Answer:
A. , because probability values cannot be greater than 1.
C. -1.5, because probability values cannot be less than 0.
Step-by-step explanation:
Probability is the extent to which an event is likely to happen. It ranges from 0(impossible) to 1(certain). Probability values can be written in decimal form or in fractional form.
The following numbers could not be used to represent the probability of an event.
A. , because probability values cannot be greater than 1.
C. -1.5, because probability values cannot be less than 0.
Answer:
μ = 5.068 oz
Step-by-step explanation:
Normal distribution formula to use the table attached
Z = (x - μ)/σ
where μ is mean, σ is standard deviation, Z is on x-axis and x is a desired point.
98% of 6-oz. cups will not overflow means that the area below the curve is equal to 0.49; note that the curve is symmetrical respect zero, so, 98% of the cases relied between the interval (μ - some value) and (μ + some value)].
From table attached, area = 0.49 when Z = 2.33. From data, σ = 0.4 oz and x = 6 oz (maximum capacity of the cup). Isolating x from the formula gives
Z = (x - μ)/σ
2.33 = (6 - μ)/0.4
μ = 6 - 2.33*0.4
μ = 5.068
This means that with a mean of 5 oz and a standard deviation of 0.4 oz, the machine will discharge a maximum of 6 oz in the 98% of the cases.
