Time taken to fill the bathtub is 8 min
time taken to drain the bathtub is 12 min
fraction of bathtub filled in 1 hour=1/8
fraction of bathtub drained in 1 hour=1/12
fraction that will be filled in a minute given that both taps are opened at he same time:
1/8-1/12
=1/24
thus time taken for the bathtub to be filled is 24 min

Michelin Tire Company wishes to set a minimum mileage guarantee on its new MX100 tire. Tests reveal the mean mileage is 67,900 w
Keith_Richards [23]

Answer:

The minimum guaranteed mileage is  x = 71489.55

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The mean is  \mu  =  67900

     The standard deviation is  \sigma =  2050

Generally for the probability to be 4% the minimum guaranteed mileage is evaluated as

    P( X  \ge x ) =1-  P( \frac{X - \mu }{\sigma } < \frac{ x -  67900 }{ 2050}  ) = 0.04

\frac{X -\mu}{\sigma }  =  Z (The  \ standardized \  value\  of  \ X )

     P( X  \ge x ) =1-  P( Z

=>  P( X  \ge x ) = P( Z

=>    z = \frac{ x -  67900 }{ 2050}

From the z table, the critical value corresponding to 0.96 to the left of the curve is  

         z = 1.751

So

        1.751 = \frac{ x -  67900 }{ 2050}

=>     x = 71489.55

Complete the phrases below using the word bank.
oee [108]

Answer:

A- b: the y value when y changes; the point where a line crosses the v-axis

B- m: What happens to y when x is one; the ratio of the y change to the x change

C- k: The y value when x is zero b x increases by one

Step-by-step explanation:

If this is about slope intercept form as i think it is

C sounds a little bonkers in this case though because when y is zero then x increases by one
