A particular fruit's weights are normally distributed, with a mean of 476 grams and a standard deviation of 36 grams. The heaviest 19% of fruits weigh more than how many grams? Give your answer to the nearest gram.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

mean (μ) = 476 grams, standard deviation (σ) = 36 grams. P(z) = 19%

The z score shows by how many standard deviation the raw score is above or below the mean. It is given by the equation:

Since the 19% weigh more, therefore 81% (100% - 19%) weigh less.

From the normal distribution table, the z score that corresponds to a probability of 81%(0.81) = 0.87

We substitute z = 0.88 in the z score equation to find the raw score. Therefore:

x ≅ 507 grams

Therefore 19% of fruits weigh more than 507 grams

7. diameter 4 miles, circumference 4π miles

8. radius 0.2 miles, circumference 0.4π miles

[this is a bad problem because the actual radius of a car on the track is less than 0.2 miles so the answer is less than 0.4π miles]

9. radius 6 feet, circumference 12π feet

10. diameter 14 cm, circumference 14π cm

11. diameter 4.8 feet, circumference 4.8π feet
