X-6=5 is the answer that I got. 6 less than a number(x) means you are subtracting 6 and is 5 means it equals 5. Hope this helps:))

X-6=5
You should read it how it is written. It is basically saying x minus 6 equals 5.

P2 + 14p + 40 written as a binomial
BartSMP [9]
P² + 14p + 40
= p² + 10p + 4p + 40
= p(p+10) + 4(p+10)
= (p+10)(p+4)

It is known that the life of a particular auto transmission follows a normal distribution with mean 72,000 miles and standard de
scoray [572]

Answer:

a) P(X

P(z

b) P(X>65000)=P(\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}>\frac{65000-\mu}{\sigma})=P(Z>\frac{65000-72000}{12000})=P(z>-0.583)

P(z>-0.583)=1-P(Z

c) P(X>100000)=P(\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}>\frac{100000-\mu}{\sigma})=P(Z>\frac{100000-72000}{12000})=P(z>2.33)

P(z>2.33)=1-P(Z

Sicne this probability just represent 1% of the data we can consider this value as unusual.

d) z=1.28

And if we solve for a we got

a=72000 +1.28*12000=87360

So the value of height that separates the bottom 90% of data from the top 10% is 87360.  

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean".  

Part a

Let X the random variable that represent the life of a particular auto transmission of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

X \sim N(72000,12000)  

Where \mu=72000 and \sigma=12000

We are interested on this probability

P(X

And the best way to solve this problem is using the normal standard distribution and the z score given by:

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

If we apply this formula to our probability we got this:

P(X

And we can find this probability using excel or the normal standard table and we got:

P(z

Part b

P(X>65000)

And the best way to solve this problem is using the normal standard distribution and the z score given by:

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

If we apply this formula to our probability we got this:

P(X>65000)=P(\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}>\frac{65000-\mu}{\sigma})=P(Z>\frac{65000-72000}{12000})=P(z>-0.583)

And we can find this probability using the complement rule and excel or the normal standard table and we got:

P(z>-0.583)=1-P(Z

Part c

P(X>100000)

And the best way to solve this problem is using the normal standard distribution and the z score given by:

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

If we apply this formula to our probability we got this:

P(X>100000)=P(\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}>\frac{100000-\mu}{\sigma})=P(Z>\frac{100000-72000}{12000})=P(z>2.33)

And we can find this probability using the complement rule and excel or the normal standard table and we got:

P(z>2.33)=1-P(Z

Sicne this probability just represent 1% of the data we can consider this value as unusual.

Part d

For this part we want to find a value a, such that we satisfy this condition:

P(X>a)=0.1   (a)

P(X   (b)

Both conditions are equivalent on this case. We can use the z score again in order to find the value a.  

As we can see on the figure attached the z value that satisfy the condition with 0.9 of the area on the left and 0.1 of the area on the right it's z=1.28. On this case P(Z<1.28)=0.9 and P(z>1.28)=0.1

If we use condition (b) from previous we have this:

P(X  

P(z

But we know which value of z satisfy the previous equation so then we can do this:

z=1.28

And if we solve for a we got

a=72000 +1.28*12000=87360

So the value of height that separates the bottom 90% of data from the top 10% is 87360.

What were the factor(s), levels, and treatments for this experiment?
wolverine [178]

Step-by-step explanation:

A factor is an independent variable that is manipulated in an experiment.

Every factor has two or more levels, which are different values of the factor.

A combination of factor levels is called a treatment.

There is one factor: number of jumps.

This factor has two levels: sets of 10 and sets of 20.

For a single factor experiment, the levels are also the treatments: Jump 10 program and Jump 20 program.
