Steel rods are manufactured with a mean length of 29 centimeter (cm). Because of variability in the manufacturing process, the l
engths of the rods are approximately normally distributed with a standard deviation of 0.07 cm. (a) What proportion of rods has a length less than 28.9 cm? (b) b) Any rods that are shorter than 24.84 cm or longer than 25.16 cm are discarded. What proportion of rods will be discarded?
The variable is the number of blueberries, the operation is division, and the constant is 6. Write the division expression as the fraction, b/6 . To evaluate, substitute 210 in for the variable, b, and simplify. 210 divided by 6 is 35. So each bowl has 35 blueberries.
