A soft-drink machine can be regulated so that it discharges an average of μ oz. per cup. If the ounces of fill are Normally dist

ributed with a standard deviation of 0.4 oz., what value should μ be set at so that 98% of 6-oz. cups will not overflow?

Answer:

μ = 5.068 oz

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal distribution formula to use the table attached

Z = (x - μ)/σ

where μ is mean, σ is standard deviation, Z is on x-axis and x is a desired point.

98% of 6-oz. cups will not overflow means that the area below the curve is equal to 0.49; note that the curve is symmetrical respect zero, so, 98% of the cases relied between the interval (μ - some value) and (μ + some value)].

From table attached, area = 0.49 when Z = 2.33. From data, σ = 0.4 oz and x = 6 oz (maximum capacity of the cup). Isolating x from the formula gives

Z = (x - μ)/σ

2.33 = (6 - μ)/0.4

μ = 6 - 2.33*0.4

μ = 5.068

This means that with a mean of 5 oz and a standard deviation of 0.4 oz, the machine will discharge a maximum of 6 oz in the 98% of the cases.

Answer:

  • y -195 = 15(x -9)
  • $60

Step-by-step explanation:

The form of the equation you are given is called "point-slope" form. The "slope" in this case is the per-hour fee. The point is (9 h, $195). Point-slope form generally looks like this:

  y -k = m(x -h) . . . . . line with slope m through point (h, k)

Here, you have m=15, (h, k) = (9, 195), so the equation looks like ...

  y -195 = 15(x -9)

__

The "one-time fee" is the cost when hours are zero.

  y -195 = 15(0 -9)

  y = 195 -9(15) = 60 . . . . add 195 to both sides, and evaluate

The one-time fee is $60.

What’s the correct answer for this ?
icang [17]

Answer:

D.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since both the triangles as kept separately are similar, so we'll take proptionality of their sides to find one side

MP/ML=MN/MK

20/28=35/MK

CROSS MULTIPLYING

20×MK=28×35

MK=980/20

MK=49

KIM [24]

Answer:

C should be next

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok after you add 3x to both side you should get this:

5=5x+9

It makes since o subtract 9 from both sides at least for me.

Hope this helps :D

In the diagram, R, S, and T are all points of tangency. What is the perimeter of Triangle<br> XYZ?
Molodets [167]

Answer:

54 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter = TZ + TX + RX + RY + SY + SZ

TZ = 5 cm

TX = 13 cm

RY = 9 cm

RX = TX = 13 cm (tangents drawn from and external point)

SY = RY = 9 cm (tangents drawn from and external point)

SZ = TZ = 5 cm (tangents drawn from and external point)

Plug in the values:

Perimeter = 5 + 13 + 13 + 9 + 9 + 5 = 54 cm
