A particular fruit's weights are normally distributed, with a mean of 733 grams and a standard deviation of 9 grams. The heaviest 5% of fruits weigh more than how many grams?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The heaviest 5% of fruits weigh more than 747.81 grams.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a particular fruit's weights are normally distributed, with a mean of 733 grams and a standard deviation of 9 grams.

Let X = weights of the fruits

The z-score probability distribution for the normal distribution is given by;

                              Z  =  [tex]\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex]  ~ N(0,1)

where, [tex]\mu[/tex] = population mean weight = 733 grams

            [tex]\sigma[/tex] = standard deviation = 9 grams

Now, we have to find that heaviest 5% of fruits weigh more than how many grams, that means;

                    P(X > x) = 0.05       {where x is the required weight}

                    P( [tex]\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex] > [tex]\frac{x-733}{9}[/tex] ) = 0.05

                    P(Z > [tex]\frac{x-733}{9}[/tex] ) = 0.05

In the z table the critical value of z that represents the top 5% of the area is given as 1.645, that means;

                               [tex]\frac{x-733}{9}=1.645[/tex]

                              [tex]{x-733}}=1.645\times 9[/tex]

                              [tex]x = 733 + 14.81[/tex]

                              x = 747.81 grams

Hence, the heaviest 5% of fruits weigh more than 747.81 grams.

After using a 15% off coupon, the price of a sheet cake is $30.94. What was the original price?

Answers

Answer:

The original price was 36.40

Step-by-step explanation:

p = original price of cake

using the coupon

p - 15% off = 30.94

p - .15 p = 30.94

Combine like terms

.85p = 30.94

divide each side by .85

p = 30.94/.85

p =36.40

The original price was 36.40

Answers

Answer:
1) C. 16
2) D. 9
3) A. 8
4) B. 1:2
5) A. Marked price - Sale price

Explanation:
1) The square of 4 is just 4x4, which equals 16.

2) We have to first work out the square of 3457.
3457 x 3457= 11,950,849
The last digit is 9.

3) We know that 8 squared is 64, so the square root of 64 is 8.

4) To simplify 2:4, we need to divide both sides by a common factor. The common factor in this case is 2.
2 ÷2= 1
4 ÷2= 2
2:4 = 1:2

5) A discount is the more expensive/ marked price - the cheaper/ sale price.

Answer:

y = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

3x + 2y = 18

required:

find the y-intercept

we have to eliminate x to get the y intercept value

3(0) + 2y = 18

2y = 18

y = 18/2

y = 9

so the x & y intercept would be (0, 9)

d. there is 90% confidence that 25% of the adult citizens of the nation dreaded Valentines Day.

Answers

Answer:

The  correct option is C

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The sample size is  [tex]n = 2500[/tex]

    The sample  proportion is  [tex]\r p = 0.21[/tex]

    The margin of error is  [tex]E = 0.054[/tex]

The  90% confidence interval is  mathematically represented

         [tex]\r p - E < p < \r p + E[/tex]

=>      [tex]0.21 - 0.054 < p < 0.21 + 0.054[/tex]

An bus station has determined that the relationship between the number of passengers on a bus and the total weight of luggage stored in the baggage compartment can be estimated by the least squares regression equation y=118+14x. Predict the weight of luggage for a flight with 142 passengers.

Answers

Answer:

The weight of luggage for a flight with 142 passengers is 2,106

Step-by-step explanation:

The total weight of luggage stored in the baggage compartment can be estimated by the least squares regression equation:

y=118+14*x

where y is the total weight of luggage stored in the luggage compartment and x is the number of passengers on a bus.

