We need to find the biggest/highest number that can "go into" all of these numbers without a remainder.

That number is 2.

2 is a factor (a number that can "go into") of all of these numbers.

Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

Oscar needs to pack only one type of cd in each box and he must pack the same number of cd's in each box.

To solve this problem we would need to find the greatest common factor of the numbers given; the numbers that we have are 14, 12, 8.

First we are going to find the factors of all these three numbers:

14 = 1 x 2 x 7

12 = 1 x 2 x 2 x 3

8 = 1 x 2 x 2 x 2

The common factors of these three numbers are bolded:

14 = 1 x 2 x 7

12 = 1 x 2 x 2 x 3

8 = 1 x 2 x 2 x 2

We can see that the common factors are 1 and 2. The biggest of them is 2.

Therefore, the greatest number of cd's Oscar can pack in each box is 2

(Ross 5.15) If X is a normal random variable with parameters µ " 10 and σ 2 " 36, compute (a) PpX ą 5q (b) Pp4 ă X ă 16q (c) PpX
pochemuha

Answer:

(a) 0.7967

(b) 0.6826

(c) 0.3707

(d) 0.9525

(e) 0.1587

Step-by-step explanation:

The random variable <em>X</em> follows a Normal distribution with mean <em>μ</em> = 10 and  variance <em>σ</em>² = 36.

(a)

Compute the value of P (X > 5) as follows:

P(X>5)=P(\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}>\frac{5-10}{\sqrt{36}})\\=P(Z>-0.833)\\=P(Z

Thus, the value of P (X > 5) is 0.7967.

(b)

Compute the value of P (4 < X < 16) as follows:

P(4

Thus, the value of P (4 < X < 16) is 0.6826.

(c)

Compute the value of P (X < 8) as follows:

P(X

Thus, the value of P (X < 8) is 0.3707.

(d)

Compute the value of P (X < 20) as follows:

P(X

Thus, the value of P (X < 20) is 0.9525.

(e)

Compute the value of P (X > 16) as follows:

P(X>16)=P(\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}>\frac{16-10}{\sqrt{36}})\\=P(Z>1)\\=1-P(Z

Thus, the value of P (X > 16) is 0.1587.

**Use a <em>z</em>-table for the probabilities.
