-- Cut the sheet in half. 

-- Put one half-sheet on top of the other half-sheet.
Cut the stack of 2 halves in half.

-- Put one stack of two quarter-sheets on top of the other stack of quarter-sheets.
Cut the stack of 4 quarters in half.

Now you have eight one-eighth sheets.

Three cuts.
Taking Sam (3 x 5) = 15 minutes, plus a few seconds for set-up between cuts.

Delta makes 12-volt car batteries. These batteries are known to be normally
blondinia [14]

Answer:

The probability that Delta car batteries last between three and four years

P(36≤X≤48) = 0.5188

The percentage of that Delta car batteries last between three and four years

P(3≤X≤4) = 52%

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>Step(i):-</em></u>

<em>Given that the sample size n =12 -volt car batteries</em>

<em>Let  'X' be a Random variable in a normal distribution</em>

<em>Given that mean of the normal distribution = 45 months</em>

<em>Given that the Standard deviation of the normal distribution = 8months</em>

<u><em>Step(ii):-</em></u>

Let  X₁ = 3 years = 12 × 3 = 36 months

Z_{1} = \frac{x_{1} -mean}{S.D} = \frac{36-45}{8} = -1.125

Let X₂ = 4 years  = 12 × 4 = 48 months

Z_{2} = \frac{x_{2} -mean}{S.D} = \frac{48-45}{8} = 0.375

<u><em>Step(iii)</em></u>:-

The probability that Delta car batteries last between three and four years

P(36≤X≤48) = P(-1.125≤Z≤0.375)

                   = P(Z≤0.375) - P(Z≤-1.125)

                   = 0.5 +A(0.375) - (0.5-A(1.125)

                   = 0.5 + 0.1480 - (0.5 -0.3708)

                  = 0.1480 + 0.3708

                 = 0.5188

<u><em>Final answer:-</em></u>

The probability that Delta car batteries last between three and four years

P(36≤X≤48) = 0.5188

The percentage of that Delta car batteries last between three and four years

P(3≤X≤4) = 52%

Solve the problem.
zmey [24]

Answer:

the percent of increase is 24%

Step-by-step explanation:

The percent of increase in general could be calculate as:

\frac{Vf - Vi}{Vi} *100

where Vf is final value and Vi is initial value.

From the question we know that Vi is equal to 25 and Vf is equal to 31. Replacing this values on the equation we get:

\frac{31-25}{25} *100=24%

That's mean that at second attempt the percent of increase is 24%, taking into account that at the first attempt a student get 25 questions correct.
