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:
Thus, the value of P (X > 5) is 0.7967.
(b)
Compute the value of P (4 < X < 16) as follows:
Thus, the value of P (4 < X < 16) is 0.6826.
(c)
Compute the value of P (X < 8) as follows:
Thus, the value of P (X < 8) is 0.3707.
(d)
Compute the value of P (X < 20) as follows:
Thus, the value of P (X < 20) is 0.9525.
(e)
Compute the value of P (X > 16) as follows:
Thus, the value of P (X > 16) is 0.1587.

We have to write an equation that uses this info so we can find the cost to ship that package. However, the package weight is given to us in grams and we need it in ounces. So first thing we are going to do is convert that 224 g to ounces. Use the fact that 1 g = .035274 ounces to convert. . Do the multiplication and cancel out the label of grams and we have 7.901376 ounces. Ok. We know that it costs .57 to mail the package for the first ounce. We have almost 8 ounces. So no matter what, we are paying .57. For each additional ounce we are paying .32. The number of .32's we have to spend depends upon how much the package goes over the first ounce. For the first ounce we pay .57, then for the remaining 6.901376 ounces we pay .32 per ounce. Our equation looks like this: C(x) = .32(6.901376) + .57 and we need to solve for the cost, C(x). Doing the multiplication we find that it would cost $2.78 to ship that package.
Alice should pick the enlarged-photo with dimensions of 8-inch by 10-inch.
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1:
In order for a part of the photo to not be cut off, the enlarged photo's dimensions should be of a constant ratio with the original photo's dimensions.
We divide the dimensions of the enlarged-photo with the dimensions of the original photo to check which has a constant ratio.
Step 2:
The original photo was a 4-inch by 5-inch photo.
Option 1 is 7-inch by 9-inch, so the ratios are
The ratios are different so this cannot be the enlarged photo's dimensions.
Option 2 is 8-inch by 10-inch, so the ratios are
The ratios are the same so this can be the enlarged photo's dimensions.
Option 3 is 12-inch by 16-inch, so the ratios are
The ratios are different so this cannot be the enlarged photo's dimensions.
So the enlarged-photo with dimensions of 8-inch by 10-inch should be picked.
