Step-by-step explanation:
(a)
the probability of parcels weighing 35oz or less is
0.841
the probability of parcels weighing 14oz or less is
0.023
the probability of parcels weighing between 14 and 35oz is the probabilty of 35oz minus the probability of 14oz
0.841 - 0.023 = 0.818
the percentage is the probability × 100 = 81.8%
(b)
the probability of parcels weighing more than 49oz is 1 minus the probability to weigh less than 49oz.
the probability to weigh less than 49oz is
0.99865
so, the probability to weigh more than 49oz is
1 - 0.99865 = 0.00135
the percentage is again probability×100 = 0.14%
Answer:
1, 5, 7, and 35. It is composite.
Step-by-step explanation:
The sequence is geometric, so

for some constant r. From this rule, it follows that

and we can determine the first term to be

Now, by substitution we have

and so on down to (D)

(notice how the exponent on r and the subscript on a add up to n)
