Using the normal distribution, it is found that the life span of an appliance that has a z-score of –3 is of 24 months.

<h3>Normal Probability Distribution</h3>

The z-score of a measure X of a normally distributed variable with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

  • The z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is above or below the mean.
  • Looking at the z-score table, the p-value associated with this z-score is found, which is the percentile of X.

In this problem, the parameters are given as follows:

\mu = 48, \sigma = 8, Z = -3.

Hence:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

-3 = \frac{X - 48}{8}

X - 48 = -24

X = 24.

The life span of an appliance that has a z-score of –3 is of 24 months.

suppose the circumference of a crop circle is 150.7968 hectometers (hm) what's the radius of the circle? (usett=3.1416)​
gulaghasi [49]

Answer:

The radius of the circle is 24\ hm

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The circumference of a circle is equal to

C=2\pi r

In this problem we have

C=150.7968\ hm

\pi=3.1416

substitute and solve for r

150.7968=2(3.1416)r

r=150.7968/(2(3.1416))=24\ hm

To prepare for a bake-off, Chad used 520 grams of flour each day for 2 weeks. How many kilograms did Chad use in those 2 weeks?
Shalnov [3]

Answer:

7.280 k

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that  1 g = 0.001 k

If he uses 520 grams of flour each day for 2 weeks, since there are 7 days in a week, the total weight of flour used in two weeks

= 520 g * 2 * 7

= 7280 g

In kilograms

Since

1 g = 0.001 k

7280 g = 7280/1 * 0.001 k

= 7.280 k
