A grocery store recently changed their apple supplying vendor. The vendor told the store manager that the mean weight for each a

pple is bell-shaped with # mean of 7.5 ounces and a standard deviation of 1.33 ounce (a) One customer comes to this grocery store and randomly picks 25 apples. What is the mean and standard deviation of the distribution of the mean weight for 25 apples? (b) What is the probability that the mean weight of 25 apples exceeds 8.2 ounces? (c) Another customer randomly picks 10 apples. Will the probability of the mean weight that the 10 apples exceeds 8.2 ounces of this customer be higher than the last customer in part b? Explain it.

Answer:

b) 0.0042495

c) 0.048021

Hence, the probability of the mean weight that the 10 apples exceeds 8.2 ounces of this customer wil be higher than the last customer in part b because the number of random samples in part b is greater that that in part c

Step-by-step explanation:

mean of 7.5 ounces and a standard deviation of 1.33 ounce

When random number of samples are given, we solve using z score with the formula

= z = (x-μ)/σ/√n, where

x is the raw score

μ is the population mean

σ is the population standard deviation.

n is the random number of samples

(a) One customer comes to this grocery store and randomly picks 25 apples. What is the mean and standard deviation of the distribution of the mean weight for 25 apples?

(b) What is the probability that the mean weight of 25 apples exceeds 8.2 ounces?

x > 8.2 ounces

= z = (x - μ)/σ/√n

z = (8.2 - 7.5)/1.33/√25

z = (8.2 - 7.5)/1.33/5

z = 2.63158

Probability value from Z-Table:

P(x<8.2) = 0.99575

P(x>8.2) = 1 - P(x<8.2) = 0.0042495

(c) Another customer randomly picks 10 apples. Will the probability of the mean weight that the 10 apples exceeds 8.2 ounces of this customer be higher than the last customer in part b?

For n= 10

x > 8.2 ounces

= z = (x - μ)/σ/√n

z = (8.2 - 7.5)/1.33/√10

z = 1.66436

Probability value from Z-Table:

P(x<8.2) = 0.95198

P(x>8.2) = 1 - P(x<8.2) = 0.048021

Hence, the probability of the mean weight that the 10 apples exceeds 8.2 ounces of this customer wil be higher than the last customer in part b because the number of random samples in part b is greater that that in part c

sammi is trying to wrap a gift for her brother. the gift fits into a cube-shaped box with a side length of 9 inches. how many sq
Flauer [41]

Answer:

A=486\ \text{inches}^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a cube shaped box is given by :

A=6s^2

Where

s is the side length and A is the surface area

We have, s = 9 inches

So,

A=6\times (9)^2\\\\A=486\ \text{inches}^2

So, the required area is 486\ \text{inches}^2.

#3 - two supplementary angles with measures that have a sum of 180.

#4 - the region of a plane inside an angle

#5 - the region of a plane outside an angle

#6 - an angle with a measure of anything less than 90 degrees.

#7 - an angle with a measure of anything greater than 90 degrees.

These all should be right :)

Is it a zero slope when the zero is the numerator of a fraction?? Ex:0/29
Mama L [17]
The numerator is 0, the denominator is -11, the division symbol is -, and the value of the fraction is 0 because the value of the numerator is 0
