The answer is B, you will need at least 6 spring roll wrapper packages.

The way you get the answer is by turning the word problem into an expression. You can make this into the fraction (17*6+15*3)/(25). 17 is the number of adults and you multiply this by how many spring rolls Jill wants to give each adult, which is 6, you can do the same for the children. Next the denominator is 25 which represents the amount of spring roll wrappers per each package. When you simplify the answer comes around to 5.88, but since you cant buy 88% of a spring role wrap package you have to buy another whole one, which makes the answer six.

Lengths of full-term babies in the US are Normally distributed with a mean length of 20.5 inches and a standard deviation of 0.9

mash [69]

Answer:

66.48% of full-term babies are between 19 and 21 inches long at birth

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Probability Distribution:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the z-score 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 p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Mean length of 20.5 inches and a standard deviation of 0.90 inches.

This means that $\mu = 20.5, \sigma = 0.9$
