Soft-drink cans are filled by an automated filling machine and the standard deviation is 0.5 fluid ounces assume that the fill v
evablogger [386]
A.) For n independent variates with the same distribution, the standard deviation of their mean is the standard deviation of an individual divided by the square root of the sample size: i.e. s.d. (mean) = s.d. / sqrt(n)
Therefore, the standard deviation of of the average fill volume of 100 cans is given by 0.5 / sqrt(100) = 0.5 / 10 = 0.05

b.) In a normal distribution, P(X < x) is given by P(z < (x - mean) / s.d).
Thus, P(X < 12) = P(z < (12 - 12.1) / 0.05) = P(z < -2) = 1 - P(z < 2) = 1 - 0.97725 = 0.02275

c.) Let the required mean fill volume be u, then P(X < 12) = P(z < (12 - u) / 0.05) = 1 - P(z < (u - 12) / 0.05) = 0.005
P(z < (u - 12) / 0.05) = 1 - 0.005 = 0.995 = P(z < 2.575)
(u - 12) / 0.05 = 2.575
u - 12 = 2.575 x 0.05 = 0.12875
u = 12 + 0.12875 = 12.12875
Therefore, the mean fill volume should be 12.12875 so that the probability that the average of 100 cans is below 12 fluid ounces be 0.005.

d.) Let the required standard deviation of fill volume be s, then P(X < 12) = P(z < (12 - 12.1) / s) = 1 - P(z < 0.1 / s) = 0.005
P(z < 0.1 / s) = 1 - 0.005 = 0.995 = P(z < 2.575)
0.1 / s = 2.575
s = 0.1 / 2.575 = 0.0388
Therefore, the standard deviation of fill volume should be 0.0388 so that the probability that the average of 100 cans is below 12 fluid ounces be 0.005.

e.) Let the required number of cans be n, then P(X < 12) = P(z < (12 - 12.1) / (0.5/sqrt(n))) = 1 - P(z < (12.1 - 12) / (0.5/sqrt(n))) = 0.01
P(z < 0.1 / (0.5/sqrt(n))) = 1 - 0.01 = 0.99 = P(z < 2.327)
0.1 / (0.5/sqrt(n)) = 2.327
0.5/sqrt(n) = 0.1 / 2.327 = 0.0430
sqrt(n) = 0.5/0.0430 = 11.635
n = 11.635^2 = 135.37
Therefore, the number of cans that need to be measured such that the average fill volume is less than 12 fluid ounces be 0.01

Work out the area of the trapezium ABDE.<br> B<br> 9 cm<br> 6 cm<br> 8 cm<br> →D<br> E
Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

Area of the trapezium ABDE = 30 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a trapezium = \frac{1}{2}(b_1+b_2)h

Here, b_1 and b_2 are the parallel sides of the trapezium

h = Distance between the parallel sides

From the picture attached,

ΔCAE and ΔCBD are the similar triangles.

So by the property of similarity their sides will be proportional.

\frac{AE}{BD}= \frac{CE}{CD}

\frac{9}{6}=\frac{CE}{8}

CE = \frac{9\times 8}{6}

CE = 12 cm

Therefore, DE = CE - CD

DE = 12 - 8 = 4 cm

Now area of trapezium ABDE = \frac{1}{2}(AE+BD)(DE)

                                                  = \frac{1}{2}(6+9)4

                                                  = 30 cm²

Therefore, area of the trapezium ABDE = 30 cm²
