Answer: 68% of light bulbs last between 1765 hours and 1835 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

The empirical rule states that for a normal distribution, nearly all of the data will fall within three standard deviations of the mean . The empirical rule is further illustrated below

68% of data falls within the first standard deviation from the mean.

95% fall within two standard deviations.

99.7% fall within three standard deviations.

From the information given, the mean is 1800 hours and the standard deviation is 35 hours.

1 standard deviation = 1 × 35 = 35

1800 - 35 = 1765 hours

1800 + 35 = 1835 hours

Therefore, 68% of light bulbs last between 1765 hours and 1835 hours.

Solve the following application problem. Be sure to show your system of equations and the steps to solve the problem.
ololo11 [35]

Answer:

  • boat: 6 mph
  • current: 2 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

The relationship between time, speed, and distance is ...

  speed = distance/time

For boat speed b and current speed c, the speed downstream is ...

  b +c = (16 mi)/(2 h) = 8 mi/h

The speed upstream is ...

  b -c = (16 mi)/(4 h) = 4 mi/h

Adding the two equations eliminates the c term:

  2b = 12 mi/h

  b = 6 mi/h . . . . . divide by 2

Solving the second equation for c, we get ...

  c = b -4 mi/h = 6 mi/h -4 mi/h = 2 mi/h

The speed of the boat in still water is 6 mi/h; the current is 2 mi/h.

Rachel Newton scored 33 points in a recent basketball game. She scored 21 times, making several free throws worth 1 point each a
SpyIntel [72]

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

Let Rachel scored 33 points in total

Let a be the 1 point and b be the 2 point.

a = 21 points scored by 1 point. We want to find b

Step 2:

a+b=33

b= 33-a

  = 33-21

   = 12

b=12 points which means 6 double points
