The longest a blender can last and still be in the lowest 5% of life spans will be 4.6 years. The correct option is A.

<h3>What is a normal distribution?</h3>

The z-score formula can be used to resolve issues with samples that have a normal distribution. The score of a measure X in a collection with mean and standard deviation is given by:

Z = ( X - μ ) / σ

The Z-score calculates the deviation of the measure from the mean in standard deviations. We glance at the z-score table after determining the Z-score to determine the p-value connected to it.

The likelihood that the measure's value is less than X, or the percentile of X, is represented by this p-value. The likelihood that the value of the measure is greater than X is obtained by deducting 1 from the value.

In this problem, we have that:

μ = 5.8, σ = 0.9

Only those on the 5th percentile or lower will be replaced. So the warranty is the value of X when Z has a value of 0.05.

The value of x will be:-

Z = ( X - μ ) / σ

-1.28 = ( X - 5.8 ) / 0.9

X = 4.6

Therefore, the longest a blender can last and still be in the lowest 5% of life spans will be 4.6 years. The correct option is A.

lisabon 2012 [21]

The standard form: Ax + By = C

3x - y = -6  YES - A = 3, B = -1, C = -6

3x + y = 6   YES - A = 3, B = 1, C = 6

x + 6y = 9   YES - A = 1, B = 6, C = 9

x - 6y = -9   YES - A = 1, B = -6, C = -9

Vera_Pavlovna [14]
2+a / 2 = 4 and b+6 /2 = 10

2+a=8. and. b+6 = 20
a=6. and. b=14

(a,b) , the other endpoint, is thus (6,14)

Find the distance between points P(8,1) and Q(1,6) to the nearest tenth
Ronch [10]
1 - 8 = - 7
6 - 1 = 5

Let us use the Pythagorean theorem:

c^2 = (-7)^2 + 5^2 = 49 + 25 = 74 -> c = 8.6
