Answer:
the probability that all tomatoes are sold is 0.919 (91.9%)
Step-by-step explanation:
since the random variable X= number of tomatoes that are demanded, is normally distributed we can make the standard random variable Z such that:
Z=(X-μ)/σ = (83 - 125)/30 = -1.4
where μ= expected value of X= mean of X (since X is normally distributed) , σ=standard deviation of X
then all tomatoes are sold if the demand surpasses 83 tomatos , therefore
P(X>83) = P(Z>-1.4) = 1- P(Z≤-1.4)
from tables of standard normal distribution →P(Z≤-1.4)=0.081 , therefore
P(X>83) = 1- P(Z≤-1.4) = 1 - 0.081 = 0.919 (91.9%)
thus the probability that all tomatoes are sold is 0.919 (91.9%)
Answer:
4:10 and 6:15 are equivalent to 2:5
If you have a calculator with statistical functions, that's the way to go.
On my TI-83, I typed in invNorm(0.88) and got the result z = 1.17.
88% of the area under the normal curve is to the left of z = 1.17.
The answer would be A. because two negatives equal a positive
