The Aluminum Association reports that the average American uses 56.8 pounds of aluminum in a year. A random sample of 51 househo

lds is monitored for one year to determine aluminum usage. If the population standard deviation of annual usage is 12.2 pounds, what is the probability that the sample mean will be each of the following? Appendix A Statistical Tables a. More than 61 pounds

Answer:

0.007

Step-by-step explanation:

We were told in the above question that a random sample of 51 households is monitored for one year to determine aluminum usage

Step 1

We would have to find the sample standard deviation.

We use the formula = σ/√n

σ = 12.2 pounds

n = number of house holds = 51

= 12.2/√51

Sample Standard deviation = 1.7083417025.

Step 2

We find the z score for when the sample mean is more than 61

z-score formula is z = (x-μ)/σ

where:

x = raw score = 61 pounds

μ = the population mean = 56.8 pounds

σ = the sample standard deviation = 1.7083417025

z = (x-μ)/σ

z = (61 - 56.8)/ 1.7083417025

z = 2.45852

Finding the Probability using the z score table

P(z = 2.45852) = 0.99302

P(x>61) = 1 - P(z = 2.45852) = 0.0069755

≈ 0.007

Therefore,the probability that the sample mean will be more than 61 pounds is 0.007

A right triangle has one angle that measure 23o. The adjacent leg measures 27.6 cm and the hypotenuse measures 30 cm.What is the
oksian1 [2.3K]

Area of a triangle is given by half the product of two of the sides and the sine of the included angle.

Thus, the area of the triangle is 0.5 x 27.6 x 30 x sin 23^o = 161.76 cm^2

A cab charges $1.75 for the flat fee and $0.25 for each mile. write and solve an inequality to determine how many miles eddie ca
ad-work [718]
The answer is <span>a. $1.75 + $0.25x ≤ $15; x ≤ 53 miles
</span>
x - the number of miles
C - the cab charge

<span>A cab charges $1.75 for the flat fee and $0.25 for each mile:  C = 1.75 + 0.25x.
</span><span>Eddie has $15 to spend. So, he cannot spend more than 15 on the cab and the maximum amount he can spend is 15. Therefore:
</span>1.75 + 0.25x ≤ 15

Now, let's solve it:
0.25x ≤ 15 - 1.75
0.25x ≤ 13.25
x ≤ 13.25 / 0.25
x ≤ 53
