current rules for telephone area codes allow the use of digits 2-9 for the first digit and 0-9 for the second and third digits.

lukranit [14]

In this question, there are 10 digit phone number which was divided into 3-3-4 digits. Every first digit of the division should be 2-9 which mean only 8 possibilities. The other digits would be 0-9 which mean 10 possibilities. Then the calculation would be:

8*10*10 * 8*10*10 * 8*10*10*10 = 8^3 * 10*7= 512 * 10^7= 5.12 * 10^9

If you convert <span>400,000,000 into the scientific form it will become 4* 10^8. Since 5.12*10^9 > 4 * 10^8, then it is clear that the number should be enough</span>

The number of chocolate chips in a popular brand of cookie is normally distributed with a mean of 22 chocolate chips per cookie

MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Answer:

The cutoff numbers for the number of chocolate chips in acceptable cookies are 16.242 and 27.758

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the zscore of a measure X is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this problem, we have that:

$\mu = 22, \sigma = 3.5$
