The manager of a computer retails store is concerned that his suppliers have been giving him laptop computers with lower than av

erage quality. His research shows that replacement times for the model laptop of concern are normally distributed with a mean of 4.2 years and a standard deviation of 0.6 years. He then randomly selects records on 38 laptops sold in the past and finds that the mean replacement time is 3.9 years. Assuming that the laptop replacement times have a mean of 4.2 years and a standard deviation of 0.6 years, find the probability that 38 randomly selected laptops will have a mean replacement time of 3.9 years or less.

Answer: 0.0010

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

Population Mean(m) = 4.2 years

Sample mean (s) = 3.9

Standard deviation (sd) = 0.6

Number of samples (n) = 38

Calculate the test statistic (z) :

(sample mean - population mean) / (sd / √n)

Z = (3.9 - 4.2) / (0.6 / √38)

Z = (- 0.3) / (0.6 / 6.1644140)

Z = -0.3 / 0.0973328

Z = - 3.0822086

Z = - 3.08

From the z table :

P(Z ≤ - 3.08) = 0.0010

aleksklad [387]

Answer:

0.6

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope is the change in y divided by change in x.

x is weeks

y is height

We know plant grows 0.6 inches every week. This means per 1 week [change in x], the plant grows 0.6 inches [change in y]

Slope = 0.6/1 = 0.6

0.6 is the slope of the function

The cost of renting a sailboat at a lake is $20 per hour plus $14 for lifejackets. Write an equation in slope-intercept form tha
aalyn [17]

Answer:

y=20x+14, where:

y is the total amount you would pay for using the sailboat

x is the number of hours the sailboat is used

Step-by-step explanation:

An equation in slope-intercept form is set up as y=mx+b. From the information provided, the equation would indicate that the cost of renting the boat would be equal to the price per hour for the number of hours plus the cost of lifejackets and the equation in slope-intercept form that can be used is:

y=20x+14, where:

y is the total amount you would pay for using the sailboat

x is the number of hours the sailboat is used
