A snack company makes packages of grapes and honeydew slices. The weight of an individual package of
grapes, G, is approximately Normally distributed with a mean of 3.25 ounces and a standard deviation of 0.91
ounces. The weight of an individual package of honeydew slices, H, is approximately Normally distributed with a
mean of 4.51 ounces and a standard deviation of 2.02 ounces. Assume G and H are independent random
variables. Let D=G-H. What is the probability that a randomly selected package of grapes weighs more than a
randomly selected package of honeydew slices?
O 0.127
O 0.230

0.334

Answers

Answer 1

Using the normal distribution, it is found that there is a 0.284 = 28.4% probability that a randomly selected package of grapes weighs more than a  randomly selected package of honeydew slices.

In a normal distribution 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]

It 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, which is the percentile of X. When two normal variables are subtracted, the mean is the subtraction of the means, while the standard deviation is the square root of the sum of the variances.

In this problem, for each variable, [tex]\mu_G = 3.25, \sigma_G = 0.91, \mu_H = 4.51, \sigma_H = 2.02[/tex]

For the subtraction, we have that:

[tex]\mu_D = \mu_G - \mu_H = 3.25 - 4.51 = -1.26[/tex]

[tex]\sigma_D = \sqrt{\sigma_G^2 + \sigma_H^2} = \sqrt{0.91^2 + 2.02^2} = 2.2155[/tex]

The probability that a randomly selected package of grapes weighs more than a  randomly selected package of honeydew slices is P(D > 0), which is 1 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 0.

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{0 - (-1.26)}{2.2155}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 0.57[/tex]

[tex]Z = 0.57[/tex] has a p-value of 0.7157.

1 - 0.715 = 0.284

0.284 = 28.4% probability that a randomly selected package of grapes weighs more than a  randomly selected package of honeydew slices.

Crafts Unlimited sells ribbon by the foot. Serena needs ribbon

for an art project. The cost of the ribbon is 5 feet for $3.00.

Feet of Ribbon 1 5 10 15

Cost (in dollars) $3.00

a. Complete this ratio chart based on the information provided.

b. How many feet of ribbon can Serena buy for $12.00?

c. If Serena needs 17 feet of ribbon, how much will she pay?

How do you know?

Answers

The completed ratio chart is provided below:

Feet of Ribbon    1             5   10    15

Cost                     $0.60   $3  $6   $9

The amount Serena would get if she has $12 is 20 yards.

The amount Serena would pay if she wants 17 feet of the ribbon is $10.20.

The first step is to determine the unit cost of a ribbon.

Unit cost of a ribbon = $3 / 5 = $0.60

The cost of 10 feet of the ribbon = $0.60 x 10 = $6

The cost of 15 feet of the ribbon = $0.60 x 15 = $9

The feet of ribbon Serena can buy if she has $12 = $12 / $0.60 = 20 yards.

The cost of 17 feet of the ribbon = $0.60 x 17 = $10.20

Answers

Answers:

Hasan's Expression: d - 0.25d

d: Original price0.25: percent discount 0.25d: amount of discountd - 0.25d: sale price

--------------------

Bella's Expression: 0.75d

0.75: percent of original priced: original price0.75d: sale price

=============================================

Explanation:

The variable d stands for the original price. The store is offering a 25% sale, which means that Hasan will save 25% of the original price. This means 0.25d represents the amount he saves (aka the discount amount).

For instance, let's say d = 100 is the original price. 25% of this is 0.25d = 25 dollars. So if the book is originally $100, then he saves $25.

As you can probably guess, the 0.75 comes from 1 - 0.25 = 0.75; it indicates that if Hasan saves 25%, then he still has to pay the remaining 75%

Notice how d - 0.25d = 1d - 0.25d = (1-0.25)d = 0.75d which points to the sale price being 75% of the original price d.

c² = 36 + 64

c² = 100

c = √100

c = 10

Each horizontal side measures 8.
