Answer:

(a) 13 ounces.

(b) 1.732 ounces.

(c) 0.5

(d) 0.33

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The amount of water dispensed follows a continuous uniform distribution from 10 ounces to 16 ounces. So, a=10 and b=16.

(a)  The average amount of water dispensed by the machine = (a+b)/2 = (10+16)/2 = 13 ounces.

(b)  The standard deviation of the amount of water dispensed = \int\limits^a_b {\frac{(b-a)^{2} }{12} } \, dx \\ = √36/12 =√3 = 1.732 ounces.

(c) P (13 or more ounces will be dispensed in a given glass) = \int\limits^a_b {f(x)} \, dx = \int\limits^b_a {\frac{dx}{b-a} } \, dx = 0.5

(d) P (between 12 and 14 ounces will be dispensed in a given glass) = ( here a=12 and b=14.) \int\limits^a_b {f(x)} \, dx = \int\limits^b_a {\frac{dx}{b-a} } \, dx = 0.33

kirill115 [55]

Answer:

25%

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use a proportion to answer this question:

64 represent the 100% of the games

so:

x : 100 = 16 : 64

x = (16*100)/64 = 1600/64 = 25%
