Assume that y varies inversely with x. If y=12 when x=5, find y when x=3

Inversely variation means xy = c, where c is a constant

Since when y = 12 x = 5, then c = 12*5 = 60

So xy = 60

Now when x = 3, y = 60/3 = 20

The weights of certain machine components are normally distributed with a mean of 8.04 g and a standard deviation of 0.08 g. Fin
NISA [10]

Answer:

The bottom 3 is separated by weight 7.8896 g and the top 3 is separated by weight 8.1904 g.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

Mean, \mu=8.04 g

Standard deviation, \sigma=0.08g

We have to find the two weights that separate the top 3% and the bottom 3%.

Let x be the weight of  machine components

P(Xx_2)=0.03

P(X

=0.03

From z- table we get

P(Z1.88)=0.03

Therefore, we get

\frac{x_1-8.04}{0.08}=-1.88

x_1-8.04=-1.88\times 0.08

x_1=-1.88\times 0.08+8.04

x_1=7.8896

\frac{x_2-8.04}{0.08}=1.88

x_2=1.88\times 0.08+8.04

x_2=8.1904

Hence, the bottom 3 is separated by weight 7.8896 g and the top 3 is separated by weight 8.1904 g.

solve for "x".

what about "y"? well, y = 240 - x
