1 1/2 = 3/2. 7 1/2 = 15/2

15/2 divided by 3/2 = 5 batches of cookies

Tema [17]

Answer:

3.33% per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the A=Pe^rt equation. A is the end amount, so it's 1892. P is the original amount, 1700. E is a constant, around 2.72. R is the growth constant. T is the time that passed, 3 hours. You can substitute the givens into the equation and get 1892=1700e^(3r). Divide by 1700 to isolate the e. This leaves you with 1892/1700=e^(3r). Do the natural log of each side cancel the e and bring the exponent down. This leaves you with ln(1892/1700)=3r. Divide by 3 to isolate r. ln(1892/1700) is .1. .1/3 is .03333. Multiply by 100 to get a percent. 3.33 percent is your final answer.

The life of a manufacturer's compact fluorescent light bulbs is normal, with mean 12,000 hours and standard deviation 2,000 hour

vitfil [10]

Z value is a numerical measurement that describe a value relationship to the mean of a group of values. The standard deviations is 1.25 above the mean is 14,500 hours.

<h3>Given information-</h3>

The mean for the bulb is 12,000 hours.

The standard deviation for the bulb is 2000 hours.

Sample value is 14500.

To find out the how many standard deviation is 14500 mean away from the mean the z value of the mean should be calculated.

<h3>Z value</h3>

Z value is a numerical measurement that describe a value relationship to the mean of a group of values. Z value is the ratio of the difference of the sample value $x$ and mean $\mu$ to the standard deviation. Thus the z value for the given mean $\sigma$ is,
