Answer:
μ = 5.068 oz
Step-by-step explanation:
Normal distribution formula to use the table attached
Z = (x - μ)/σ
where μ is mean, σ is standard deviation, Z is on x-axis and x is a desired point.
98% of 6-oz. cups will not overflow means that the area below the curve is equal to 0.49; note that the curve is symmetrical respect zero, so, 98% of the cases relied between the interval (μ - some value) and (μ + some value)].
From table attached, area = 0.49 when Z = 2.33. From data, σ = 0.4 oz and x = 6 oz (maximum capacity of the cup). Isolating x from the formula gives
Z = (x - μ)/σ
2.33 = (6 - μ)/0.4
μ = 6 - 2.33*0.4
μ = 5.068
This means that with a mean of 5 oz and a standard deviation of 0.4 oz, the machine will discharge a maximum of 6 oz in the 98% of the cases.
Answer:
a) 3/5 < 4/5
b) In general if two fractions have the same denominator, then whichever fraction has the numerator closer to its denominator will be the largest fraction.
c) <em>or</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
a) 3/5 < 4/5
Flip the sign and the placement of the fraction so 3/5 is less then 4/5.
b) In general if two fractions have the same denominator, then whichever fraction has the numerator closer to its denominator will be the largest fraction.
c) We need to change the denominators to a common denominator to compare the size of the two fractions:
×
=
×
=
The common denominators of the two fractions is 30. Comparing the two fractions:
<em>or</em>
so we get: <em>or</em>
