Answer:

- 3.5229

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the rules of logarithms

logx + logy = log(xy)

$log_{10}$ $10^{n}$ = n

Given

$log_{10}$ 3 ≈ 0.4771, then

$log_{10}$ 0.0003

= $log_{10}$ (3 × $10^{-4}$ )

= $log_{10}$ 3 + $log_{10}$ $10^{-4}$

≈ 0.4771 - 4

≈ - 3.5229 ( to 4 dec. places )

A car is designed to last an average of 12 years with a standard deviation of 0.8 years. What is the probability that a car will

Scorpion4ik [409]

Due to the common probability formula I can solve that task. Refering to the task you gave, we have all the information we need. We solve it like that: $\frac{10-12}{0.8} = -2.5; Probability(-2.5)=.0.00621; Probability = 0.621%$
So the answer is the first option <span>0.621%</span>

What is the width of a rectangle with length 14cm and area 161 cm^2

Inessa05 [86]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a rectangle can be found with the formula $A = l*w$ , where $l$ is the length of the rectangle and $w$ is the width.

From the given problem statement, we know that $l = 14$ and $A = 161$ , so we can fill in those values in the formula anbd solve for $w$ to get the width:
