To find the percentage you have to divide the part over the whole then multiply by 1000, in this example we want to find out the percentage corresponding to the defective pens.
No. Defective pens= 50
No. Pens = 1000
^ this means all pens defective and none defective since we went to see what proportion they make out of the WHOLE

part / whole *100= defective pens%

50/1000 * 100 = defective pens%
Defective pens = 5%

So, 5% of all pens in that factory are defective.

he temperature at any random location in a kiln used in the manufacture of bricks is normally distributed with a mean of 925 and
Leviafan [203]

Answer:

The proportion of bricks that crack during the firing process is 0.0001 = 0.01%.

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 zscore 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 pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Mean of 925 and a standard deviation of 60 degrees.

This means that \mu = 925, \sigma = 60

The proportion of bricks that crack during the firing process is closest to

This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 1150. So

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

Z = \frac{1150 - 925}{60}

Z = 3.75

Z = 3.75 has a pvalue of 0.9999

1 - 0.9999 = 0.0001

The proportion of bricks that crack during the firing process is 0.0001 = 0.01%.

1/2r−3=3(4−3/2r) plzzzzzzz help!
LUCKY_DIMON [66]
Answer:
r= 3

Explanation:
1. Write the division as a fraction
1/2r-3=3(4-3/2r)

2.Distribute the 3 through the paranthesis
1/2r-3=12-9/2r

3.Multiply both sides by 2
r-6=24-9r

4. Swap -6 and -9 together by changing their signs
r+9r= 24+6

5.Add them together
10r=30

6. Divide both sides by 10
r=10

Hope this helped :)
