Two bottling plants package a certain type of sports drink. suppose the mean volume of all of this type of sports drinks is 20 fluid ounces. bottling plant a bottles approximately 43607 sports drinks per day. bottling plant b bottles approximately 179811 sports drinks per day. on a particular day, which bottling plant is less likely to record a mean volume of 21 fluid ounces for the day? a. the two bottling plants are equally likely to record such a volume because random samples from both plants will have daily mean volumes that vary.

b. bottling plant a (with 50,000 sports drinks per day), because with fewer sports drinks there will be less variability in the daily mean volume.

c. bottling plant b (with 175,000 sports drinks per day), because the daily mean will be closer to 20 fluid ounces with more sports drinks in the sample.

C. Bottling plant B (with 175,000 sports drinks per day), because the daily mean will be closer to 20 fluid ounces with more sports drinks in the sample.

Step-by-step explanation:

The general rule is that the larger the sample, the closer the sample mean will be to the population mean. This happens because the standard deviation of our sample is given by the following formula:

In which is the standard deviation of the mean volume of all of this type of sports drinks and is the size of the sample. So as increases, the less variation there will be, and the closer the sample mean will be to the population mean, that is, the closer the population mean is going to be closer to a mean volue of 20 fluid ounces.

So, the correct answer is:

C. Bottling plant B (with 175,000 sports drinks per day), because the daily mean will be closer to 20 fluid ounces with more sports drinks in the sample.

the ratio of white tiles to blue tiles is 48: 16. the ratio in it's simplest form is 3: 1.

step-by-step explanation:

ratio: take the first number and add a colon next to it, then add the second number after that. make sure the ratio order matches up with the written problem!

simplest form: we can simplify the ratio 48 : 16 by dividing both terms by the greatest common factor (gcf).

the gcf of 48 and 16 is 16.

divide both terms by 16:

48 ÷ 16 = 3

16 ÷ 16 = 1

reducing to simplest form:

48 : 16 = 3 : 1
