A machine used to fill cereal boxes dispenses, on the average, μ ounces per box. The manufacturer wants the actual ounces dispen

sed Y to be within 1.1 ounce of μ at least 75% of the time. What is the largest value of σ, the standard deviation of Y, that can be tolerated if the manufacturer's objectives are to be met?

Answer: 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

First step: we will use Tchebyscheff's theorem. The theorem can help us to explain random variables with finite variance as well as mean.

P (|Y-u| < or equals to 1) | > or equals to 0.75

= 1 - 1/2

Therefore, w= 2

Step 2: we use Tchebyscheff's inequality, which is:

= -2¶ + u < y < 2¶ + u

Therefore, we have; --2¶ + u

= 1 + u

1= K¶

¶ = 1/2.

Please take note that ¶ is represented as sigma symbol.

Since I can't get the symbol here with me. Also the u repres represent 'micro' symbol

There are 11 portable mini suites (a.k.a. cages) in a row at the Paws and Claws Holiday Pet Resort. They are neatly labeled with
BigorU [14]

Step-by-step explanation:

a) 7!

If there are no restrictions, answer is 7! as it is the permutation of all animals.

b) 4! x 3!

As cats are 6 and Dogs are 5, thus 1st and last must be cats in order to have alternate arrangements. Therefore the only choices are the order of the cats among  themselves and the order of the dogs among themselves. There are 4! permutations of the cats and 3! permutations of the dogs, so there are a total of 4! x 3! possible arrangements of the suites.

c) 3! x 5!

There are 3! possible arrangements of  the dogs among themselves. Now, if we consider the dogs as  one ”object” together, then we can think of arranging the 4 cats  together with this 1 additional object. There are 5! such arrangements possible, so there are a total of 3! · 5! possible arrangements of the suites.

d) 2 x 4! x 3!

As required that all the cats must be together and all the dogs must be together, either the cats are all  before the dogs or the dogs are all before the cats. There are two possible arrangements thus two times of both possibilities is the answer i.e.  2 x 4! x 3!

Jade farm has 9 chickens,each of which laid 3 eggs. Jases farm has 4 horses. ednas farm has chickens which laid a total of 23 eg
Tomtit [17]

The answer is that Jade's chickens laid more eggs. Since Jade's farm includes 9 chickens, which each laid 3 eggs, multiply 9 and 3 and you get 27. Edna's farm has chickens which, in total, laid 23 eggs, leading to Jade's chickens with 27 eggs to be more than the eggs laid by Edna's chickens. :)

A quarter is approximately 0.07 inches thick. A dollar bill is approximately 4.3 × 10-3 inches thick.
nlexa [21]

Answer:

m = 6.57 and n = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

To answer this question you will covert the thickness of a dollar to standard notation and then compare the two values.

0.07 =compared to 0.0043 = 0.0657

0.0657 = 6.57 x 10^-2

A quarter is thicker than a dollar by 6.57 x 10^-2.

m = 6.57 and n = -2
