Answer:

2.28% probability that it will weigh less than 900 grams

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples are 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 = 910, \sigma = 5

What is the probability that it will weigh less than 900 grams?

This probability is the pvalue of Z when X = 900. So

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

Z = \frac{900 - 910}{5}

Z = -2

Z = -2 has a pvalue of 0.0228.

2.28% probability that it will weigh less than 900 grams

Given the inequality below:<br><br> 3x-y&gt;4<br><br> Which is the graph of the solution set?
OLga [1]

Answer:

A shaded region below a dashed line (y <3x-4)

Step-by-step explanation:

For linear inequalities, we have shaded regions below or above a dashed or solid or continuous line represented by an inequality.

Their graphs are called region graphs. Those regions are only enclosed ones if before the sign of inequality it is included both variables. Like x²+y²<1, |x+y|<1, etc.

In this case what we have here is an open region, as the graph below shows.

3x-y>4 =-y>4-3x∴y<3x-4

Setting a value for x

3x-4=0

3x=4

3x/3=4/3

x=4/3 (slope)

(4/3,0)
