Answer:

If 27 fruits are picked at random, then 2% of the time, their mean weight will be greater than 466.37 grams

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean = \mu = 464

Standard deviation =\sigma = 6

We are supposed to find If 27 fruits are picked at random, then 2% of the time, their mean weight will be greater than how many grams i.e.P(X>x)=0.02

The mean weight is in the highest 2%, you want to go to a z-table and find the z-score that where the area to the left of the curve is closest to 0.98.

n = 27

Refer the z -table

P(Z>x)=2.06

\frac{x-\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}=2.06\\\frac{x-464}{\frac{6}{\sqrt{27}}}=2.06\\x-464=2.06 \times \frac{6}{\sqrt{27}}\\x=(2.06 \times \frac{6}{\sqrt{27}})+464\\x=466.37

So, If 27 fruits are picked at random, then 2% of the time, their mean weight will be greater than 466.37 grams

Solve for x.<br><br> 5/6 x = 10/3<br><br> x = 4/3<br><br> x = 2<br><br> x = 25/9<br><br> x = 4
SashulF [63]

Answer: LAST OPTION.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to solve for the variable "x" from the expression \frac{5}{6}x=\frac{10}{3}, you need to follow these steps:

1) You need to multiply both sides of the equation by 3:

3(\frac{5}{6}x)=(\frac{10}{3})(3)\\\\\frac{15}{6}x=10

2)  You need to multiply both sides of the equation by 6:

(6)(\frac{15}{6}x)=(10)(6)\\\\15x=60

3) Finally, you can divide both sides of the equation by 15:

\frac{15x}{15}=\frac{60}{15}\\\\x=4
