The average amount of water in randomly selected 16-ounce bottles of water is 16.15 ounces with a standard deviation of 0.45 oun

Answer:

0.0179 = 1.79% probability that the mean of this sample is less than 15.99 ounces of water.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.

Normal probability distribution

When the distribution is normal, we use 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.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$ .

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

In this question, we have that:

$\mu = 16.15, \sigma = 0.45, n = 35, s = \frac{0.45}{\sqrt{35}} = 0.0761$

What is the probability that the mean of this sample is less than 15.99 ounces of water?

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 15.99. So

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

By the Central Limit Theorem

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}$

$Z = \frac{15.99 - 16.15}{0.0761}$

$Z = -2.1$

$Z = -2.1$ has a pvalue of 0.0179

0.0179 = 1.79% probability that the mean of this sample is less than 15.99 ounces of water.

First error is that the legs are a and b so a should be x and b is 6 and c is 10 the second error is at the end they did not take the square root to get x by itself the real answer should be
X^2 +6^2=10^2
X^2+36=100
X^2 =64
X=8

This month Salesperson A made 11% of $67,530. Salesperson B made 8% of $85,740. Who made more commission this month? How much di

laiz [17]

Answer:

Salesman A made $569.1 more commission than salesman B

Step-by-step explanation:

(11/100)*67530= (amount made by salesperson A)

=7428.3

(8/100)*85740= (amount made by salesperson B)

=6859.2

A-B= 569.1

Hope this helps :D

Triangles L M N and L K N are connected at side L N. A line is drawn from point M to point K and intersects side L N at point P.

lesya692 [45]

The true statement is Line MK is the perpendicular bisector of LN and ML is ≅ MN.

<h3>What is perpendicular?</h3>

Perpendicular lines are lines that intersect at a right (90 degrees) angle.

Given:

Δ LMN and Δ LKN are connected at side LN.

As per the information,

Line MK is the perpendicular bisector of LN. and ML ≅ MN.

#20 four times the sum of number. and 15 is a least20. Let X represent the number. :find ball possible values for X

gayaneshka [121]

For this case what we have to take into account is the following variable:
x = represent the unknown number
We now write the following inequality:
"four times the sum of number and 15 is at least 20"
4 (x + 15)> = 20
We clear the value of x:
(x + 15)> = 20/4
(x + 15)> = 5
x> = 5 - 15
x> = - 10
The solution set is:
[-10, inf)
Answer:
all possible values for X are:
[-10, inf)
