Thompson and Thompson is a steel bolts manufacturing company. Their current steel bolts have a mean diameter of 142 millimeters,

and a standard deviation of 6 millimeters. If a random sample of 35 steel bolts is selected, what is the probability that the sample mean would be greater than 139.7 millimeters? Round your answer to four decimal places.

Answer: 0.9884

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :  Population mean : \mu=142

and standard deviation : \sigma=6

sample size : n= 35

Let x be the random variable that represents the diameter of steel bolts.

Using formula z=\dfrac{x-\mu}{\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}} ,

The z-value corresponds to x=139.7

z=\dfrac{139.7-142}{\dfrac{6}{\sqrt{35}}}\approx-2.27

The probability that the sample mean would be greater than 139.7 millimeters will be :-

P(x>139.7)=P(z>-2.27)=1-P(z

Hence, the required probability : = 0.9884

hoa [83]

Answer:

Probability is 0.831727

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability can be calculated as below

There are multiple scenarios

Scanerio 1

0 occurance & No damage = 1 - 0.2 - 0.03 - 0.001 = 0.769

Scanerio 2

1 occurance & No damage = 0.2 x ( 1 - 0.7 ) = 0.06

Scanerio 3

2 occurance & No damage = 0.03 x ( 1 - 0.7 )^2 = 0.0027

Scanerio 4

3 occurance & No damage = 0.001 x ( 1 - 0.7 )^3 = 0.000027

P(structure will not suffer any damage) = Scanerio 1 + Scanerio 2 + Scanerio 3 + Scanerio 4 = 0.769 + 0.06 + 0.0027 + 0.000027 = 0.831727

(05.08A)Triangle ABC is transformed to similar triangle A′B′C′ below:
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Answer:

1st option is correct i.e., 1 over 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Triangle ABC transformed to Triangle A'B'C'.

Coordinated of Triangle ABC are A(2,6) , B(2,4) and C(4,4)

Coordinated of Triangle A'B'C' are A'(1,3), B'(1,2) and C'(2,2)

Scale factor of Dilation is the no. of times coordinates of vertices of a figure increase or decrease.i.e.,

if A(a,b) ⇒ A'(c,d)

where, a.k=c & b.k=d then k is scale factor of dilation.

Value of k is same for all vertices.

For coordinates of A & A' ,we have 2.k=1\implies k=\frac{1}{2} \:\: and \:\: 6.k=3\implies k=\frac{1}{2}

For coordinates of B & B' ,we have 2.k=1\implies k=\frac{1}{2} \:\: and \:\: 4.k=2\implies k=\frac{1}{2}

For coordinates of C & C' ,we have 4.k=2\implies k=\frac{1}{2} \:\: and \:\: 4.k=2\implies k=\frac{1}{2}

Therefore, the scale factor of dilation is \:\frac{1}{2}\:  since in all cases k=\frac{1}{2}

1st option is correct i.e., 1 over 2
