Answer:

78.81%

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given;

Population mean; μ = 149

Sample mean; x¯ = 147.8

Sample size; n = 88

standard deviation; σ = 14

Z-score is;

z = (x¯ - μ)/(σ/√n)

Plugging in the relevant values;

z = (147.8 - 149)/(14/√88)

z = -0.804

From z-distribution table attached, we have; p = 0.21186

P(X > 147.8) = 1 - 0.21186 = 0.78814

In percentage gives; p = 78.81%

John Hay, George W. Goethals,and William C. Gorgas were all involved in
Ede4ka [16]

 John Frank Stevens, William C Gorgas and George Washington Goethals 1914 (opened)The building of the 50-mile-long Panama Canal was a collosal project, joining together the Pacific and Atlantic oceans by digging away 240 million metric tons of earth through the Isthmus of Panama. Almost as big a project was sanitising the area around the canal, which was mosquito infested and home to serious diseases like Malaria and Yellow Fever.
<span> In 1907 President Roosevelt appointed George Washington Goethals, a military engineer, as head of the project, and under his leadership the canal was finally completed in 1914, two years ahead of the 1916 target. Of benefit to the whole world, the achievement of the Panama Canal signalled American dominance in project management and engineering like no other project of the day.</span>

Imagine that you have a very large barrel that contains tens of thousands of M&amp;M's. According to the official M&amp;M websit
Finger [1]

Answer:

(A)20%, 20%, 20%, 20%, 20%

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told that 20% of the M&M's produced by the Mars Corporation are Orange in color. If 5 students take a random sample of 50 M&M's, the most plausible percentage of orange candies that will be obtained is:

20%, 20%, 20%, 20%, 20%

This is as a result of the fact that in research experiments, a sample is a representation of the whole. Any result which holds for a random sample should hold for the total population and vice versa.

Which expression is equivalent to 15 n=10 (n+3/n)?
Karolina [17]

Answer:

±√6

Step-by-step explanation:

15n=10(n+\frac{3}{n} ) is your expression first muiltiply out the 10 to get 15n= 10n+10 3/n next subtract  10 n from both sides to get 5n=10+3/n multiply both sides by n to get 5n^2=13 combine both sides and use the quadratic equation to solve to get your solution of ±√6
