The weight of a package of mints is believed to be normally distributed with mean 21.37 grams and standard deviation 0.4, i.e. X

\sim N(21.37,0.4). What is the chance that a sample of 4 packages of mints has an average weight, \overline X, between 21 and 22 grams

Answer:

P(21

And using a calculator, excel or the normal standard table we have that:

P(-1.85

Step-by-step explanation:

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 weigths of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

X \sim N(21.37,0.4)  

Where \mu=21.37 and \sigma=0.4

Since the distribution for X is normal then we know that the distribution for the sample mean \bar X is given by:

\bar X \sim N(\mu, \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}})

We can find the probability required with the following z score formula:

z = \frac{\bar X -\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}


And replacing we got:

P(21

And using a calculator, excel or the normal standard table we have that:

P(-1.85

How many times greater is The total area of Russia than the total area of Finland? Finland total area is 3.4 x 10 to the 5th pow
Luden [163]

Answer:

The answer to your question is Russia is 50 times greater than Finland.

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

Finland area = 3.4 x 10⁵ km²

Russia area = 1.7 x 10⁷ km²

Proportion = ?

Process

1.- Just divide the Russia's area by the Finland's area.

   Proportion = \frac{Finland's area}{Russia's area}

   Proportion = \frac{1.7 x 10^{7} }{3.4 x 10^{5} }

   Porportion = 50

I have a small question what is this-
Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

negative 5 is less then -3 is the statement. so saying that -3 is less than five, is false.

remember your number line.

-5_-4_-3_-2_-1_0_1_2_3_4_5_6

five sure is to the left of three, and saying that three is to the right of five is the exact same thing.

How to solve 4(2x-7)-2×=-10 step by step
KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer: x=3

Step-by-step explanation:

4(2x-7)-2x=-10

Multiply 4 with 2x and -7

8x-28-2x=-10

Add like terms which are 8x and -2x

6x-28=-10

Add 28 to both sides so the -28 cancels out

6x=18

Divide both sides by 6 to isolate the x

Answer= x=3
