The Precision Scientific Instrument Company manufactures thermometers that are supposed to give readings of 0°C at the freezing

point of water. Tests on a large sample of these thermometers reveal that at the freezing point of water, some give readings below 0°C (denoted by negative numbers) and some give readings above 0°C (denoted by positive numbers). Assume that the mean reading is 0°C and the standard deviation of the readings is 1.00°C. Also assume that the frequency distribution of errors closely resembles the normal distribution. A thermometer is randomly selected and tested. Find the temperature reading corresponding to the given information.
​If 6.3% of the thermometers are rejected because they have readings that are too high and another 6.3% are rejected because they have readings that are too low, find the two readings that are cutoff values separating the rejected thermometers from the others.

A: –1.46° , 1.46°

B: –1.45° , 1.45°

C: –1.39° , 1.39°

D: –1.53° , 1.53°

Answer:

-1.53 , 1.53

Step-by-step explanation:

It is basically asking you to find the percentiles. so for the bottom 6.3% you would type into your calculator 2nd, VARS, invNorm, area: .063, mean: 0, and Standard Deviation: 1 which gives you -1.53.

for the upper 6.3% you have to take 1-.063=.937 to get the upper percentile. now type into your calculator 2nd, VARS, invNorm, area: .937, mean: 0, and Standard Deviation: 1 which gives you 1.53.


I hope I helped :D

What does it mean for a differential equation to be autonomous?
andrew11 [14]
The term "autonomous" refers to an ordinary differential equation that relates the derivatives of the dependent variable as a function *only* of the dependent variable. In other words, the ODE doesn't explicitly depend on the independent variable.

Examples:

y'=y^2-1 is autonomous

y'=y^2-1+x is *not* autonomous

Pls help with #14 and #15!!!Asap 15 points
inna [77]

Answer:

14. -g + 10, 15. 12k + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm assuming you want to simplify the equation. For 14, we distribute -2. This gets us -2g + 10 + g. We can simplify that to -g + 10. We can't simplify that, so our answer is complete. For 15, we combine 8k and 4k to get 12k + 3. That can't be simplified, so we are done.
