Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount of soil contained in each small bag is 2 2/3 cubic inches. We would convert from mixed number to improper fraction. It becomes 8/3 cubic inches.

The volume of the flower pot to be filled is 9 cubic-inches. It means that the number of bags of soil that is required to fill the flower pot would be

9 ÷ 8/3 = 9 × 3/8 = 27/8 bags

Converting to decimal, it becomes 3.375 bags

This is approximately 4 bags of soil

Answer:

3.375 bags of soil are needed for Paj to fill the flower pot

Step-by-step explanation:

This question can be solved using a rule of three.

One bag contains 2 + (2/3) = (8/3) cubic inches of soil. How many bags are needed to fill 9 cubic inches of soil?

1 bag - (8/3) cubic inches

x bags - 9 cubic inches

\frac{8x}{3} = 9

8x = 27

x = \frac{27}{8}

x = 3.375

3.375 bags of soil are needed for Paj to fill the flower pot

the average number of chocolate chips in a particular brand of chocolate chip chewy cookie is 19. the standard deviation is 2.6.
zzz [600]

The probability illustrated shows that the

percent of cookies would have between 13.8 and 24.2 chips is 95.44%.

<h3>How to calculate the probability?</h3>

It is important to note that the requirement to solve the probability between z-values is to know that the probability between the z-values is the difference between the probability of the greatest z-value and the lowest z-value.

This will be illustrated thus:

Z value for 13.8, z =(13.8-19)/2.6 =-2

Z value for 24.2, z =(24.2-19)/2.6 = 2

P( 13.8<x<24.2) =P(-2<z<2)

=P( z <2 –P(z < -2)

=0.9772 -0.0228

=0.9544

= 95.44%

The percent is 95.44%.
