Question

The bottom of a cylindrical container has an area of 10 cm². The container is filled to a height whose mean is 5 cm, and whose standard deviation is 0.3 cm. Let V denote the volume of fluid in the container.
Find μv and σv.

Answer 1

Answer:

μv =$50 cm^{3}$

σv= $3 cm^{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume is found by multiplying the area and height. Since we're given both area and height of 10 and 5 cm respectively then

μv =A.h= 10*5= 50 cm^{3}

The standard deviation of the volume will be

σv= 0.3*10= $3 cm^{3}$
