ex. 4321= 4.321 x 10^3
7.5 %
Step-by-step explanation:
We by finding how far from the mean the 999 volume caps are, using z score;
Z = (x – μ) / σ
Z = (999 – 998) / 7
Z = 0.143
We use the z-table to find the confidence levels;
= 85%
= 0.85
Since we are finding proportion of bottles have volumes greater than 999
mL;
1 – .85 = .15
0.15/2 = 0.075
= 7.5%
<u>Answer-</u>
<em>The total amount of water wasted this year is 6716 gallons.</em>
<u>Solution-</u>
A study indicated that the citizens of Morris-town wasted 5840 gallons of water last year.
This year they wasted 15% more than that amount they wasted previous year.
15% of 5840 is,

The total amount of water wasted this year =
The amount of water wasted previous year + 15% more of the amount of that
= 5840 + 876
= 6716 gallons
Therefore, the total amount of water wasted this year is 6716 gallons
