Times for a surgical procedure are normally distributed. There are two methods. Method A has a mean of 33 minutes and a standard

deviation of 8 minutes, while method B has a mean of 37 minutes and a standard deviation of 4.0 minutes. (a) Which procedure is preferred if the procedure must be completed within 34 minutes?

Answer:

Method A.

Step-by-step explanation:

For solving this question we need to find out the z-scores for both methods,

Since, the z-score formula is,

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

Where, \mu is mean,

\sigma is standard deviation,

Given,

For method A,

\mu = 33

\sigma=8

Thus, the z score for 34 is,

z_1=\frac{34-33}{8}=0.125

While, for method B,

\mu = 37

\sigma = 4

Thus, the z score for 34 is,

z_2=\frac{34-37}{4}=-0.75,

Since, z_1 > z_2

Hence, method A is preferred if the procedure must be completed within 34 minutes.

6) (after 2.3) Consider the infinite system of linear equations in two variables given by ax + by = 0 where (a, b) moves along t
Paraphin [41]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given infinite system of linear equations is ax + by = 0

when (a,b) moves along unit circle in plane.

a) system having unique system (0, 0)

Since two of equation in thus system will be

1.x+0.y=0\\x=0

and

0.x+1.y=0\\y=0

It is clear that x = 0, y= 0 is the only solution

b) Linear independent solution in this system gives some set of solutions

1.x+0.y=0\\\x=0

and

0.x+1.y=0\\y=0

Vector form is

\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&0\\0&1\end{array}\right] =I

c) for this equation if add 0x +0y = 0 to system , Nothing will change

Because [0,0] satisfies that equation

d) If one of the equation is ax + by = 0.00001

where 0.00001 is small positive number

so, the system will be inconsistent

Therefore, the system will have no solution.

I need help with this problem. ​
MariettaO [177]

Answer:

the numbers next to a variable is a coefficient, for instance in 2x 2 would be the coefficient.

the constants are the numbers without variables next to them, just numbers

like terms are the term that are similar like 2x and 8x or even 5 and 3

lm not exactly sure what they mean when asking for constant terms.

Solve for x
Mademuasel [1]

Answer:

x = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the rule of exponents

a^{m} × a^{n} ⇔ a^{(m+n)}

Given

11^{x} = 11^{4} × 11^{5} = 11^{(4+5)} = 11^{9}

Since the bases on both sides are common, then equate the exponents

x = 9
