Many people consider their smart phone to be essential! Communication, news, Internet, entertainment, photos, and just keeping c

urrent are all conveniently possible with a smart phone. However, the battery better be charged or the phone is useless. Battery life of course depends on the frequency, duration, and type of use. One study involving heavy use of the phones showed the mean of the battery life to be 9.75 hours with a standard deviation of 2.3 hours. Then the battery needs to be recharged. Assume the battery life between charges is normally distributed. (a) Find the probability that with heavy use, the battery life exceeds 10 hours. (Round your answer to four decimal places.) (b) You are planning your recharging schedule so that the probability your phone will die is no more than 5%. After how many hours should you plan to recharge your phone? (Round your answer to the nearest tenth of an hour.)

Answer:

a) 0.4567

b) 6 hours                      

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information the question:

The battery life follows a normal distribution with

\mu = 9.75\\\sigma = 2.3

Formula:

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

a) We have to find probability such that battery life exceeds 10 hours, that is,

P(X>10)

P(z > \displaystyle\frac{10 - 9.75}{2.3}) = P(z>0.1086)\\\\= 1 - P(z \leq 0.1086)\\= 1- 0.5433\\=0.4567

b) We have to find battery life such that

P(X \leq x) = 0.05\\\\P(z \leq \displaystyle\frac{x-9.75}{2.3}) = 0.05\\\\\displaystyle\frac{x-9.75}{2.3} = -1.64 \\\\x = (-1.64)(2.3) + 9.75\\x = 5.978

Here, we calculated the value of z from the normal distribution table.

So, after approximately 6 hours one should plan to recharge the phone.

1. Solve the equation using the zero-product property.<br> -x(5x – 4) = 0
Oxana [17]

Answer:

x = 0, 4/5

Step-by-step explanation:

The zero-product property states that if the product of a and b is zero, then either a = 0, b = 0, or both terms equal zero

  • Here our a term is -x and our b term is (5x - 4)
  • Setting each term equal to zero and solving for x we get
  • -x = 0 → x = 0
  • 5x - 4 = 0 → 5x = 4 → x = 4/5

Im not sure if anyone knows how to do this but if u do could u pleaseee help me with this!!!
slavikrds [6]

Answer:

y = -2x - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>1) Find the slope of the line.</u>

The slope of the original line is the same as the slope of the parallel line.

Slope formula:

m = \frac{y_{2} - y_{1}}{x_{2} - x_{1}}

In this case you can choose any 2 set of points on the table.

m = \frac{4 - 2}{-3 - (-2)} = \frac{4 - 2}{-3 + 2} = \frac{2}{-1} = -2

So the slope of the line is -2

<u>2) Use the point-slope formula to find the equation of the line.</u>

Point-slope formula:

y - y_{1}  = m(x - x_{1})

Now plug in the point (0, -5) and the slope -2 into the equation.

y - (-5) = -2(x - 0)

y + 5 = -2(x - 0)

To solve the equation first apply the distributive property.

y + 5 = -2x + 0

y + 5 = -2x

Next, subtract 5 from sides.

y = -2x - 5

You know have your equation in point-slope form!
