Answer:
Probability that the sample mean would be greater than 141.4 millimetres is 0.3594.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that Thompson and Thompson is a steel bolts manufacturing company. Their current steel bolts have a mean diameter of 141 millimetres, and a standard deviation of 7.
A random sample of 39 steel bolts is selected.
Let = <u><em>sample mean diameter</em></u>
The z score probability distribution for sample mean is given by;
Z = ~ N(0,1)
where, = population mean diameter = 141 millimetres
= standard deviation = 7 millimetres
n = sample of steel bolts = 39
Now, Percentage the sample mean would be greater than 141.4 millimetres is given by = P( > 141.4 millimetres)
P( > 141.4) = P(
>
) = P(Z > 0.36) = 1 - P(Z
0.36)
= 1 - 0.6406 = <u>0.3594</u>
The above probability is calculated by looking at the value of x = 0.36 in the z table which has an area of 0.6406.
Answer:
cups
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: A baker is using a cookie that calls for 2 cups of flour to yield 36 cookies.
To find the number of flour will the baker need to make 90 cookies, we form a proportion.
Let's convert 2 to improper fraction.
Let "x" be the amount flour to make 90 cookies
<u>Amount of Flour</u> <u>Number of cookies</u>
36
x 90
Now form a proportion.
Now let's cross multiply, we get
Now let's simplify the fraction part, Here the GCF of 90 and 144 is 18, so dividing the fraction's numerator and the denominator by 18, we get
x = cups
So the baker needs cups to make 90 cookies.
