A radiator contains 10 quarts of fluid, 30% of which is antifreeze. How much fluid should be drained and replaced with pure anti

freeze so that the new mixture is 40% antifreeze?

Answer:

1 3/7 quarts should be drained off and replaced with pure antifreeze.

1 3/7 ≈ 1.4286

Current amount of antifreeze in quarts is -

30/ 100 × 10 = 3

40% ---> 4 quarts

Let the amount drained of and replaced with antifreeze be x-

The amount left after draining off is 10 − x.

The amount of antifreeze  is 30/ 100 (10−x).

30/100(10-x)+x=4

3-3/10x+x=4

3+x(1-3/10)=4

x=1*10/7=1 3/7 quarts

check;

10- 1 3/7 = 8 4/7

=(30/100*8 4/7)+1 3/7

=(3/10 * 60/7) + 10/7

=3*6/7 + 10/7

=28/7

=4

4 liters of pure antifreeze is mixed into 10 quarts.

The body temperatures of adults are normally distributed with a mean of 98.6degrees° F and a standard deviation of 0.60degrees°
Schach [20]

Answer:

97.72% probability that their mean body temperature is greater than 98.4degrees° F.

Step-by-step explanation:

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

Normal probability distribution:

Problems of normally distributed samples can be solved using 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 random variable X, with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the sample means with size n of at least 30 can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean \mu and standard deviation s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

In this problem, we have that:

\mu = 98.6, \sigma = 0.6, n = 36, s = \frac{0.6}{\sqrt{36}} = 0.1

If 36 adults are randomly​ selected, find the probability that their mean body temperature is greater than 98.4degrees° F.

This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 98.4. So

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

By the Central Limit Theorem

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

Z = \frac{98.4 - 98.6}{0.1}

Z = -2

Z = -2 has a pvalue of 0.0228

1 - 0.0228 = 0.9772

97.72% probability that their mean body temperature is greater than 98.4degrees° F.
