Answer:
x=9
Step-by-step explanation:
- -54 + 6x = 6 • (x - 9)
- Solve : 6 = 0
- Solve : x-9 = 0
- Add 9 to both sides of the equation : x = 9
Answer: P(22 ≤ x ≤ 29) = 0.703
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the machine's output is normally distributed, we would apply the formula for normal distribution which is expressed as
z = (x - µ)/σ
Where
x = output of the machine in ounces per cup.
µ = mean output
σ = standard deviation
From the information given,
µ = 27
σ = 3
The probability of filling a cup between 22 and 29 ounces is expressed as
P(22 ≤ x ≤ 29)
For x = 22,
z = (22 - 27)/3 = - 1.67
Looking at the normal distribution table, the probability corresponding to the z score is 0.047
For x = 29,
z = (29 - 27)/3 = 0.67
Looking at the normal distribution table, the probability corresponding to the z score is 0.75
Therefore,
P(22 ≤ x ≤ 29) = 0.75 - 0.047 = 0.703
