A production process fills containers by weight. Weights of containers are approximately normally distributed. Historically, the

standard deviation of weights is 5.5 ounces. (This standard deviation is therefore known.) A quality control expert selects n containers at random. How large a sample would be required in order for the 99% confidence interval for to have a length of 2 ounces?
a. n  15
b. n  16
c. n  201
d. n  226

Answer:

option (c) n = 201

Step-by-step explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Standard deviation, s = 5.5 ounce

Confidence level = 99%

Length of confidence interval = 2 ounces

Therefore,

margin of error, E = (Length of confidence interval ) ÷ 2

= 2 ÷ 2

= 1 ounce

Now,

E = \frac{zs}{\sqrt n}

here,

z = 2.58 for 99% confidence interval

n = sample size

thus,

1 = \frac{2.58\times5.5}{\sqrt n}

or

n = (2.58 × 5.5)²

or

n = 201.3561 ≈ 201

Hence,

option (c) n = 201

Round 11,900 to the nearest thousand.<br><br> 5 stars for a correct answer.
Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer:

12,000

Step-by-step explanation:

The two thousands that 11,900 is in between are 11,000 and 12,000 which are our two options to choose from. 11,900 is only 100 away from 12,000 and 900 away from 11,000. Because the distance between 11,900 and 12,000 is shorter than the distance between 11,900 and 11,000, this means that 12,000 would be our answer since it is closer.

(I'm really sorry if this is confusing, I'm not good with words)

Area of circle with diameter of 1 m?
Elena-2011 [213]

Answer:

A = 0.785m²

B = 31400cm²

C = 7850cm²

D = 785,000mm²

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we'll have to find the area of a circle which is

Area of a circle = πr²

1. The diameter of the circle = 1m

Area of a circle = πr²

r = radius of the circle

π = 3.14

Radius = diameter / 2

Radius = 1 / 2 = 0.5m

Area = 3.14 × (0.5)²

Area = 3.14 × 0.25

Area = 0.785m²

2. Radius = 100cm

Area of a circle = πr²

Area = 3.14 × (100)²

Area = 3.14 × 10000

Area = 31400cm²

3. Diameter = 100cm

Area = πr²

Radius = diameter / 2

Radius = 100 / 2

Radius = 50cm

Area = πr²

Area = 3.14 × (50)²

Area = 3.14 × 2500

Area = 7850cm²

4. Radius = 500mm

Area = πr²

Area = 3.14 × (500)²

Area = 3.14 × 250,000

Area = 785,000mm²
