When nails are too long lots of bacteria will live in there. They can also become ingrown and scratch people easily.

The amount of soft drink in a bottle is a Normal random variable. Suppose that in 7% of the bottles containing this soft drink t

WITCHER [35]

Answer:

The mean is 15.93 ounces and the standard deviation is 0.29 ounces.

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the zscore of a measure X is given by:

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

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

7% of the bottles containing this soft drink there are less than 15.5 ounces

This means that when X = 15.5, Z has a pvalue of 0.07. So when X = 15.5, Z = -1.475.

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

$-1.475 = \frac{15.5 - \mu}{\sigma}$

$15.5 - \mu = -1.475\sigma$

$\mu = 15.5 + 1.475\sigma$

10% of them there are more than 16.3 ounces.

This means that when X = 16.3, Z has a pvalue of 1-0.1 = 0.9. So when X = 16.3, Z = 1.28.

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

$1.28 = \frac{16.3 - \mu}{\sigma}$

$16.3 - \mu = 1.28\sigma$

$\mu = 16.3 – 1.28\sigma$

From above

$\mu = 15.5 + 1.475\sigma$

So

$15.5 + 1.475\sigma = 16.3 – 1.28\sigma$

$2.755\sigma = 0.8$

$\sigma = \frac{0.8}{2.755}$

$\sigma = 0.29$

The mean is

$\mu = 15.5 + 1.475\sigma = 15.5 + 1.475*0.29 = 15.93$

The mean is 15.93 ounces and the standard deviation is 0.29 ounces.

Determined to find the slope<br>(1 7K), and (-3,5K)

Helga [31]

Answer: $\dfrac{K}{2}$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

As we know ,

The slope of a line that passes through $(x_1,y_1)$ and $(x_2,y_2)$ is given by :

$\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

The slope of a line that passes through (1 , 7K), and (-3,5K) =

$\dfrac{5K-7K}{-3-1}\\\\=\dfrac{-2K}{-4}\\\\=\dfrac{K}{2}$

Hence, the slope of the given line is $\dfrac{K}{2}$ .

1.) Use the quadratic formula to solve the equation. If necessary, round to the nearest hundredth .x squared minus 21 x equals n

Andrew [12]

Part 1
We are given $x^2-21x=-4x$ . This can be rewritten as $x^2-18x=0$ .
Therefore, a=1, b=-18, c=0.
Using the quadratic formula
$x=\frac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}=\frac{-\left(-18\right)\pm \sqrt{\left(-18\right)^2-4\left(1\right)\left(0\right)}}{2\left(1\right)}$
$x=\frac{18\pm 18}{2}$

The values of x are
$x_1=\frac{18-18}{2}=0$
$x_2=\frac{18+18}{2}=18$

Part 2
Since the values of y change drastically for every equal interval of x, the function cannot be linear. Therefore, the kind of function that best suits the given pairs is a quadratic function.

Part 3.
The first equation is $y=x^2+2$ .
The second equation is $y=3x+20$ .

We have
$x^2+2=3x+20$
$x^2-3x-18=0$
Factoring, we have
$\left(x-6\right)\left(x+3\right)=0$
Equating both factors to zero.
$x_1-6=0\rightarrow x_1=6$
$x_2+3=0\rightarrow x_2=-3$

When the value of x is 6, the value of y is
$y=3\left(6\right)+20=38$

When the value of x is -3, the value of y is
$y=3\left(-3\right)+20=11$

Therefore, the solutions are (6,38) or (-3,11)

What is the cost of 12.6 gallons of gasoline if the price per gallon is $1.40?

12345 [234]

If

1 gallon = $1.40
12.6 gallons = $1.40 × 12.6

Plug those into your calculator and you'll get $17.64!
