A potato chip manufacturer produces bags of potato chips that are supposed to have a net weight of 326 grams. Because the chips

vary in size, it is difficult to fill the bags to the exact weight desired. However, the bags pass inspection so long as the standard deviation of their weights is no more than 3 grams. A quality control inspector wished to test the claim that one batch of bags has a standard deviation of more than 3 grams, and thus does not pass inspection. If a sample of 21 bags of potato chips is taken and the standard deviation is found to be 4.1 grams, does this evidence, at the 0.025 level of significance, support the claim that the bags should fail inspection

When we take data at work, we always do it over a period of time. To me, just one sample set does not show enough data to come to that conclusion. Also it is one batch of bags. I think you would need to have an average of data from different batches & samples to prove your data is accurate and support your claim.

Abby, Bernardo, Carl, and Debra play a game in which each of them starts with four coins. The game consists of four rounds. In e
Sedaia [141]

The probability that, at the tip of the fourth round, each of the players has four coins is 5/192.

Given that game consists of 4 rounds and every round, four balls are placed in an urn one green, one red, and two white.

It amounts to filling in an exceedingly 4×4 matrix. Columns C₁-C₄ are random draws each round; row of every player.

Also, let \%R_{A} be the quantity of nonzero elements in R_{A}.

Let C_{1}=\left(\begin{array}{l}1\\ -1\\ 0\\ 0\end{array}\right).

Parity demands that \%R_{A} and\%R_{B} must equal 2 or 4.

Case 1: \%R_{A}=4 and \%R_B=4. There are \left(\begin{array}{l}3\\ 2\end{array}\right)=3 ways to put 2-1's in R_A, so there are 3 ways.

Case 2: \%R_{A}=2 and \%R_B=4. There are 3 ways to position the -1 in R_A, 2 ways to put the remaining -1 in R_B (just don't put it under the -1 on top of it!), and a pair of ways for one among the opposite two players to draw the green ball. (We know it's green because Bernardo drew the red one.) we are able to just double to hide the case of \%R_{A}=4,\%R_{B}=2 for a complete of 24 ways.

Case 3: \%R_A=\%R_B=2. There are 3 ways to put the -1 in R_{A}. Now, there are two cases on what happens next.

  • The 1 in R_B goes directly under the -1 inR_A. There's obviously 1 way for that to happen. Then, there are 2 ways to permute the 2 pairs of 1,-1 in R_C andR_D. (Either the 1 comes first inR_C or the 1 comes first in R_D.)
  • The 1 in R_B doesn't go directly under the -1 in R_A. There are 2 ways to put the 1, and a couple of ways to try and do the identical permutation as within the above case.

Hence, there are 3(2+2×2)=18 ways for this case. There's a grand total of 45 ways for this to happen, together with 12³ total cases. The probability we're soliciting for is thus 45/(12³)=5/192

Hence, at the top of the fourth round, each of the players has four coins probability is 5/192.

what is the mean of the numbers 5433221 round to the nearest hundredth if necessary. NEED ANSWER ASAP
AURORKA [14]
I can't tell the numbers apart as there are no colours so I did one answer a with them all being one digit numbers and another answer as them being 2 digit numbers...

1 digit:
5 + 4 + 3 + 3 + 2 + 2 +1 = 20
20 ÷ 7 = 2.86
2 digit:
54 + 33 + 22 + 1 = 110
110 ÷ 5 = 22

What is the value of x in the diagram below?
otez555 [7]

The cosine of 30° is √3 / 2.

Since cosine is Adjacent over Hypotenuse, Hypotenuse = (2 / √3) * 9 = 18 / √3.

The cosine of 45° is √2 / 2.

Therefore, X = (2 / √2) * (18 / √3) = 36 / √6 = 18 / √1.5 = C
