The amounts of nicotine in a certain brand of cigarette are normally distributed with a mean of 0.917 g and a standard deviation

of 0.303 g. The company that produces these cigarettes claims that it has now reduced the amount of nicotine. The supporting evidence consists of a sample of 37 cigarettes with a mean nicotine amount of 0.872 g. Assuming that the given mean and standard deviation have NOT changed, find the probability of randomly seleting 37 cigarettes with a mean of 0.872 g or less.

Answer:

z = \frac{0.872-0.917}{\frac{0.303}{\sqrt{37}}}= -0.903

And we can find this probability to find the answer:

P(z

And using the normal standar table or excel we got:

P(z

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X the random variable that represent the amounts of nocatine of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

X \sim N(0.917,0.303)  

Where \mu=0.917 and \sigma=0.303

We have the following info from a sample of n =37:

\bar X= 0.872 the sample mean

And we want to find the following probability:

P(\bar X \leq 0.872)

And we can use the z score formula given by;

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

And if we find the z score for the value of 0.872 we got:

z = \frac{0.872-0.917}{\frac{0.303}{\sqrt{37}}}= -0.903

And we can find this probability to find the answer:

P(z

And using the normal standar table or excel we got:

P(z

What’s the measure of A?
Mekhanik [1.2K]

Answer: x = 11

Step-by-step explanation:

Complementary angles = 90*

Set the two equations equal to 90. Solve

4x + 6 + 4x - 4 = 90

8x +2 = 90

8x = 88

x = 11

Plug it in to see if it makes equation true

4 (11) + 6 + 4 (11) - 4 = 90

44 + 6 + 44 - 4 = 90

50 + 40 = 90

90 = 90
