A manufacturing company measures the weight of boxes before shipping them to the customers. If the box weights have a population

mean and standard deviation of 90 lb and 24 lb, respectively, then based on a sample size of 36 boxes, what is the probability that the average weight of the boxes will exceed 94 lb?

Answer:

<u>The probability that the average weight of the boxes will exceed 94 pounds  is 43.25%</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let's review the information provided to answer the question correctly:

Mean of the population of box weights = 90 pounds

Standard deviation of the population of box weights = 24 pounds

Sample size = 36 boxes

2. What is the probability that the average weight of the boxes will exceed 94 lb?

For answering this question, we will use the z-scores table.

For using the correct z-score, we should use the correct standard deviation. In this case, we have that:

94 - 90 = 4 pounds above the mean.

4 pounds are 4/24 of the standard deviation,

therefore, simplifying:

4/24 = 1/6 = 0.1666......and we'll round to 0.17

z-score is 0.17 because 4 pounds is 1/6 of the standard deviation (24).

The probability of a z-score is 0.5675, but in this case we're asked by a weight over 94 pounds, not under 94 pounds, thus:

1 - 0.5675 = 0.4325

<u>The probability that the average weight of the boxes will exceed 94 pounds  is 43.25%</u>

Answer:

1/45

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 10 marbles

P ( yellow) = yellow marbles / total = 2/10 = 1/5

We do not replace the marble

There are 9 marbles, 1 of which is yellow

P ( yellow) = yellow marbles / total = 1/9

P ( yellow, no replacement, yellow) = 1/5 * 1/9 = 1/45

The measure of ∠FHJ is 60°. The measure of ∠FGH is 28°.<br><br><br><br> What is the measure of ∠HFG?
Hatshy [7]
<span>Given
∠FHJ = 60°
</span><span>∠FGH =  28°

</span>∠FHG = 180 - ∠FHJ
∠FHG = 180 - 60
∠FHG = 120


∠HFG = 180 - (28 + 120)
∠HFG = 180 - 148
∠HFG = 32

What is the value of x
Mashcka [7]

Answer:

45

Step-by-step explanation:

Together, these two angles form a flat line which is 180 degrees

(x + 7) + (4x - 52) = 180

5x - 45 = 180

    + 45    + 45

5x = 225

x = 45
