The weight of a small Starbucks coffee is a normally distributed random variable with a mean of 330 grams and a standard deviati

just olya [345]

Answer:

Weights of at least 340.1 are in the highest 20%.

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:

$\mu = 330, \sigma = 12$

a. Highest 20 percent

At least X

100-20 = 80

So X is the 80th percentile, which is X when Z has a pvalue of 0.8. So X when Z = 0.842.

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

$0.842 = \frac{X - 330}{12}$

$X - 330 = 12*0.842$

$X = 340.1$

Weights of at least 340.1 are in the highest 20%.

What is the solution to the equation One-third (x minus 2) = one-fifth (x + 4) + 2? x = 12 x = 14 x = 16 x = 26

Elena L [17]

Answer:

x = 26

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$\frac{1}{3}$ (x - 2) = $\frac{1}{5}$ (x + 4) + 2

Multiply through by 15 to clear the fractions

5(x - 2) =3(x + 4) + 30 ← distribute and simplify both sides

5x - 10 = 3x + 12 + 30, that is

5x - 10 = 3x + 42 ( subtract 3x from both sides )

2x - 10 = 42 ( add 10 to both sides )

2x = 52 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 26

In a recent study on world happiness, participants were asked to evaluate their current lives on a scale from 0 to 10, where 0

uysha [10]

Answer:

a) A response of 8.9 represents the 92nd percentile.

b) A response of 6.6 represents the 62nd percentile.

c) A response of 4.4 represents the first quartile.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

Mean, μ = 5.9

Standard Deviation, σ = 2.2

We assume that the distribution of response is a bell shaped distribution that is a normal distribution.

Formula:

$z_{score} = \displaystyle\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}$

a) We have to find the value of x such that the probability is 0.92

P(X < x)

$P( X < x) = P( z < \displaystyle\frac{x - 5.9}{2.2})=0.92$

Calculation the value from standard normal z table, we have,

$P(z$

$\displaystyle\frac{x - 5.9}{2.2} = 1.405\\x = 8.991 \approx 8.9$

A response of 8.9 represents the 92nd percentile.

b) We have to find the value of x such that the probability is 0.62

P(X < x)

$P( X < x) = P( z < \displaystyle\frac{x - 5.9}{2.2})=0.62$

Calculation the value from standard normal z table, we have,

$P(z$

$\displaystyle\frac{x - 5.9}{2.2} = 0.305\\x = 6.571 \approx 6.6$

A response of 6.6 represents the 62nd percentile.

c) We have to find the value of x such that the probability is 0.25

P(X < x)

$P( X < x) = P( z < \displaystyle\frac{x - 5.9}{2.2})=0.25$

Calculation the value from standard normal z table, we have,

$P(z$

$\displaystyle\frac{x - 5.9}{2.2} = -0.674\\x = 4.4172 \approx 4.4$

A response of 4.4 represents the first quartile.

I need to double check a answer. For measure 1 and 3 I got 117, is that right? But for measure 2 I got 63 which is wrong but I h

cupoosta [38]

Answer:

All are 63

Step-by-step explanation:

m∠1 = 180 - 117 = 63 (linear pair)

m∠2 = 63 (alternate interior angle with ∠1)

m∠3 = m∠1 = 63 (isosceles triangle property)

Hope it helps :)

you plant 15 tulip bulbs and 10 of them grow into flowers to bloom. If you plant 21 more re tulips bulbs, predict how many of th

harina [27]

Answer:

14 more flower would bloom if 21 more tulip bulb is planted.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given ratio for tulip bulbs and flowers is 15:10.

Now, finding number of flower to bloom if 21 tulip bulb are planted.

Assume if 21 tulip bulbs are planted then number of flower would bloom be"x"

ratio given: $\frac{Tulip\ bulbs}{ Flower} = \frac{15}{10} = \frac{21}{x}$

Cross multiplying the ratio to get:

⇒x= $\frac{21\times 10}{15} = \frac{210}{15}$

∴ $x= 14\ flowers$

Hence, 14 flowers would bloom if 21 tulip bulb are planted.

If total tulip bulb is $15+21= 36$ , then $10+14= 24\ flowers$ would bloom.
