There are 500 students in a high school senior class. Of these 500 students, 300 regularly wear a necklace to

andre [41]

Answer:

1. P(N) = 3/5

2. P(R) = 2/5

3. P(N and R) = 1/4

4. P(N or R) = 3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let's review the information given to us to answer the problem correctly:

Number of students in a high school senior class = 500

Number of students that regularly wear a necklace = 300

Number of students that regularly wear a ring = 200

Number of students that wear a necklace and a ring = 125

2. What is P(N), the probability that a senior wears a necklace?

Let's recall the formula of probability:

Probability = Number of favorable outcomes/Total of possible outcomes

Substituting with the real given values:

P(N) = 300/500 = 3/5 (Dividing by 100 numerator and denominator)

P(N) = 3/5

3. What is P(R), the probability that a senior wears a ring?

Substituting with the real given values:

P(R) = 200/500 = 2/5 (Dividing by 100 numerator and denominator)

P(R) = 2/5

4. What is P(N and R), the probability that a senior wears a necklace and a ring?

Substituting with the real given values:

P(N and R) = 125/500 = 1/4 (Dividing by 125 numerator and denominator)

P(N and R) = 1/4

5. What is P(N or R), the probability that a senior wears a necklace or a ring?

P(N or R) = P(N) + P(R) - P(N and R)

Substituting with the real given values:

P(N or R) = 3/5 + 2/5 - 1/4

P(N or R) = 5/5 - 1/4

P(N or R) = 1 - 1/4

P(N or R) = 3/4

Given the choices, the best fitting answer would be the first one. "2 loaves of bread and 4 batches of muffins". I figured this out by multiplying the amount of flour and sugar required for each loaf of bread and batch of muffins

If the filling equipment is functioning properly what is the probability that the volume of oil in a randomly selected barrel wi

Sophie [7]

Answer:

$P(X>55.4)=P(\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}>\frac{55.4-\mu}{\sigma})=P(Z>\frac{55.4-55}{0.5})=P(Z>0.8)$

$P(Z>0.8)=1-P(Z\leq 0.8)$

$P(Z>0.8)=1-0.788=0.212$

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming this previous info : "Trucks carry barrels of crude oil from a port in Texas to a distributer in New Mexico on long trailers. Filling equipment is used to fill the barrels with the oil. When functioning properly, the actual volume of oil loaded into each barrel by the filling equipment at the port is approximately normally distributed with a mean of 55 gallons and a standard deviation of 0.5 gallons. If the mean is greater than 55.4 gallons, the filling mechanism is overfilling."

Previous concepts

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean".

Solution to the problem

Let X the random variable that represent the amount filling of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

$X \sim N(55,0.5)$
