Answer:

$4.80

Step-by-step explanation:

Make a proportion

$12 for 2.5 pounds, and $x for 1 pound

12/2.5=x/1

x/1 is equivalent to x

12/2.5=x

Divide

x=4.8

So, one pound of peanuts costs $4.80

The volume of wine in liters produced by a parcel of vineyard every year is modeled by a Gaussian distribution with an average o

saul85 [17]

Answer:

0.99865

Step-by-step explanation:

The question above is modelled by gaussian distribution. Gaussian distribution is also known as Normal distribution.

To solve the above question, we would be using the z score formula

The formula for calculating a z-score

z = (x-μ)/σ,

where x is the raw score

μ is the population mean

σ is the population standard deviation.

In the above question,

x is 115 liters

μ is 100

σ is the population standard deviation is unknown. But we were given variance in the question.

Standard deviation = √Variance

Variance = 9

Hence, Standard deviation = √9 = 3

We go ahead to calculate our z score

z = (x-μ)/σ

z = (115 - 100) / 3

z = 15/ 3

z score = 5

Using the z score table of normal distribution to find the Probability of having a z score of 5

P(x = 115) = P(z = 5) =

0.99865

Therefore the probability that this year it will produce 115 liters of wine = 0.99865

6 Questions answered for 30 points.

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer for the 1st Question,

Area of a cylinder can be calculated by,

Area of the cylindrical part = $2\pi rL$

Area of the parts that cover the open parts of cylinder = $2\pi r^2$

Therefor Total are of the cylinder = $2\pi rL+2\pi r^2$

Area of the total cylinder = $2*3.14*6.8*14.2+2*3.14*6.8^2$

= $896.784$

Therefor best estimate will be D) 923 in^2

Answer for the 2nd Question,

ABC is a triangle.

By Pythagorean theorem it says,

$(AC)^2+(CB)^2=(AB)^2$

The distance from A to C = 6

The distance from C to B = 5

$(AC)^2=6^2=36$

$(CB)^2=5^2=25$

$(AC)^2+(CB)^2=(AB)^2=36+25=61$

Therefor $(AB)^2=61\\(AB)=\sqrt{61}$

Therefor Answer is D) Sqr 61

Answer to Question 3

To find the trend you can draw an imaginary line that fits the scatter plots.(I have attached a image drawing the imaginary lines)

Then the revenue can be calculated by calculating the area covered by the imaginary line drawn or area "under" the curve.

Area of the Store 1 = $\frac{1}{2} *(110+40)*110=8250$

Area of the Store 2= $\frac{1}{2} *110*80=4400$

Therefore Revenue from Store 1 = $8250

Revenue from Store 2 = $4400

Answer is A) Store 1 has more sales revenue

Answer for Question 4

$\frac{5}{12}=0.4167\\\frac{5}{11}=0.4545$

You can straight away discard answer D because it is less than both 5/12 and 5/11.

Also you can discard Answer C because 25/264 is very small (less than 1/10=0.1)

$\frac{11}{23} =0.4782$ , therefor this is not in between those two numbers.

Then it has to be $\frac{115}{264} =0.4356$

Answer is B)

Answer for question 6

The equation of a straight line is of the form $y=mx+c$

here m is the gradient and c is the intercept.

Find the intercept(c) by finding the y value when x value is 0, here it is +1.

Gradient (m) of the graph can be found by,

$\frac{y1-y2}{x1-x2} =\frac{7-3}{3-1} =2$

Therefor the equation of the graph is,

$y=2x+1$

Answer is C

Answer for question 7

$\frac{7}{8} =0.875$

$\frac{6}{9} =0.67$

We can discard answer A because the value is close to 0.5

We can discard answer B because 3/17 is a very small value (0.17)

$\frac{53}{72} =0.73$ , This falls between the above 2 numbers.

Therefor answer is C
