68.2 % of the data is within one σ, either side of the mean
95.4 % of the data is within two σs, either side of the mean
99.7 % of the data is within three σs, either side of the mean
Therefore, 0.3 % of values lie outside the range of value of three σs.
We can say this is representative of the chance that a value (in this case, the lifetime of the fan) will exceed the mean value by more than three σs.

On a number line, what is x-4<-3?
goblinko [34]

Add 4 to both sides

x - 4 < -3

x-4+4 < -3+4

x < 1

To graph this on a number line, plot an open circle at 1 on the number line. Do not fill in the open circle. Shade to the left of the open circle. The shaded region represents all x values smaller than 1.

The graph is shown below.

A semicircular archway is built in front of a garden using 8 congruent granite tiles, as shown in the diagram. Find the area of
iris [78.8K]
Given: 
8 tiles
radius from the center of the archway to the inner edge of the tile. 7 ft.
radius from the center of the archway to the outer edge of the tile. 8 ft = 7 ft + 1 ft.

Area of a semi circle = π r² / 2 
A = (3.14 * (7ft)²) / 2 = (3.14 * 49ft²) / 2 = 153.86 ft² / 2 = 76.93 ft²
A = (3.14 * (8ft)²) / 2 = (3.14 * 64ft²) / 2 = 200.96 ft² / 2 = 100.48 ft²

100.48 ft² - 76.93 ft² = 23.55 ft²
23.55 ft² / 8 tiles = 2.94 ft² per tile.

How do you simplify 2 15/10?
sdas [7]
First you take 15/10 and see that you can take 5 out of the top and bottom, so it would become 3/2. Now you have 2 3/2.   2 goes into 3 once with 1 remainder so 3/2= 1 1/2
So then you take the original 2 and add it to 1 1/2. The answer is now 3 1/2
