The amount of soft drink in a bottle is a Normal random variable. Suppose that in 7% of the bottles containing this soft drink t

WITCHER [35]

Answer:

The mean is 15.93 ounces and the standard deviation is 0.29 ounces.

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

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

7% of the bottles containing this soft drink there are less than 15.5 ounces

This means that when X = 15.5, Z has a pvalue of 0.07. So when X = 15.5, Z = -1.475.

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

$-1.475 = \frac{15.5 - \mu}{\sigma}$

$15.5 - \mu = -1.475\sigma$

$\mu = 15.5 + 1.475\sigma$

10% of them there are more than 16.3 ounces.

This means that when X = 16.3, Z has a pvalue of 1-0.1 = 0.9. So when X = 16.3, Z = 1.28.

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

$1.28 = \frac{16.3 - \mu}{\sigma}$

$16.3 - \mu = 1.28\sigma$

$\mu = 16.3 – 1.28\sigma$

From above

$\mu = 15.5 + 1.475\sigma$

So

$15.5 + 1.475\sigma = 16.3 – 1.28\sigma$

$2.755\sigma = 0.8$

$\sigma = \frac{0.8}{2.755}$

$\sigma = 0.29$

The mean is

$\mu = 15.5 + 1.475\sigma = 15.5 + 1.475*0.29 = 15.93$

The mean is 15.93 ounces and the standard deviation is 0.29 ounces.

In tossing four fair dice, what is the probability of tossing, at most, one 3

11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

<u>Answer- </u>

In tossing four fair dice, the probability of getting at most one 3 is 0.86.

<u>Solution-</u>

The probability of getting at most one 3 is, either getting zero 3 or only one 3.

$P(A) =The \ probability \ of \ getting \ zero \ 3 =(\frac{5}{6})(\frac{5}{6})(\frac{5}{6})(\frac{5}{6})=\frac{625}{1296} =0.48$ ( ∵ xxxx )

$P(B) = The \ probability \ of \ getting \ only \ one \ 3 =(4)(\frac{1}{6})(\frac{5}{6})(\frac{5}{6})(\frac{5}{6}) = 0.38$ ( ∵ 3xxx, x3xx, xx3x, xxx3 )

P(Atmost one 3) = P(A) + P(B) = 0.48 + 0.38 = 0.86

Can someone help on this one because i don’t know if i’m correct

34kurt

Answer:

Yes its C

Step-by-step explanation:

First off the y intercepts + 3 and the line hits it not -3 so option D is out

Also the slope is negative so Option A and B are out

A meteor crater is 4100 feet in diameter. Approximate the distance around the crater. Use 3.14 for piπ

Novay_Z [31]

A crater shape should look like a circle. Then, the distance around the crater would be the area of the circle. To answer this question, you need to know how to calculate circle area. Since the diameter is 4100ft and radius is 1/2 of diameter, then the area should be:

Circle area= 2* 3.14 * radius= 2 *3.14 * 1/2 * 4100ft= 12874ft
