The weight (in pounds) of ``medium-size'' watermelons is normally distributed with mean 15 and variance 4. a packing container for several melons has a nominal capacity of 140 pounds. what is the maximum number of melons that should be placed in a single packing container if the nominal weight limit is to be exceeded only 5\% of the time? use the results of question 8 to you answer this one.

man its nopq i just guessed and got it right so uhh

g00d lucc

step-by-step explanation:

40 i don’t know lololol

let's call the solutions x₁ = (5 - 2√7)/3 and x₂ = (5 + 2√7)/3

then the equation is (x-x₁)(x-x₂) = 0

if you fill that in you get a lot of numbers which you can recognize as ax²+bx+c=0.

step-by-step explanation:

you can see that a=1 (there is just an x²)

b = (-5 -2√7 + 2√7 - 5)/3 = -10/3

c = -2√7)/3 ) * (-5+2√7)/3) = -1/3

so your answer is 3x^2 – 10x – 1 = 0
