8. D A cereal manufacturer has a machine that fills the boxes. Boxes are labeled "16 ounces," so the company wants to have that much cereal in each box. But no packaging process is perfect, so there will be minor variation. When the machine runs properly the weight of the cereal in the boxes will be a normal distribution. If the weight was set to 16 ounces, then half of the boxes would be underweight, which would not make consumers happy. So, the manufacturer sets the mean weight to 16.3 ounces for filling the boxes. Based on their experience the company knows that the standard deviation will be 0.2 ounces. If the boxes are labeled 16 ounces, then what percentage of the boxes will be underweight?

Question

8. (5) A cereal manufacturer has a machine that fills the boxes. Boxes are labeled “16 ounces," so the
company wants to have that much cereal in each box. But no packaging process is perfect, so there will be
minor variation. When the machine runs properly the weight of the cereal in the boxes will be a normal
distribution. If the weight was set to 16 ounces, then half of the boxes would be underweight, which would
not make consumers happy. So, the manufacturer sets the mean weight to 16.3 ounces for filling the boxes.
Based on their experience the company knows that the standard deviation will be 0.2 ounces. If the boxes
are labeled 16 ounces, then what percentage of the boxes will be underweight? Include a sketch in your
answer. Round to 3 decimal places. shoodard denaton e.2 02

Choose the correct answer. On Day 1 of a technology conference in San Diego, 15 presenters who were setting up for their sessions in Annex C became ill with flu-like symptoms. During the course of the conference, 20 participants who attended sessions in Annex C also became ill with the same symptoms. To begin calculating the rate of this outbreak, investigators should first determine A) the size of the conference population, B) the number of cases of illness, C) the number of days the conference was held, D) the location of the conference?
For reasons of safety, a study of bears involved the collection of various measurements that were taken after the bears were anesthetized. When obtaining measurements from an anesthetized bear in the wild, it is relatively easy to use a tape measure to obtain the size of the chest, the length of the head, and the total length of the bear. It is difficult to find the weight because the bear must be lifted! Instead of actually weighing the bear, an estimate of the bears weight can be obtained from other measurements that were obtained. Use the data provided in cells E1 to H55 to answer the following questions. Head Length (HEADLEN) data is in cells E1 to E55. Length data is in cells F1 to F55. Chest size data is in cells G1 to G55. Weight data is in cells H1 to H55. All data sets have labels in first row. Develop the estimated regression equation that can be used to predict a bear's weight based on head length (HEADLEN), Length, and chest size. Place output in cell I1 Is the joint…
A state government is planning to distribute tablets to students in public schools to facilitate remote learning. The tablets will be distributed to 50 schools across the state. Each tablet costs $300, and the government has allocated a budget of $450,000 for this initiative. Calculate the following: 1. The total number of tablets that can be purchased with the allocated budget. 2. The average number of tablets each school will receive. 3. If the state has a total student population of 10,000 and each tablet is intended for one student, calculate the percentage of students who will receive a tablet.
In a manufacturing process, there are strict tolerances on the dimensions of a part produced. If the part is too long, it must be trimmed to the correct length. Suppose 5% of all parts are too long and 1% of all parts are too short. Parts of the correct length (either originally or trimmed) can be sold for $5 each. However, if the part is too short, it cannot be used at all and is discarded. The cost of manufacturing each part is $2 and the cost to trim a part to length is $1. The expected profit per part is: (A) $1.00 (B) $2.05 (C) $2.90 (D) $3.00 (E) $4.95
