Consumer products are required by law to contain at least as much as the amount printed on the package. For example, a bag of po

tato chips that is labeled as 10 ounces should contain at least 10 ounces.Assume that the standard deviation of the packaging equipment yields a bag weight standard deviation of 0.2 ounces. Assume the bag weight distribution is bell-shaped. Determine what average bag weight must be used to achieve at least 99 percent of the bags having 10 or more ounces in the bag.

Answer:

The average bag weight must be used to achieve at least 99 percent of the bags having 10 or more ounces in the bag=9.802

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

Standard deviation, \sigma=0.2ounces

We have to find the average bag weight must be used to achieve at least 99 percent of the bags having 10 or more ounces in the bag.

P(x\geq 10)=0.99

Assume the bag weight distribution is bell-shaped

Therefore,

P(\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}\geq 10)=0.99

We know that

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

Using the value of z

Now,

\frac{10-\mu}{0.2}=0.99

10-\mu=0.99\times 0.2

\mu=10-0.99\times 0.2

\mu=9.802

Hence, the average bag weight must be used to achieve at least 99 percent of the bags having 10 or more ounces in the bag=9.802

Sophia had 64¢ until she spent 1 quarter. How much money does Sophia have now?
aleksklad [387]

Answer:

Sophia now has 39 cents.

Step-by-step explanation:

One quarter = 25 cents

Since Sophia had 64 cents until she spent 25 cents (1 quarter).

So we subtract 25 cents from 64 cents.

\:  \:  \: 64 \: cents \\  \frac{ - 25 \: cents}{ \:  \:  \: 39 \: cents}

Therefore, Sophia now has 39 cents.
