Answer:

7.4\ years  

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that    

The compound interest formula is equal to  

A=P(1+\frac{r}{n})^{nt}  

where  

A is the Final Investment Value  

P is the Principal amount of money to be invested  

r is the rate of interest  in decimal

t is Number of Time Periods  

n is the number of times interest is compounded per year

in this problem we have  

t=?\ years\\ P=\$9,000\\ r=0.06\\n=12\\ A=\$14,000  

substitute in the formula above  

14,000=9,000(1+\frac{0.06}{12})^{12t}  

(14/9)=(1.005)^{12t}  

Apply log both sides

log(14/9)=(12t)log(1.005)  

t=log(14/9)/[(12)log(1.005)]  

t=7.4\ years

A battery has a lifetime that is approximately normally distributed with a mean of 600 hours and a standard deviation of 50 hour
miss Akunina [59]

Answer:

A. Your battery is likely defective since such poor performance is extremely unlikely.

Step-by-step explanation:

When the distribution is normal, we use 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.

If X is more than two standard deviations from the mean, it is considered an unlikely outcome.

In this question, we have that:

\mu = 600, \sigma = 50

Which of the following conclusions is the most appropriate given this information?

Lasted 400 hours, so X = 400.

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

Z = \frac{400 - 600}{50}

Z = -4

4 standard deviations from the mean, so unlikely.

So the correct answer is:

A. Your battery is likely defective since such poor performance is extremely unlikely.
