The volumes of soda in quart soda bottles are normally distributed with a mean of 32.3 oz and a standard deviation of 1.2 oz. What is the probability that the volume of soda in a randomly selected bottle will be less than 32 oz?

40.13% probability that the volume of soda in a randomly selected bottle will be less than 32 oz.

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean and standard deviation , the zscore of a measure X is given by:

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 pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this problem, we have that:

What is the probability that the volume of soda in a randomly selected bottle will be less than 32 oz?

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 32. So

has a pvalue of 0.4013

40.13% probability that the volume of soda in a randomly selected bottle will be less than 32 oz.

6 adults and 9 children went.

a + c = 15

12a + 9c = 153

12(6) + 9(9) = 153

72 + 81 = 153

answer is b.

15

i got this one as well.
