Answer:
The answer to the question is;
The probability that the resulting sample mean of nicotine content will be less than 0.89 is 0.1587 or 15.87 %.
Step-by-step explanation:
The mean of the distribution = 0.9 mg
The standard deviation of the sample = 0.1 mg
The size of the sample = 100
The mean of he sample = 0.89
The z score for sample mean is given by
where
X = Mean of the sample
μ = Mean of the population
σ = Standard deviation of the population
Therefore Z = = -1
From the standard probabilities table we have the probability for a z value of -1.0 = 0.1587
Therefore the probability that the resulting sample mean will be less than 0.89 = 0.1587 That is the probability that the mean is will be less than 0.89 is 15.87 % probability.
Answer:
B) 34/48
Step-by-step explanation:
The easiest common denominator to find is the product of the denominators you have.
__
The difference is ...
__
<em>Additional comment</em>
The difference numerator and denominator have a common factor of 2, so can be reduced to 17/24. The denominator 24 could have been used as the common denominator from the start.
5/6 -1/8 = 20/24 -3/24 = 17/24 . . . . reduced result
__
Using the <em>least common denominator</em> does not always result in a reduced sum or difference. If some other denominator is used (as here), then you can be assured that the result will need to be reduced to get to lowest terms.
