Answer:

the value of the variable x is 16

Step-by-step explanation:

given \: expression \\  \frac{5}{8}x =  \frac{1}{2} x + 2 \\ substract \: \frac{1}{2} x from \: both \: sides \\ \frac{5}{8}x  - \frac{1}{2} x = \frac{1}{2} x  - \frac{1}{2} x  + 2 - \frac{1}{2} x  \\ factor \: out \: common \: x \\ x( \frac{5}{8}  -  \frac{1}{2} ) =  \frac{1}{8}  \\ simplify \\ \frac{1}{2} x  + 2 - \frac{1}{2} x \:  \frac{1}{2} x -  \frac{1}{2} x = 0 = 2 \\  \frac{1}{8} x = 2 \\ multiply \: both \: sides \: by \: 8 \\ 8. \frac{1}{8} x = 2.8 \\ simplify \\ x = 16.

if accrotime guarantees a full refund on any defective watch for 2 years after purchase, what percentage of total
adell [148]

Answer:

A. 0.62%

B. 28 months

Step-by-step explanation:

A. Calculation for what percentage of total production will the company expect to replace

Let x represents the distribution of life times

Let mean be 34 months

Let standard deviation be 4 months.

Based on the information the full refund on any defective watch for 2 years will represent 24 months (2 years *12 months).

First step

P(X<24)

= p(x-mean/ standard deviation< 24-34/4)

= p(z< -10/4)

=P(z<-2.5)

Second step is to Use the excel function to find NORMSDIST(z) of P(z<-2.5)

NORMSDIST(z)=0.62%

Therefore the percentage of total production will the company expect to replace will be 0.62%

B. Calculation for how much the guarantee period should be

First step

P(X<x)=0.06

P(x-Mean/Standard deviation < x-34/4) = 0.06

Second Step is to Use excel function

P(z<x-34/4) = (Normsinv(0.06)

x-34/4 = -1.555

Now let calculate how much the guarantee period should be

x = -6.22+34 months

x = 27.78

x = 28 months (Approximately)

Therefore the guarantee period should be 28 months

Solve the simultaneous equations
satela [25.4K]
I use the substitution method, but you can also use elimination and matrix

1. Solve for y in 3x+y=14
y=14-3x

2. Substitute y=14-3x into x+2y=3
-5x+28=3

3. Solve for x in -5x+28=3
x=5

4. Substitute x=5 into y=14-3x
y=-1

5. Therefore,
x=5
y=-1

Have a nice day :D

A battery requires 120.0 amps of electricity to fully charge. How many amps are required to fully charge the battery 25 times? (
gogolik [260]
I don't understand why the battery needs 120 amps of current to charge. But if that's what it takes, then the same 120 amps will charge it each time.
