Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Hello!
The variable of interest is:
X: height of seaweed.
X~N(μ;σ²)
μ= 10 cm
σ= 2 cm
You have to find the value of the variable X that separates the bottom 0.30 of the distribution from the top 0.70
P(X≤x)= 0.30
P(X≥x)= 0.70
Using the standard normal distribution you have to find the value of Z that separates the bottom 0.30 from the top 0.70 and then using the formula Z= (X-μ)/σ translate the Z value to the corresponding X value.
P(Z≤z)= 0.30
In the body of the table look for the probability of 0.30 and reach the margins to form the Z value. The mean of the distribution is "0" so below 50% of the distribution you'll find negative values.
z= -0.52
Now you have to clear the value of X:
Z= (X-μ)/σ
Z*σ= X-μ
X= (Z*σ)+μ
X= (-0.52*2)+10= 8.96
The value of seaweed height that divides the bottom 30% from the top 70% is 8.96 cm
I hope this helps!
Answer:
Option (3). 0.25(22 - d) + d = 10.75
Step-by-step explanation:
Total number of coins Giuliana has = 22
Let the number dollar coins Giuliana has = d
Number of quarters with Giuliana = (22 - d)
Value of dollar coins and quarters = $10.75
So the equation will be,
Number of dollars coins × $1 + Number of quarters × $0.25 = $10.75
d + 0.25 × (22 - d) = 10.75
Therefore, to determine the number of dollars with Giuliana equation will be used,
d + 0.25(22 - d) = 10.75
Option (3) will be the answer.
Answer:
200 would be 1 percent of 2000
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
The probability that "at least one" is the probability of exactly one, exactly 2, exactly 3, 4 and 5 contain salmonella.
The easiest way to solve this is to recognise that "at least one" is ALL 100% of the possibilities EXCEPT that none have salmonella.
If the probability that any one egg has 1/6 chance of salmonella
then
the probability that any one egg will not have salmonella = 5/6.
Therefore
for all 5 to not have salmonella
= (5/6)^5 = 3125 / 7776
= 0.401877 = 0.40 to 2 decimal places
REMEMBER this is the probability that NONE have salmonella
Therefore
the probability that at least one does = 1 - 0.40
= 0.60
the answer is
0.60 or 60%
