Answer:

b. 0.0228

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

n=40

Mean,\mu=402.7 g

Standard deviation, \sigma=8.8g

We have to find the probability hat the mean weight for a sample of 40 summer squash exceeds 405.5 grams.

P(x>405.5)=P(\frac{x-\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}>\frac{405.5-402.7}{\frac{8.8}{\sqrt{40}}})

P(x>405.5)=P(Z>\frac{2.8}{\frac{8.8}{\sqrt{40}}})

P(x>405.5)=P(Z>2.01)

P(x>405.5)=1-P(Z\leq 2.01)

P(x>405.5)=1-0.977784

P(x>405.5)=0.022216

Hence, option b is correct.

A hiker climbs a 5-mile trail up a mountain in 2 hours. On the return trip downhill, she walks the same trail and returns to her
Ivahew [28]

Answer:

3.33 miles per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

The total distance traveled by the hiker is 5 * 2 = 10 miles, and the total time travelled is 2 + 1 = 3 hours.

So, to find the average speed of the entire trip, we can use the formula:

distance = speed * time

With distance = 10 and time = 3, we have:

10 = speed * 3

speed = 10/3 = 3.33 miles per hour.

Which proportion could be used to solve
Brums [2.3K]

Answer:

Cups of carrot needed for 9 servings = 4.5 cups

Step-by-step explanation:

A recipe for sesame chicken calls for cup of chopped carrots

recipe 2 is for 4 servings

That is

2 cups of carrot = 4 servings

2 : 4

= 1 : 2

1 cup of carrot = 2 servings

how many cups of

carrots are needed for 9 servings?

Let x= number of carrot needed for 9 servings

1 : 2 = x : 9

1 /2 = x/ 9

Cross product

1*9 = 2*x

9=2x

Divide both sides by 2

9/2 = x

x= 4.5 Or 4 1/2
