Answer:

The probability that a customer’s order will not be met during a month is 1.67.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : A warehouse distributor of carpet keeps 6,000 yards of deluxe shag carpet in stock during a month. The average demand for carpet from the stores that purchase from the distributor is 4,500 yards per month, with a standard deviation of 900 yards.

To find : What is the probability that a customer’s order will not be met during a month?

Solution :

Average Mean \mu=4500

Sample Mean x=6000

Standard deviation \sigma=900

The formula is given by,

Z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

Substitute the value in the formula,

Z=\frac{6000-4500}{900}

Z=\frac{1500}{900}

Z=1.67

The probability that a customer’s order will not be met during a month is 1.67.

sukhopar [10]

Answer:

0.3 per year

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of newborn per year: 200*0.5 = 100

Number of death per year:  200*0.2= 40

So, the difference between birth and death = 100-40 = 60 (people)

and the growth rate during the year is: 60/200 = 0.3

Nancy knows that the perimeter of her garden is 28 feet, and the length is 8 feet. She forgot to measure the width, but was able
8_murik_8 [283]

Answer:

W = (P - 2L)/2 = (28- 2*8)/2 = 6

Where W is the width, P is the perimeter and L is the length of the garden.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the equations are not given, i will try to come up with the similar equation than the ne that was the correct option in this exercise.

You can obtain the perimeter of a rectangle by summing the length of its four sides. Thus, the perimeter of the garden, lets call it P, is 2W + 2L, where W denotes the width and L the length. Since Nancy knows the perimeter, in order to calculate the width she can substract from it 2L (which is also known), and divide by 2 to obtain W, thus

W = (P - 2L)/2

If we reemplace P by 28 and L by 8, we obtain

W = (28-8*2)/2 = (28-16)/2 ) = 12/2 = 6.

There are 30 major league baseball teams and 32 national football league teams. The expanded roster for the Major League teams i
nikdorinn [45]

Answer:

<em>The National football league has </em><em>464 more players</em><em> than the Major League baseball.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Since there are 30 teams in the Major league baseball and there are 40 players in each team, this means that the total number of players in the Major league baseball is:

30 × 40 = 1200 players

Since there are 32 teams in the National football league and there are 52 players in each team, this means that the total number of players in the National football league is:

32 × 52 = 1664 players

Therefore, the difference in the number of players in both leagues is:

<em>1664 - 1200 =  464 players</em>

<em></em>

Therefore, the National football league has <em>464 more players</em> than the Major League baseball.
