A machine is used to fill Apple Juice bottles with juice. The machine has a known standard deviation of σ = 0.05 liters. The tar

get mean fill volume is µ = 2.0 liters. A quality control manager obtains a random sample of 50 bottles. He will shut down the machine if the sample of these 50 bottles is less than 1.95 or greater than 2.1. What is the probability that the quality control manager will shut down the machine?

Answer:

The probability that the quality control manager will shut down the machine is 0.0002.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a machine is used to fill Apple Juice bottles with juice. The machine has a known standard deviation of σ = 0.05 liters. The target mean fill volume is µ = 2.0 liters.

A quality control manager obtains a random sample of 50 bottles. He will shut down the machine if the sample of these 50 bottles is less than 1.95 or greater than 2.1.

<u><em>Let </em></u>\bar X<u><em> = sample mean fill volume</em></u>

The z score probability distribution for sample mean is given by;

                               Z  = \frac{\bar X-\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }  ~ N(0,1)

where, \mu = population mean fill volume = 2 liters

           \sigma = standard deviation = 0.05 liters

           n = sample of bottles = 50

Now, it is provided that he will shut down the machine if the sample of these 50 bottles is less than 1.95 or greater than 2.1.

  • So, Probability that the sample of these 50 bottles is less than 1.95 is given by = P(\bar X < 1.95)

         P(\bar X < 1.95) = P( \frac{\bar X-\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } } < \frac{1.95-2}{\frac{0.05}{\sqrt{50} } } ) = P(Z < -7.07) = 1 - P(Z \leq 7.07)

                                                         = 1 - 0.9999 = 0.0001

  • Probability that the sample of these 50 bottles is greater than 2.1 is given by = P(\bar X > 2.1)

        P(\bar X > 2.1) = P( \frac{\bar X-\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } } > \frac{2.1-2}{\frac{0.05}{\sqrt{50} } } ) = P(Z > 14.14) = 1 - P(Z < 14.14)

                                                     = 1 - 0.9999 = 0.0001

Because the highest critical value in the z table is given as x = 4.40 for area of 0.99999.

Therefore, probability that the quality control manager will shut down the machine = 2 \times 0.0001 = 0.0002.

Given the quadratic equation below, determine which situation it could represent? x2 -4x = 60
yarga [219]

Answer:

The solution is x = 10 and x = -6. This quadratic could be represented in factored form as (x - 10)(x + 6) or on a graph with x-intercepts at (10,0) and (-6,0).

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve the quadratic, write the quadratic in standard form and factor the equation.

x² - 4x = 60

x² - 4x - 60 = 0

(x - 10)(x + 6) = 0

x = 10 and x = -6

Explain pls and thanks
murzikaleks [220]

Starting more simply, if we wanted to know how many students like pink in general, that's 68/100. We could do that for each single category and the fractions would add together to equal 1. Now say we wanted to know something about that 68/100 people. That 68 is our new 100%, or another way of looking at it is if we take however many people like pink and don't like black and those that do like black, they will equal 68/68.

The number of people that like pink but don't like black is 41/68 and those that like pink and black are 27/68. 27+41=68 For the question of your problem it is asking about those that do not like pink which you can tell from the table or use from my saying 68/100 like pink is 32. Now you can split that into those that do or don't like black, and the two results will equal 32/32.

Andru [333]

The answer would be 93 cents divide it by 2 since you want to share with someone and you would have 46 cents and a nickel for both people
