Assume that females have pulse rates that are normally distributed with a mean of mu equals 72.0 beats per minute and a standard deviation of sigma equals 12.5 beats per minute. complete parts (a) through (c) below. a. if 1 adult female is randomly selected, find the probability that her pulse rate is between 65 beats per minute and 79 beats per minute. the probability is? b. if 16 adult females are randomly selected, find the probability that they have pulse rates with a mean between 65 beats per minute and 79 beats per minute. the probability is? c. why can the normal distribution be used in part (b), even though the sample size does not exceed 30?

Your vet has placed your pet on a diet. the diet is to contain at least 12 mg of fat and at least 14 mg of protein per serving. these requirements are to be obtained from two food sources. source a contains 2 mg of fat and 2 mg of protein per serving. source b contains 1 mg of fat and 3 mg of protein per serving. if source a sells for $1.28 per serving and source b sells for $1.12 per serving, how many servings of each type should be purchased to satisfy the requirements at minimal cost?
