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

Answer:

38.13 ft squared

Step-by-step explanation:

Since it is half of a circle we first find the area of a normal circle then divide by two.

So to find the area of  a circle it is pi times radius squared which in this case it would be 3.14 times 9 = 28.26

Then since it is a half circle we divide by two so

28.26/2 = 14.13

Then to find the area of the triangle we do 4 times 6 which is 24.

now we add the two which is 14.13 + 24 which is

38.13

What is the diameter of a circle with a radius of 4.375"? 2.187" or 2.375" or 8.375" or 8.750"
AURORKA [14]
DONT CLICK ON THE LINKS! It’s 8.750 BY THE WAY the radius is half the diameter so just add the radius by itself or multiply by 2
