0.5 = 0.500
0.485<0.500
hope that helps!

When you look at the decimals line them up so it would look like this:

0.485
0.500
-----------

you have to add the 0s at the end or it wouldnt work. So you ask yourself. Is 485 bigger or less than 500. Well 500 is bigger than 485. So your answer would be 500 hope this helped :)

In the following figure, the value of x is____

zubka84 [21]

Answer:

x ≈ 8.3 ( to the nearest tenth )

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the cosine ratio in the right triangle

cos41° = $\frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse}$ = $\frac{BC}{AB}$ = $\frac{x}{11}$

Multiply both sides by 11

11 × cos41° = x, thus

x ≈ 8.3

Workers at the Pythagorean Construction Company are building a new house. They need to make sure that proper right triangles are

dimaraw [331]

Correct answer:

"If the sum of the squares of the two shorter sides equals the square of the longest side, then the triangle is a right triangle"

the Pythagorean theorem states that in a right triangle, the sum of the squares of the shortest sides is equal to the square of the largest side, the hypotenuse.

Also,
If we have a triangle with side lengths a, b and c, where a and b are the shortest, and "a squared plus b squared = c squared" then the triangle is a right triangle.

The statistical difference between a process operating at a 5 sigma level and a process operating at a 6 sigma level is markedly

Svet_ta [14]

Answer:

True

Step-by-step explanation:

A six sigma level has a lower and upper specification limits between $\\ (\mu - 6\sigma)$ and $\\ (\mu + 6\sigma)$ . It means that the probability of finding no defects in a process is, considering 12 significant figures, for values symmetrically covered for standard deviations from the mean of a normal distribution:

$\\ p = F(\mu + 6\sigma) - F(\mu - 6\sigma) = 0.999999998027$

For those with defects operating at a 6 sigma level, the probability is:

$\\ 1 - p = 1 - 0.999999998027 = 0.000000001973$

Similarly, for finding no defects in a 5 sigma level, we have:

$\\ p = F(\mu + 5\sigma) - F(\mu - 5\sigma) = 0.999999426697$ .

The probability of defects is:

$\\ 1 - p = 1 - 0.999999426697 = 0.000000573303$

Well, the defects present in a six sigma level and a five sigma level are, respectively:

$\\ {6\sigma} = 0.000000001973 = 1.973 * 10^{-9} \approx \frac{2}{10^9} \approx \frac{2}{1000000000}$

$\\ {5\sigma} = 0.000000573303 = 5.73303 * 10^{-7} \approx \frac{6}{10^7} \approx \frac{6}{10000000}$

Then, comparing both fractions, we can confirm that a 6 sigma level is markedly different when it comes to the number of defects present:

$\\ {6\sigma} \approx \frac{2}{10^9}$ [1]

$\\ {5\sigma} \approx \frac{6}{10^7} = \frac{6}{10^7}*\frac{10^2}{10^2}=\frac{600}{10^9}$ [2]

Comparing [1] and [2], a six sigma process has 2 defects per billion opportunities, whereas a five sigma process has 600 defects per billion opportunities.
