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.

Find the equation of the line.<br> Use exact numbers.
Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

y = 4x + -9

Step-by-step explanation:

The y intercept which is -9, is the point in which the graph crosses the x-axis

In order to find the slope we need to identify two clear points on the graph.

- (0, -9)

- ( 1, -5)

Now that we have our two points we need to find the distance between them.

As you can see on the attachment the distance between the two points is 4 units up and 1 unit to the right, therefore the slope is 4/1 = 4.

Final Answer: y = 4x + -9
