A restaurant serves hot chocolate that has a mean temperature of 175 degrees with a standard deviation of 8.1 degrees. Find the probability that a randomly selected cup of hot chocolate would have a temperature of less than 161 degrees. Would this outcome warrant a replacement cup (meaning that it would be unusual)

The probability that a randomly selected cup of hot chocolate would have a temperature of less than 161 degrees =0.042

This outcome would warrant a replacement cup.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be a random variable that represents the temperature of hot chocolates.

GIven: Mean temperature = 175 degrees

standard deviation = 8.1 degrees

The probability that a randomly selected cup of hot chocolate would have a temperature of less than 161 degrees =

Hence, the probability that a randomly selected cup of hot chocolate would have a temperature of less than 161 degrees =0.042 < 0.5 (unusual)

i.e. this outcome would warrant a replacement cup.

The answer is in the image 

Cost of 7 gallons=$24.50

Cost of 1 gallon=24.50/7=3.5

Cost of 15 gallons=15*3.5=52.5

Cost of 15 gallons will be $52.5

For every 8 cars there are 7 trucks

Therefore,

Cars:Truck=8:7

Answer is B)8:7

The solution is in the following image

The answer is in the image 

F=ma

where F=force

m=mass

a=acceleration

Here,

F=4300

a=3.3m/s2

m=F/a

    =4300/3.3

    =1303.03kg
