Answer:
9 pounds of seed per acre.
Step-by-step explanation:
All you have to do is division. It takes 27 pounds of seed to make 3 acres, so 27 divided by 3. That gives you 9.
Step-by-step explanation:
The events are independent. By definition, it means that knowledge about one event does not help you predict the second, and this is the case: even if you knew that you rolled an even number on the first cube, would you be more or less confident about rolling a six on the second? No.
An example in which two events about rolling cubes are dependent could be something like:
Event A: You roll the first cube
Event B: The second cube returns a higher number than the first one.
In this case, knowledge on event A does change you view on event B (and vice versa): if you know that you rolled a 6 on the first cube you don't want to bet on event B, while if you know that you rolled a 1 on the first cube, you're certain that event B will happen.
Conversely, if you know that event B has happened, you are more likely to think that the first cube rolled a small number, and vice versa.
Answer:
a. 81.5%
Step-by-step explanation:
The z-score for 400 is ...
Z = (X -μ)/σ = (400 -500)/100 = -1
The z-score for 700 is ...
Z = (700 -500)/100 = 2
The empirical rule tells you that 68% of the distribution is within ±1σ of the mean, and 95% is within ±2σ of the mean. Half of that first number is in the range Z = -1 to 0, and half that second number is in the range Z = 0 to +2. So, the probability you want is ...
(1/2)(68%) + (1/2)(95%) = 81.5% . . . . matches choice A
