The weights of adobe bricks used for construction are normally distributed with a mean of 3 pounds and a standard deviation of 0

.25 pound. Assume that the weights of the bricks are independent and that a random sample of 28 bricks is selected. Round your answers to four decimal places (e.g. 98.7654). (a) What is the probability that all the bricks in the sample exceed 2.75 pounds? (b) What is the probability that the heaviest brick in the sample exceeds 3.75 pounds?

Answer:  a) 0.8413, b) 0.9987.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Mean = 3 pounds

Standard deviation = 0.25 pounds

n = 28 bricks

So, (a) What is the probability that all the bricks in the sample exceed 2.75 pounds?

P(X>2.75)\\\\=P(z>\dfrac{2.75-3}{0.25}\\\\=P(z>\dfrac{-0.25}{0.25})\\\\=P(z>-1)\\\\=0.8413

b) What is the probability that the heaviest brick in the sample exceeds 3.75 pounds?

P(X>3.75)\\\\=P(z>\dfrac{3.75-3}{0.25})\\\\=P(z>\dfrac{0.75}{0.25})\\\\=P(z>3)\\\\=0.9987

Hence, a) 0.8413, b) 0.9987.

Question o
taurus [48]

The equation -21t - 4 = 10 - 2t has only one solution

<u>Solution:</u>

Given, equation is – 21t – 4 = 10 – 2t  

We have to find how many solutions does the above given equation have  

Now, let us solve the given equation to find the number of solutions it has.

Then, - 21t – 4 = 10 – 2t

Taking like terms to one side of the equation we get,

- 21t + 2t = 10 + 4  

\begin{array}{l}{-19 t=14} \\\\ {19 t=-14} \\\\ {t=-\frac{14}{19}}\end{array}

here we can see only one value of t.

Hence, the given equation has only one solution.
