Stainless steels are frequently used in chemical plants to handle corrosive fluids, however, these steels are especially suscept

ible to stress corrosion cracking in certain environments. In a sample of 295 steel alloy failures that occurred in oil refineries and petrochemical plants in Japan over the last 10 tears, 118 were caused by stress corrosion cracking and corrosion fatigue (Materials Performance, 1981). Construct a 95% confidence interval for the true proportion of alloy failures caused by stress corrosion cracking.

Answer: 95% confidence interval would be (0.344,0.456).

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

n = 295

x = 118

so, \hat{p}=\dfrac{x}{n}=\dfrac{118}{295}=0.4

At 95% confidence, z = 1.96

So, margin of error would be

z\times \sqrt{\dfrac{p(1-p)}{n}}\\\\=1.96\times \sqrt{\dfrac{0.4\times 0.6}{295}}\\\\=0.056

so, 95% confidence interval would be

\hat{p}\pm \text{margin of error}\\\\=0.4\pm 0.056\\\\=(0.4-0.056,0.4+0.056)\\\\ =(0.344,0.456)

Hence, 95% confidence interval would be (0.344,0.456).

Suppose a triangle has two sides of length 32 and 35, and that the angle
pantera1 [17]

Answer:

The third side is around 58.043

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the law of cosines:  c^2=a^2+b^2-2abcos(C)

Plug in the two sides we know (into a and b) and the angle we know (into angle C).

Thus:

c^2=32^2+35^2-2(32)(35)cos(120)

Use a calculator:

c^2=3369\\

c=58.043087...

(Note: Make sure you're in Degrees mode.)

10x^3 y^-5 z^-2 if x=3 y=2 and z=5 express your answer as a reduced fraction
sineoko [7]

Answer:

\large\boxed{\dfrac{27}{80}}

Step-by-step explanation:

Put x = 3, y = 2 and z = 5 to the given expression 10x^3y^{-5}z^{-2}:

10(3^3)(2^{-5})(5^{-2})\qquad\text{use}\ a^{-n}=\dfrac{1}{a^n}\\\\=\dfrac{10(27)}{(2^5)(5^2)}=\dfrac{270}{(32)(25)}=\dfrac{270}{800}=\dfrac{27}{80}

One more question, Will pick brainliest + extra points!! Find x!!
Cerrena [4.2K]
Here, as the sides are equal, middle line would be exact half then the longer (bottom) side of the triangle. 
48 = 2(3x)
6x = 48
x = 48/6
x = 8

In short, Your Answer would be Option D

Hope this helps!
