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!!!

If a person invests $290 at 6% annual interest, find the approximate value of the investment at the end of 15 years. A. $450 B.
spin [16.1K]

Answer:

\large \boxed{\sf \bf \ \ C. \ \$ 695 \ \ }

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello, please consider the following.

At the beginning, we have $290.

After 1 year, we get 290 + 6% * 290 = 290 (1+0.06)= 290 * 1.06

After n years, we get 290\cdot 1.06^n

So after 15 years, we get.

290\cdot 1.06^{15}=695.0018...

Thank you

An event planner expects 432 teachers to attend a conference. If the planner places 24 chairs in each row, estimate the number o
Naddika [18.5K]

Answer:

The number of rows needed to provide seating for all  teachers is 18.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, the total number of guests expected to attend = 432 teachers

Now,  given : The number of chairs placed in each row = 24

Let us assume , the total number of rows of chairs  = m

Now, The total chairs in the conference room

= The number of rows x The chairs in each row

=  24 x (m)  = 24 m

Also, the TOTAL CHAIRS  = TOTAL GUEST EXPECTED

⇒ 24 m = 432

or,  m = 432 / 24 = 18

or, m = 18

Hence, the number of rows needed to provide seating for all of the teachers is 18.
