Answer:

a.) The mean of the six layered plywood is 30 mm

    The standard deviation is 0.49 mm

b.) That the thickness is less than 28 mm has a probability of 0.000022.

Step-by-step explanation:

There are six layers in a plywood that is considered. It is also given that the layers are independent and normally distributed.

The thickness of the layers of the plywood have a mean, \mu = 5 mm

and a standard deviation, \sigma = 0.2 mm.

a.) Therefore the mean of the six layered plywood is = 6\mu

                                                                                   = 6 × 5 mmm

                                                                                   = 30 mm

 The standard deviation of the six layered plywood = \sqrt{6 \sigma^{2} } = \sqrt{6 \times (0.2)^2} = 0.49 mm

b.) We are given to find that the probability of the plywood is less than 28 mm thick.

   P( thickness < 28 mm)

   P( Z < \frac{(28 - 30)}{0.49})       =  P(Z < (\frac{-2}{0.49} ))        ⇒       P( Z < -4.082) = 0.000022

If A is a 3×3 singular matrix such that λ1=1−i is an eigenvalue of A, then the other eigenvalues of A are 0,1+i
astra-53 [7]

Answer:

1 + i

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that A is a 3 * 3 singular matrix

one of its eigenvalue ( λ1 ) = 1 - i

Given that the determinant of a singular matrix is = 0

therefore the second eigen value ( λ2 ) = 1 + i

1 - i + 1 + i  = 0

drek231 [11]

Answer: B

Step-by-step explanation:

(-3, -1) and (4, 5) are the points given

Slope formula: \frac{Y2-Y1}{X2-X1}

\frac{5--1}{4--3} = \frac{5+1}{4+3} \\

\frac{5+1}{4+3} = \frac{6}{7}
