Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

x<5

When we multiply by negative number sign of inequality should be  changed also.

x*(-1) > 5*(-1)

-x>-5

For this case we have the following expression:

x

By definition we have to:

Let c. If a then ac> bc

That is to say:

If we multilate on both sides of the inequality by -1, the sign automatically changes direction.

(-1) (x)  -5

Step-by-step explanation:

this month-100 percent

then previous month 100-20=80 percent

so

if 48=100percent

then x=80percent

x=(80×48)/100

x=38.4 ≈ 38 pairs if shoes

A printer toner company launches a new product. The number of pages that this new toner can print is normally distributed with a
Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the number of pages that this new toner can print is normally distributed, we would apply the formula for normal distribution which is expressed as

z = (x - µ)/σ

Where

x = the number of pages.

µ = mean

σ = standard deviation

From the information given,

µ = 2300 pages

σ = 150 pages

1)

the probability that this toner can print more than 2100 pages is expressed as

P(x > 2100) = 1 - P(x ≤ 2100)

For x = 2100,

z = (2100 - 2300)/150 = - 1.33

Looking at the normal distribution table, the probability corresponding to the z score is 0.092

P(x > 2100) = 1 - 0.092 = 0.908

2) P(x < 2200)

z = (x - µ)/σ/√n

n = 10

z = (2200 - 2300)/150/√10

z = - 100/47.43 = - 2.12

Looking at the normal distribution table, the probability corresponding to the z score is 0.017

P(x < 2200) = 0.017

3) for underperforming toners, the z score corresponding to the probability value of 3%(0.03) is

- 1.88

Therefore,

- 1.88 = (x - 2300)/150

150 × - 1.88 = x - 2300

- 288 = x - 2300

x = - 288 + 2300

x = 2018

The threshold should be

x < 2018 pages
