A machining operation produces bearings with diameters that are normally distributed with mean 3.0005 inches and standard deviat

ion .0010 inch. Specifications require the bearing diameters to lie in the interval 3.000±.0020 inches. Those outside the interval are considered scrap and must be remachined. With the existing machine setting, what fraction of total production will be scrap?

Answer:

5%

Step-by-step explanation:

The 68-95-99.7 rule for the Normal distribution is an empirical rule that remind us the percentages of data that falls between the mean ± 1, ± 2 and ± 3 standard deviations.

That is to say, if the mean is m and the standard deviation s, roughly speaking 68% of the data falls between  [m-s, m+s], 95% between [m-2s, m+2s] and 99.7% between [m-3s, m+3s].

Since the mean is 3.0005 and the standard deviation is s=0.0010, 2s=0.0020, 95% of the data should fall between [3.0005-0.0020, 3.0005+0.0020] and 5% outside this interval. So <em>around 5% of total production will be scrap</em>.

Solve step by step 3(2x-4)=8
olganol [36]

Answer:

x = 3.33... or 10/3

Step-by-step explanation:

3(2x - 4) = 8

distribute the 3 into the parentheses

3 • 2x = 6x

3 • -4 = -12

6x - 12 = 8

add 12 to both sides

6x = 20

divide both sides by 6

x = 3.33... or 10/3

A grocery store will only accept yellow onions that are at least 2.75 in. In diameter. A grower has a crop of onions with diamet
Paraphin [41]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate z-score firstly

z-score = (x-mean)/SD = (2.75-2.5)/0.25 = 0.25/0.25 = 1

P( x greater than or equal to 2.75) = P(z greater than or equal to 1)

= 1 - p(z <1)

P(z<1) from table = 0.84134

1-p(z<1) = 0.15866 or 15.866%

1. Which of the following questions has a constant of
garik1379 [7]

Answer:

In B)  y = x/7 , the constant of proportionality is 7.

Step-by-step explanation:

Two quantities X and Y are said to be in proportion if and only if

X = kY   or, \frac{X}{Y}  = k,

where k =  Proportionality Constant.

Here, 7 is the constant of proportionality. Then,

A .   y = 14x

here, \frac{y}{x}  = 14  ≠ 7

B .   y = x/7

here, \frac{x}{y}  = 7  = constant of proportionality .

C.   y = x

here, \frac{y}{x}  = 1  ≠ 7
