Answer:

75%

88.89%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Mean = 70

Standard deviation = 12

Since the data is said to be extremely skewed, we apply Chebyshev's theorem rather than the empirical rule :

The minimum proportion of observation between 46 and 94

Chebyshev's theorem :

1 - 1 / k²

k = number of standard deviations from the mean

k = (94 - 70) / 12 = 24 / 12 = 2

Hence, we have ;

1 - 1/2²

1 - 1/4

1 - 0.25 = 0.75

Hence, The minimum proportion of observation between 46 and 94 is 75%

Between 36 and 106 :

k = (106 - 70) / 12 ;

k = 36/12 = 3

Hence,

1 - 1/3² = 1 - 1/9 = 8/9 = 0.8888 = 88.89%

The minimum proportion of observation between 34 and 106 is 88.89%

A protein mix claims to contain a bonus of 20% more mix than the usual size container. If the bonus size contains 18 ounces of m
agasfer [191]

Answer:

The usual size of the container is 15 ounces.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

A protein mix claims to contain a bonus of 20% more mix than the usual size container.

Let the usual size of the container was x ounces.

They increase 20% of usual size and the bonus size is 18 ounces.

Therefore, the new size should be:

x+20\%x=18

x(1+0.20)=18 (∴20%=\frac{20}{100}=0.20)

x(1.20)=18

x=\frac{18}{1.20}

x=15

Hence, the usual size of the container is 15 ounces.

A set of composite numbers less than 12 .express it in listing and set builder methods​
marusya05 [52]

Given:

A set of composite numbers less than 12.

To find:

The set by listing and set builder methods​.

Solution:

Composite number: A positive integer is called a composite number if it has at least one divisor other than 1 and itself.

Composite numbers less than 12 are 4, 6, 8, 9, 10.

By using the listing method , the given set can be expression as:

Set = {4, 6, 8, 9, 10}

The numbers 4, 6, 8, 9, 10 are greater than 1, less than 12 and non prime numbers.

By using set builder method, the given set can be expression as:

Set = \{x|x\neq P,1

Therefore, the list and set builder notation of the given set are {4, 6, 8, 9, 10} and \{x|x\neq P,1 respectively.
