   37 - 7  = 30    and 37 + 7 = 44

68 % of the values will lie between  30 and 44 ounces

b) And between  23 and 44 we should find:

We have 95 %  of values between

μ  ± 2*σ  

In our case to the left of the value (mean 0 ) and up to the value 23 we get 95/2 = 47,5 % and to the right of the value (mean 0 ) and up to 44 we half 68/2 = 34 %

Then between 23 and 44, we have 47,5 + 34 = 81,5 %

What is the volume of a shipping cube with dimensions of 2 and 1/2 feet
Fantom [35]

For this case we have that by definition, the volume of a cube is given by:

V = l ^ 3

Where:

l: It's the side of the cube

According to the statement data:

l = 2 \frac {1} {2} = \frac {2 * 2 + 1} {2} = \frac {5} {2}

Substituting in the formula we have:

V = (\frac {5} {2}) ^ 3\\V = \frac {5 ^ 3} {2 ^ 3}\\V = \frac {125} {8}\\V = 15.625

Thus, the shipping cube volume is15.625 \ ft ^ 3

Answer:

15.625 \ ft ^ 3
