The weight, X, of cherry tomatoes selected at random from a very large bin at the local supermarket follows a Normal distribution with mean 3 oz. and standard deviation 2 oz. Suppose we pick 8 cherry tomatoes from the bin at random (independently) and put them in our bag. What is the probability that exactly 5 of the 8 cherry tomatoes weigh less than 4 oz (rounded to the nearest 0.01)?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: the probability that exactly 5 of the 8 cherry tomatoes weigh less than 4 oz is 0.05

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that;

X has normal distribution has mean µ = 3

standard deviation σ = 2  

now

P( x< 4) = P( (x-µ)/σ /(3-4)/5)

= P( z < -0.5 )

= 0.3085  {from the z-table}

X has binomial distribution with n = 8 and p = 0.3085

so P(x=5)

P(x=5) = 8C₅(0.3085)⁵ (1 - 0.3085)⁸⁻⁵

= 0.0517  ≈ 0.05

Therefore the probability that exactly 5 of the 8 cherry tomatoes weigh less than 4 oz is 0.05

Monica can clean the house in 5 hours by herself. When Monica and Sydney
work together, it takes 3 hours. How long would it take Sydney to clean the
house by herself?
A. 5.5 hours
B. 7.5 hours C. C: 2.0 hours
D. 4.7 hours

Answers

Answer:

The answer is B 7.5 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

A. P. E. X

Sydney can clean her house in 7.5 hours.

What is Efficiency?

Efficiency is often measured as the ratio of useful output to total input, which can be expressed with the mathematical formula r=P/C, where P is the amount of useful output ("product") produced per the amount C ("cost") of resources consumed.

Here, Monica can clean her house in 5 hours

Monica's efficiency = 1/5

Let, Sydney cleans the house in x hours.

Sydney's efficiency = 1/x

They both together complete their work in 3 hours

Combined efficiency = 1/3

Now, according to question;

1/5 + 1/x = 1/3

(x+5)/5x = 1/3

3x + 15 = 5x

5x - 3x = 15

2x = 15

x = 15/2

x = 7.5

Thus, Sydney can clean her house in 7.5 hours.

In the expression g×h, g and h are real numbers. For what values of g and h is the expression g×h negative?

Select TWO that apply.


A. g=−1; h=−1

B. g=−1; h=1

C. g=1; h=−1

D. g=0; h=1

E. g=−1; h=0

Answers

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

They are both negative and that helps it.

Hope this helps!!!

The  values of g and h to make the expression g×h negative are g=−1; h=1 and g=1; h=−1.

What is Expression?

An expression is combination of variables, numbers and operators.

The given expression is g×h where g and h are real numbers

The expression g×h is negative when either g or h is negative.

Since multiplying two negative numbers results in a positive number

The only way for the expression to be negative is if one of the numbers is negative and the other is positive.

So when g=−1 and h=1

The expression  g×h = -1×1 = -1.

when g=1 and h=-1

The expression  g×h = 1×-1 = -1.

Hence,  g=−1; h=1 and g=1; h=−1 are the  values of g and h to make the expression g×h negative

Adults in Turkey have mean caloric intake of 3500 calories per day (Wikipedia) with a standard deviation of 500 calories. A sample of 25 Ankara University students has an average intake of 3400 calories per day. Is this enough evidence to conclude that Ankara U. students average is not 3500 calories per day? Assume the distribution is normal.
A. State the null and alternative hypotheses.
B. What is the value of the test statistic?
C. Specify the rejection region?
D. State the conclusion.

Answers

Answer:

A) Null hypothesis; H0: μ = 3500

Alternative hypothesis;Ha μ ≠ 3500

B) t = -1

C) the rejection region will be;

p-value < 0.05

D) Conclusion is that there is no sufficient evidence to support the claim that Ankara U. students average is not 3500 calories per day.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given;

Population mean; μ = 3500

Population standard deviation; σ = 500

Sample mean; x¯ = 3400

Sample size; n = 25

We want to find enough evidence to conclude that Ankara U. students average is not 3500 calories per day.

Thus, the hypothesis is defined as;

A) Null hypothesis; H0: μ = 3500

Alternative hypothesis;Ha μ ≠ 3500

B) sample size is less than 30, thus we will use a t-test.

Formula for the test statistic is;

t = (x¯ - μ)/(σ/√n)

t = (3400 - 3500)/(500/√25)

t = -100/(500/5)

t = -1

C) since the sample is small, let's assume a significance level of 0.05.

Thus,the rejection region will be;

p-value < 0.05

D) from online p-value from t-score calculator attached using;

t = - 1; DF = 25 - 1 = 24; significance level = 0.05 and two tailed hypothesis, we have;

p-value ≈ 0.3273

This is greater than the significance value of 0.05.

Thus, we will fail to reject the null hypothesis and conclude that there is no sufficient evidence to support the claim that Ankara U. students average is not 3500 calories per day.