If you want to predict the weight of luggage for a flight with 142 passengers, this means that x must have a value of 142. So, replacing in the expression:

y=118+14*142

you get:

y=118+1,988

y=2,106

The weight of luggage for a flight with 142 passengers is 2,106

In a certain year, 23% of all teenagers in the United States had checking accounts. Your bank, TeenChex Inc., is interested in targeting teenagers who do not already have a checking account. (a) If TeenChex selects a random sample of 1,000 teenagers, what number of teenagers without checking accounts can it expect to find? teenagers What is the standard deviation σ of this number? (Round the standard deviation to one decimal place.)

Answers

Answer:

1. 770

2. 13.31

Step-by-step explanation:

n = 1000

P (probability of those with account) = 23% = 0.23

q(probability of those without account) = 1-p = 0.77

a. We are expected to find the expected number of those without checking account

= n * q

= 1000 * 0.77

= 770

b. Standard deviation

= √n*p*t

= √1000x0.77x0.23

= √177.1

Find the prime factorization of the composite number.

(Type your answer using exponential notation.)

Answers

Answer:

  3×5×53

Step-by-step explanation:

You can use divisibility rules to find the small prime factors.

The number ends in 5, so is divisible by 5.

  795/5 = 159

The sum of digits is 1+5+9 = 15; 1+5 = 6, a number divisible by 3, so 3 is a factor.

  159/3 = 53 . . . . . a prime number,* so we're done.

795 = 3×5×53

_____

* If this were not prime, it would be divisible by a prime less than its square root. √53 ≈ 7.3. We know it is not divisible by 2, 3, or 5. We also know the closest multiples of 7 are 49 and 56, so it is not divisible by 7. Hence 53 is prime.

Find all values of x for which the series converges. (Enter your answer using interval notation.) [infinity] 9 x − 7 9 n n = 0 For these values of x, write the sum of the series as a function of x.

Answers

Answer:

The series converges to   [tex]$ \frac{1}{1-9x} $[/tex]     for   [tex]$ \frac{-1}{9} < x < \frac{1}{9} $[/tex]                

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the series is     [tex]$ \sum_{n=0}^{\infty} 9^n x^n $[/tex]

We have to find the values of x for which the series converges.

We know,

[tex]$ \sum_{n=0}^{\infty} ar^{n-1} $[/tex] converges to  (a) / (1-r) if r < 1

Otherwise the series will diverge.

Here, [tex]$ \sum_{n=0}^{\infty} 9^n x^n = \sum_{n=0}^{\infty} (9x)^{n} $[/tex] is a geometric series with |r| = | 9x |

And it converges for |9x| < 1

Hence, the given series gets converge for [tex]$ \frac{-1}{9} < x < \frac{1}{9} $[/tex]

And geometric series converges to [tex]$ \frac{a}{1-r} $[/tex]

Here, a = 1 and r = 9x

Therefore, [tex]$ \frac{a}{1-r} = \frac{1}{1-9x} $[/tex]

Hence, the given series converges to   [tex]$ \frac{1}{1-9x} $[/tex]     for   [tex]$ \frac{-1}{9} < x < \frac{1}{9} $[/tex]

The answer is 0.55 %

Step-by-step explanation:

ΣX = 815

ΣY = 425

ΣX x Y = 34565

Σ = 67925

Σ[tex]$Y^2$[/tex] = 18699          

So, correlation coefficient, b

[tex]$b= \frac{n \Sigma XY- \Sigma X \Sigma Y}{\sqrt{n \Sigma X^2-( \Sigma X)^2} \times \sqrt{(n \Sigma Y^2 -(\Sigma Y)^2}}$[/tex]

[tex]$b = \frac{(10 \times 34565)-(815 \times 425)}{\sqrt{(10 \times 67925)-(815)^2} \times \sqrt{(10 \times 10699)-(425)^2}}$[/tex]

[tex]$b= -\frac{725}{9779 \times 2702}$[/tex]

b = -0.0741

Correlation Determination:

[tex]$B^2 = (-0.0741)^2$[/tex]

    = = 0.0055 = 0.55%

Therefore,  0.55 percentage of the variation in y can be explained by x variable.
