The package of a particular brand of rubber band says that the bands can hold a weight of 7 lbs. Suppose that we suspect this mi

ght be an overstatement of the breaking weight So we decide to take a random sample of 36 of these rubber bands and record the weight required to break each of them. The mean breaking weight of our sample of 36 rubber bands is 6.6 lbs. Assume that the standard deviation of the breaking weight for the entire population of these rubber bands is 2 lbs.Finding a random sample with a mean this low in a population with mean 7 and standard deviation 2 is very unlikely. a. True b. False

Answer:

False this value is very likely to find in this distribution

Step-by-step explanation:

With mean 7 ( μ ) and standad deviation  (σ ) 2 we can observe, value 6.6  is close to the lower limit of the interval

μ  ± 0,5 σ      7 ± 1 in which we should find 68,3 % of all values

(just 6 tenth to the left)

And of course 6.6 is inside the interval

μ  ± 1 σ   where we find 95.7 % of th value

We conclude this value is not unlikely at all

BlackZzzverrR [31]

Answer:

w = 40 miles per hour

r = 300 miles per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

We add w with the wind and subtract w against the wind

r+w = 340 miles per hour

r - w = 260 miles per hour

Add the two equations together to eliminate w

r+w = 340 miles per hour

r - w = 260 miles per hour

----------------------------------------

2r = 600

Divide by 2

r = 300 miles per hour without the wind

Now find w

r+w = 340

300 + w = 340

Subtract 300

w = 340-300

w = 40 miles per hour
