Greetings.

The answer is x > 24.

Explanation:

Solving Inequality is almost the same as equation. However, you have to know one thing about solving an Inequality.

<em>That is </em><em>whenever you move the negative coefficient of the variable, you have to swap the sign of Inequality.</em>

-\frac{1}{2}x

Reminder that

-\frac{1}{2}x=-\frac{x}{2}

We use negative x above 2 instead (Easier in solving)

-\frac{x}{2}

Then we move 2 to divide -12.

-x

Because the coefficient for x is in negative. We move -1 to divide -24 as we get 24 (Because negative divide negative = positive)

But remember that "<em>whenever you move the negative coefficient of the variable, you have to swap the sign of Inequality."</em>

So we change from < to > instead.

x>24

9. Gold miners in Alaska have found, on average, 12 ounces of gold per 1000 tons of dirt excavated with a standard deviation of
netineya [11]

Answer:

9.18% probability the miners find more than 16 ounces of gold in the next 1000 tons of dirt excavated

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this problem, we have that:

\mu = 12, \sigma = 3

What is the probability the miners find more than 16 ounces of gold in the next 1000 tons of dirt excavated?

This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 16. So

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{16 - 12}{3}

Z = 1.33

Z = 1.33 has a pvalue of 0.9082

1 - 0.9082 = 0.0918

9.18% probability the miners find more than 16 ounces of gold in the next 1000 tons of dirt excavated
