Answer:

0.7392 = 73.92% probability of obtaining a value less than 45 or greater than 49.

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Probability Distribution

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the z-score of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Mean 47 and standard deviation 6

This means that \mu = 47, \sigma = 6

Less than 45:

p-value of Z when X = 45, so:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{45 - 47}{6}

Z = -0.3333

Z = -0.3333 has a p-value of 0.3696.

More than 49:

1 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 49. So

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{49 - 47}{6}

Z = 0.3333

Z = 0.3333 has a p-value of 0.6304.

1 - 0.6304 = 0.3996

Less than 45 or greater than 49:

2*0.3696 = 0.7392

0.7392 = 73.92% probability of obtaining a value less than 45 or greater than 49.

Start by adding 2 to both sides to get 3r^2 = 48. then divide both sides by 3 to get r^2 = 16. square root both sides to get r = 4.

Soup ordinarily priced at 2 cans for .33 cents may be purchased in lots of one dozen for 1.74, what is the savings per a can whe
Sidana [21]

Answer:

Savings per can would be 0.02 cents when purchased in lots.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Ordinary price of soup 2 cans = 0.33 cents.

When purchases in lots 12 cans = 1.74

We need to find the saving per can when purchased in Lots.

Solution:

Ordinary price of soup 2 cans = 0.33 cents.

1 can  = Cost of 1 can when purchased ordinary.

By Using Unitary method we get;

Cost of 1 can when purchased ordinary = \frac{0.33}{2} = 0.165\ cents/can

Now we will find the Cost of 1 can when purchased in lot.

12 cans = 1.74

1 can = Cost of 1 can when purchase in lot.

Again by using Unitary method we get;

Cost of 1 can when purchase in lot = \frac{1.74}{12} = 0.145\ cents/can

Savings = Cost of 1 can when purchase in lot - Cost of 1 can when purchased ordinary

Savings = 0.165-0.145=0.02\ cents/can

Hence Savings per can would be 0.02 cents when purchased in lots.

Suppose that Fx) = x3 and G(x) = -2x2. Which statement best compares the
Rudiy27

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

you can just find the value of y and try some number of x

i.e. if x = 0, both of them will be 0

x = 1

G(x) result is -2

F(x) result is 1

x= -1

G(x) result will be 2

F(x) result is -1

so from these we can prove that G(x) is bigger graph than F(x) but flip vertically by y axis
