A data set lists weights (lb) of plastic discarded by households. The highest weight is 5.31 lb, the mean of all of the weights is x=2.088 lb, and the standard deviation of the weights is s=1.968 lb. a. What is the difference between the weight of 5.31 lb and the mean of the weights? b. How many standard deviations is that [the difference found in part (a)]? c. Convert the weight of 5.31 lb to a z score. d. If we consider weights that convert to z scores between −2 and 2 to be neither significantly low nor significantly high, is the weight of 5.31 lb significant?
Answer:
a) The difference is of 3.222 lbs.
b) 1.64 standard deviations.
c) Z = 1.64
d) Not significant, as the z-score of 1.64 is between -2 and 2.
Step-by-step explanation:
Normal Probability Distribution:
Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.
In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score of a measure X is given by:
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.
The mean of all of the weights is x=2.088 lb, and the standard deviation of the weights is s=1.968 lb.
This means that [tex]\mu = 2.088, \sigma = 1.968[/tex]
a. What is the difference between the weight of 5.31 lb and the mean of the weights?
This is [tex]X - \mu = 5.31 - 2.088 = 3.222[/tex]
The difference is of 3.222 lbs.
b. How many standard deviations is that [the difference found in part (a)]?
This is the z-score. So
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{5.31 - 2.088}{1.968}[/tex]
[tex]Z = 1.64[/tex]
1.64 standard deviations.
c. Convert the weight of 5.31 lb to a z score.
Z = 1.64, as found above.
d. If we consider weights that convert to z scores between −2 and 2 to be neither significantly low nor significantly high, is the weight of 5.31 lb significant?
Not significant, as the z-score of 1.64 is between -2 and 2.
Balu had a collection of coins1/2 of the coins were from Asian countries,1/3
of them from European countries and the remaining 36 from America.
How many coins were from ASIAN countries?
A)18
B)30
C)108
D)216 step by step explanation please
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex] \frac{1}{2} = asian \\ \frac{1}{3} = european \\ 36 = american \\ \frac{1}{2} + \frac{1}{3} = \frac{3 + 2}{6} = \frac{5}{6} \\ \frac{6}{6} - \frac{5}{6} = \frac{1}{6} = 36 \\ \frac{1}{6} = 36 \: so \\ \frac{6}{6} =6 \times 36 = 216 \\ \frac{1}{2} \times 216 = asian \\ \frac{1}{2} \times 216 = 108asian \\ please \: mark \: brainliest[/tex]
There are total 108 coins belonging to Asian countries.
What is equation?An equation is a formula that expresses the equality of two expressions, by connecting them with the equals sign =.
Given that, Balu had a collection of coins 1/2 of the coins were from Asian countries, 1/3 of them from European countries and the remaining 36 from America.
Let the total number of coins be x,
Establishing the equation, we get,
x/3+x/2+36 = x
Multiplying the equation by 6, we get,
2x+3x+216 = 6x
6x-5x = 216
x = 216
Therefore, the total numbers of coins are 216,
Since, there are 1/2 of total coins are Asian coins,
Therefore, number of Asian coins = 216 / 2 = 108
Hence, There are total 108 coins belonging to Asian countries.

Step-by-step explanation:
Which equation shows the point-slope form of the line that passes through (3, 2) and has a slope of 1/3
O y + 2 =1/3(x + 3)
O y-2=1/3(x-3)
O y + 3 = 1/3(x+ 2)
O y-3= 1/3(x-2)
Answer:
y - 2 = 1/3(x - 3)
Step-by-step explanation:
Point slope form is y - y1 = m(x - x1), where m is the slope and (x1, y1) is a point on the line.
Plug in the slope:
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
y - y1 = 1/3(x - x1)
Plug in the given point:
y - y1 = 1/3(x - x1)
y - 2 = 1/3(x - 3)
So, the correct answer is y - 2 = 1/3(x - 3)

