Suppose company c produces packages of hazelnuts that are normally distributed with a mean of 93.5 individual hazelnuts and a standard deviation of 2.4 hazelnuts. company d produces packages of hazelnuts that are normally distributed with a mean of 95.9 individual hazelnuts and a standard deviation of 2.9 hazelnuts. since the z-score from _company c or company is closer to zero than the z-score of _company c or company , the company that produced a package with 91 hazelnuts in it is most likely _company c or company note: choose either company c/company d for each sentence.

step-by-step explanation:

the word superfluous means unnecessary

the largest number of the four options is 1.8 x 10-2

you have it in scientific notation.

1.80 x 10-6   = 0.00000180

1.80 x 10-4   = 0.000180 (bigger, or "less small", than the former one)

so

1.8 x 10-2       = 0.0180. as you see. the "less small", or the biggest one of them all.

as you have negative exponent, it means you are dividing 1.8 by 100 (i.e. moving the dot towards left, two times).

if you had positive exponent for the scientific notation, power of tenths, you would be multiplying times 100 (moving the dot towards right) as below:

1.8 x (10)2 = 180

so. if you have negative exponent in scientific notation, move the dot toward left. if it is positive, toward right as many times the exponent tells you.
