I think the answer is x = -4.
First you must take into account the variable that is being defined for this case:
c = represents the number of puppies whose eyes are closed.
We can then write the following equation:
15 = 11 + c
Rewriting the equation:
11 + c = 15
Clearing c:
c = 15-11
c = 4
4 puppies have their eyes closed
Answer:
11 + c = 15
4 puppies have their eyes closed
Y=1/2 the points would intersect

Answer:
μ = 5.068 oz
Step-by-step explanation:
Normal distribution formula to use the table attached
Z = (x - μ)/σ
where μ is mean, σ is standard deviation, Z is on x-axis and x is a desired point.
98% of 6-oz. cups will not overflow means that the area below the curve is equal to 0.49; note that the curve is symmetrical respect zero, so, 98% of the cases relied between the interval (μ - some value) and (μ + some value)].
From table attached, area = 0.49 when Z = 2.33. From data, σ = 0.4 oz and x = 6 oz (maximum capacity of the cup). Isolating x from the formula gives
Z = (x - μ)/σ
2.33 = (6 - μ)/0.4
μ = 6 - 2.33*0.4
μ = 5.068
This means that with a mean of 5 oz and a standard deviation of 0.4 oz, the machine will discharge a maximum of 6 oz in the 98% of the cases.