When draining her hot tub, the height of the water in Brittany’s hot tub decreases at a rate of 2 inches per minute. After 9 minutes there are 11 inches of water in the tub. Assume that the height is decreasing at a constant rate.
a. Write an equation for the height of water left in the tub (h) as a function of the number of the minutes (t) that have elapsed.
b. What values of the domain, t, make sense? Why?
c. What values of the range, h, make sense? Why?
Step-by-step explanation:
a.
Let's give the starting amount of water as s. Every minute, 2 inches of water are lost, meaning that given the starting amount, s, we subtract 2 inches from s every minute, so s - 2 every minute = height of water left, so s - 2t (t representing minutes) = h
To figure out s, we simply plug our known value -- 9 minutes in and 11 inches left. s - 2(9) = 11, s-18=11, s= 29
29 - 2t = h
b. We know that we cannot have negative minutes, so the minimum amount of time that makes sense is 0. To figure out the maximum, we stop counting how much time has occurred when there is no water left, so we have to figure out when h = 0
29-2t = h = 0
t=14.5
Therefore, anything between 0 and 14.5 minutes makes sense
c. Anything between 0 and 29 makes sense because the height of water cannot be negative and we cannot get higher than the starting amount

Is (2, 3) a solution to this system of equations?
2x + 5y = 19
X + 16y = 5
yes
no
Answer:
No
Step-by-step explanation:
To check if (2,3) is a solution to the system of equations, we simply have to plug the coordinate points into the two equations and see if it is valid.
[tex]2*2+5*3=\\4+15=\\19\\\\19=19[/tex]
(2,3) belongs in the first equation.
[tex]2+16*3=\\2+48=\\50\\\\50\neq 5[/tex]
(2,3) does not belong in the second equation.
Therefore, (2,3) is not a solution to this system of equations.

In ΔFGH, f = 7.2 cm, g = 1.2 cm and h=6.6 cm. Find the area of ΔFGH to the nearest 10th of a square centimeter.
9514 1404 393
Answer:
3.6 cm²
Step-by-step explanation:
Heron's formula is usually used for calculating triangle area from side lengths.
The semiperimeter is ...
s = (7.2 +1.2 +6.6)/2 = 7.5
Then the area is ...
A = √(s(s -f)(s -g)(s -h)) = √(7.5(0.3)(6.3)(0.9)) = √12.7575
A ≈ 3.57176 cm²
The area of ΔFGH is about 3.6 square centimeters.

Laura, David, and Carlos served a total of 115 orders Monday at the school cafeteria. David served 3 times as many orders as Carlos. Laura served 10 more orders than Carlos. How many orders did they each serve?
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation: ts 6 11 19 56
Laura, David, and Carlos served a total of 115 orders
David served 3 times as many orders as Carlos. David = 3x
Laura served 10 more orders than Carlos. let Carlos = x
How many orders did they each serve? Laura = x + 10
Carlos + David + Laura = 115
x + 3x + x+10 = 115
5x + 10 = 115
5x = 115 - 10
5x = 105
x = 21 Carlos
63 Davide
31 Laura

ABCD is a quadrilateral such that the measures of three of its interior angles are given as B=122 degrees, C= 75 degrees, D= 51 degrees, find m=A
please help me with explanation
Answer:
angle A is 112 degree.
Step-by-step explanation:
quadilateral have 4 angles .
sum of the interior angles of a quadilateral is 360 degree
Here,
angle A = be x
angle B = 122
angle C = 75
angle D = 51
Now,
angle A + angle B + angle C + angle D =360 degree
x + 122 + 75 + 51 = 360
x + 248 = 360
x = 360 - 248
x = 112

A club is choosing 2 members to serve on a committee. The club has nominated 3 women and 3 men. Based on chance alone, what is the probability that one woman and one man will be chosen to be on the committee
Answer: 0.6
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
There are 3 women and 3 men available to form a 2 member committee.
No of ways, a man can be chosen are [tex]3[/tex]
Similarly, no of ways a woman can be chosen are 3
Therefore, probability of choosing 2 members i.e. 1 man and 1 women is
[tex]\Rightarrow P=\dfrac{3}{6}\times \dfrac{3}{5}[/tex]
If the order matter, then
[tex]\Rightarrow P=2\times \dfrac{3\times 3}{6\times 5}\\\\\Rightarrow P=0.6[/tex]
The probability that 1 woman and 1 man will be chosen is "0.6".
According to the question, the club has nominated:
Number of women = 3 Number of men = 3Now,
→ The number of ways to select two persons from 6 will be:
= [tex]\binom{6}{2}[/tex]
hence,
The probability that one woman and one man will be chosen will be:
→ [tex]P(1 \ women \ and \ 1 \ women) = \frac{\binom{3}{1} \binom{3}{1}}{\binom{6}{2}}[/tex]
[tex]= 3\times \frac{3}{15}[/tex]
[tex]= \frac{9}{15}[/tex]
[tex]= 0.6[/tex]
Thus the above answer is right.
