Answer:

option A: 0.2357

Step-by-step explanation:

P( less than 1.76 or greater than 2.39) = P(X < 1.76) + P( X > 2.39)

P(X < 1.76) = 0.0126 (as per the excel output)

P(X < 2.39) = 0.7769

Hence P( X> 2.39) = 1- 0.7769 = 0.223

P( less than 1.76 or greater than 2.39) = P(X < 1.76) + P( X > 2.39) = 0.0126 + 0.223 = 0.2357

P( less than 1.76 or greater than 2.39) = 0.2357

Answer:

Option A

The upper value of the two values (equidistant from the mean) that cover 80% of the distribution is 2.5888 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a normal distribution problem as the probability distribution presented in the tables before the question rightly attest to.

Taking any of the values in the table and finding the percentage of weights of new parts less than or equal to that weight, using the z-score and the normal distribution table, we obtain the corresponding probabilities on the table.

This is the biggest proof that this distribution is indeed a normal distribution with

Mean = μ = 2.23 points

Standard deviation = σ = 0.28

The probability is 0.80 that the weight for a part (in pounds) made using the new production process will be between two values equidistant from the mean

Let the two values equidistant from the mean be x' and x"

The given probability is

P(x' < x < x") = 0.80

Let their respective z-scores be z' and z"

P(x' < x < x") = P(z' < z < z") = 0.80

Noting that the mean for a normal distribution has a z-score of 0, and weights above and below the mean have a proportion of 50%, that is, 0.5 each.

The lower limit of the weights we require will be more than 10% of the distribution and the upper limit of the weights we require will be more than 90% of the distribution.

These proportions (10% and 90%) are exactly each 40% from the mean (equidistant) and cover 80% of the total distribution equidistant from the mean.

So, to find the upper limit now,

P(x < x") = 90% = 0.90

P(x < x") = P(z < z") = 0.90

Using the normal distribution tables, the z-score that corresponds to 0.90 is 1.282.

z-score is given as the weight minus the mean weight divided by the standard deviation.

z" = (x" - μ)/σ

1.282 = (x" - 2.23)/0.28

x" = 2.23 + (1.282 × 0.28)

x" = 2.58896 pounds ≈ 2.5888 pounds (from the options provided)

Hence, the upper value of the two values equidistant from the mean that cover 80% of the distribution is 2.5888 pounds.

Hope this Helps!!!

A frozen dinner at a grocery store is purchased for $2.20 wholesale and is marked up by 40 percent. A customer wants to buy four
Y_Kistochka [10]
Since the frozen dinner at the grocery store was bumped up by 40%, the new price would have been $3.08
Now, a customer wants to buy 4 frozen dinners, so multiply the price of one frozen dinner by 4.
$3.08 x 4 = $12.32
There is a 9% sales tax put up for the grocery store. You will want to multiply 9% (or .09) times the price of the 4 frozen dinners.
$12.32 x .09 ~ $1.11
Add the sales tax price to the price of the four frozen dinners.
$12.32 + $1.11 = $13.43 
$13.43 will be the amount the customer will pay.

What is the area if the circular shadow of the hot air balloon?
LuckyWell [14K]
The formula of Area is " A = (<span><span>π)(r*2) ". Now that we know that the only thing we need to do is plug in. In the image shows that the diameter is 56, so to find the radius you need to divide it by 2, which is 28. Then 28 to the second power time pi. 

A = </span></span><span><span>π(28*2)

A = </span></span><span><span>π(784)

A = 2463</span></span>
