Answer:

A)  p = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation:

3(p - 5) = 5p -27

<u />

Apply the <u>Distributive Property of Multiplication over subtraction law</u>:

⇒ 3 · p - 3 · 5 = 5p - 27

⇒ 3p - 15 = 5p - 27

Add 27 to both sides:

⇒ 3p - 15 + 27 = 5p - 27 + 27

⇒ 3p + 12 = 5p

Subtract 3p from both sides:

⇒ 3p - 3p + 12 = 5p - 3p

⇒ 12 = 2p

⇒ 2p = 12

Divide both sides by 2:

⇒ 2p ÷ 2 = 12 ÷ 2

⇒ p = 6

Suppose the lifetime of a cell phone battery is normally distributed with a mean of 36 months and a standard deviation of 2 mont
solong [7]

Answer:

They should guarantee the lifetime of their batteries for 32 months.

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Probability Distribution:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the z-score of a measure X is given by:

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

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Mean of 36 months and a standard deviation of 2 months.

This means that \mu = 36, \sigma = 2

If the company wants to replace no more than 2% of all batteries, for how many months should they guarantee the lifetime of their batteries?

The guarantee should be the 2th percentile of lengths, which is X when Z has a pvalue of 0.02. So X when Z = -2.054.

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

-2.054 = \frac{X - 36}{2}

X - 36 = -2.054*2

X = 31.89

Rounding to the closest month, 32.

They should guarantee the lifetime of their batteries for 32 months.
