Hey there.

12 + 2n = 20
Subtract 12 from both sides of the equation. This isolates our variable.
2n = 8
Divide both sides by 2, the number that's being multiplied by our variable. This isolates and solves for our variable.
n = 4; Your answer is D.)

I hope this helps!

12 + 2n = 20

2n = 20 - 12

2n = 8

n = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

x²+3x+4=0

x²+3x_ +2=0

x²+3x_2=-2

x²+3x_2+(3x_4)²=-2+(3/4)²

(x+3/4) =-2+9_16

x+3_4 = -32+9__16 =√-23_6

x+3_4 =-√23_4

x = -3+√-23___4

x = -3- √-23___4 , -3+√-23___4 //

Question Help Suppose that the lifetimes of light bulbs are approximately normally distributed, with a mean of 5656 hours and a

koban [17]

Answer:

a)3.438% of the light bulbs will last more than 6262 hours.

b)11.31% of the light bulbs will last 5252 hours or less.

c) 23.655% of the light bulbs are going to last between 5858 and 6262 hours.

d) 0.12% of the light bulbs will last 4646 hours or less.

Step-by-step explanation:

Normally distributed problems can be solved by the z-score formula:

On a normaly distributed set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the z-score of a value X is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

After we find the value of Z, we look into the z-score table and find the equivalent p-value of this score. This is the probability that a score will be LOWER than the value of X.

In this problem, we have that:

The lifetimes of light bulbs are approximately normally distributed, with a mean of 5656 hours and a standard deviation of 333.3 hours.

So $\mu = 5656, \sigma = 333.3$

(a) What proportion of light bulbs will last more than 6262 hours?

The pvalue of the z-score of $X = 6262$ is the proportion of light bulbs that will last less than 6262. Subtracting 100% by this value, we find the proportion of light bulbs that will last more than 6262 hours.

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

$Z = \frac{6262 - 5656}{333.3}$

$Z = 1.82$

$Z = 1.81$ has a pvalue of .96562. This means that 96.562% of the light bulbs are going to last less than 6262 hours. So

$P = 100% - 96.562% = 3.438%$ of the light bulbs will last more than 6262 hours.

(b) What proportion of light bulbs will last 5252 hours or less?

This is the pvalue of the zscore of $X = 5252$

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

$Z = \frac{5252- 5656}{333.3}$

$Z = -1.21$

$Z = -1.21$ has a pvalue of .1131. This means that 11.31% of the light bulbs will last 5252 hours or less.

(c) What proportion of light bulbs will last between 5858 and 6262 hours?

This is the pvalue of the zscore of $X = 6262$ subtracted by the pvalue of the zscore $X = 5858$

For $X = 6262$ , we have that $Z = 1.81$ with a pvalue of .96562.

For X = 5858

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

$Z = \frac{5858- 5656}{333.3}$

$Z = 0.61$

$Z = 0.61$ has a pvalue of .72907.

So, the proportion of light bulbs that will last between 5858 and 6262 hours is

$P = .96562 - .72907 = .23655$

23.655% of the light bulbs are going to last between 5858 and 6262 hours.

(d) What is the probability that a randomly selected light bulb lasts less than 4646 hours?

This is the pvalue of the zscore of $X = 4646$

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

$Z = \frac{4646- 5656}{333.3}$

$Z = -3.03$

$Z = -3.03$ has a pvalue of .0012. This means that 0.12% of the light bulbs will last 4646 hours or less.

We only consider the portion of the graph from x=0 on, since negative time is illogical. Tracing the graph we get the intersection point.
