14

To solve this, you have to substitue 2 for x and 1 for y (x=2 and y=1).

8x (the same thing as 8 times x) equals 16 because 8 times 2 equals 16.

16 - 3 = 13

You now want to add 13 + y. Y = 1, so you are adding 13 + 1, which is 14.

8(2) - 3 + 1 = 14

Suppose the life of a particular brand of laptop battery is normally distributed with a mean of 8 hours and a standard deviation

Ierofanga [76]

Answer:

4.75% probability that the battery will last more than 9 hours before running out of power

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.

In this problem, we have that:

$\mu = 8, \sigma = 0.6$
