If you bought a stock last year for a price of $77, and it has risen 17.9% since then, how much is the stock worth now

the area of a triangle is 124 square units. what would it's new area be if its base was half as long and its height was three ti

Montano1993 [528]

To solve this problem you must apply the proccedure shown below:

1. You have that the formula for calculate the area of a triangle is:

A=bh/2

Where A is the area of the triangle, b is the base of the triangle and h is the height of the triangle.

bh/2=124
bh=124x2
bh=248

2. The problem asks for the new area of the triangle if its base was half as long and its height was three times as long. Then, you have:

Base=b/2
Height=3h

3. Therefore, when you substitute this into the formula for calculate the area of a triangle, you obtain:

A'=bh/2

(A' is the new area)

A'=(b/2)(3)/2
A'=3bh/4

4. When you substitute bh=248 into A'=3bh/4, you obtain:

A'=186 units²

The answer is: 186 units²

A grocery store recently changed their apple supplying vendor. The vendor told the store manager that the mean weight for each a

yarga [219]

Answer:

b) 0.0042495

c) 0.048021

Hence, the probability of the mean weight that the 10 apples exceeds 8.2 ounces of this customer wil be higher than the last customer in part b because the number of random samples in part b is greater that that in part c

Step-by-step explanation:

mean of 7.5 ounces and a standard deviation of 1.33 ounce

When random number of samples are given, we solve using z score with the formula

= z = (x-μ)/σ/√n, where

x is the raw score

μ is the population mean

σ is the population standard deviation.

n is the random number of samples

(a) One customer comes to this grocery store and randomly picks 25 apples. What is the mean and standard deviation of the distribution of the mean weight for 25 apples?

(b) What is the probability that the mean weight of 25 apples exceeds 8.2 ounces?

x > 8.2 ounces

= z = (x - μ)/σ/√n

z = (8.2 - 7.5)/1.33/√25

z = (8.2 - 7.5)/1.33/5

z = 2.63158

Probability value from Z-Table:

P(x<8.2) = 0.99575

P(x>8.2) = 1 - P(x<8.2) = 0.0042495

(c) Another customer randomly picks 10 apples. Will the probability of the mean weight that the 10 apples exceeds 8.2 ounces of this customer be higher than the last customer in part b?

For n= 10

x > 8.2 ounces

= z = (x - μ)/σ/√n

z = (8.2 - 7.5)/1.33/√10

z = 1.66436

Probability value from Z-Table:

P(x<8.2) = 0.95198

P(x>8.2) = 1 - P(x<8.2) = 0.048021

Hence, the probability of the mean weight that the 10 apples exceeds 8.2 ounces of this customer wil be higher than the last customer in part b because the number of random samples in part b is greater that that in part c
