This is an equation, you can't write equations as decimals. I think you're asking for x (as a decimal)?

Add 8 to each side: 4+8= 8+(-8)+3x
12=3x
x=4
This is a whole number so it's already in decimal form

Working alone and at a constant rate, Machine A takes 3 hours to create a widget. Machine B, working alone and at a constant rat
PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer:

Time required by Machine B to create a widget = 4 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Time taken by Machine A ( T_{A} ) = 3 hours

Time taken by Machine B ( T_{B} )= x hours

Time taken by both machines by working together = 12 hours

The time required to both machines by  working together to finish a task is given by the formula = \frac{T_{A} {T_{B} } }{T_{A} + T_{B} }

Put the values in above formula we get

⇒ T =  \frac{3 x}{3 + x}

⇒ 12 =  \frac{3 x}{3 + x}

⇒ 36 + 12 x = 3 x

⇒ x = - 4 hours

This is the time required by Machine B to create a widget.

This question is Incomplete

Complete Question

Researchers recorded the speed of ants on trails in their natural environments. The ants studied, Leptogenys processionalis, all have the same body size in their adult phase, which made it easy to measure speeds in units of body lengths per second (bl/s). The researchers found that, when traffic is light and not congested, ant speeds vary roughly Normally, with mean 6.20 bl/s and standard deviation 1.58 bl/s. (a) What is the probability that an ant's speed in light traffic is faster than 5 bl/s? You may find Table B useful. (Enter your answer rounded to four decimal places.)

Answer:

0.7762

Step-by-step explanation:

We solve using z score formula

z = (x-μ)/σ, where

x is the raw score

μ is the population mean

σ is the population standard deviation.

Population mean = 6.20 bl/s

Standard deviation = 1.58 bl/s.

x = 5 bl/s

z = 5 - 6.20/1.58

z = -0.75949

The probability that an ant's speed in light traffic is faster than 5 bl/s is P( x > 5)

Probability value from Z-Table:

P(x<5) = 0.22378

P(x>5) = 1 - P(x<5)

= 1 - 22378

= 0.77622

Approximately to 4 decimal places = 0.7762

The probability that an ant's speed in light traffic is faster than 5 bl/s is 0.7762
