Answer:

4.464 ml

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

mean (μ) = 5 mm, standard deviation (σ) = 0.4 ml

The z score is a score in statistics used to determine by how many standard deviation the raw score is above or below the mean. If the z score is positive then the raw score is above the mean and if the z score is negative then the raw score is below the mean It is given by:

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

From the normal distribution table, the 9th percentile (0.09) corresponds to a z score of -1.34

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}\\\\-1.34=\frac{x-5}{0.4}\\\\x-5=-0.536\\\\x=5-0.536\\\\x=4.464

The dye amount that represents the 9th percentile of the distribution is 4.464 ml

If m and n can be any integers such that n&lt;4 and 4m - 3n &lt; 20, which of following is the solution set for m?A m &lt;7.25B
soldier1979 [14.2K]

If we multiply the inequality n<4 by 3 we get the following:

(n

Now, on the next inequality we have the following:

\begin{gathered} 4m-3n

By transitive property, we have:

\begin{gathered} 3n

therefore, the solution set for m is m<8

The quartiles of any distribution are the values with cumulative proportions 0.25 and 0.75. What are the quartiles of the standa
choli [55]
\mathbb P(X\le Q_1)=F_X(Q_1)=0.25\implies Q_1={F_X}^{-1}(0.25)\approx-0.6745

where F_X(x) is the CDF for X\sim\mathcal N(0,1).

By symmetry of the distribution, you then have

Q_3=-Q_1\approx0.6745
