The number of flaws per square yard in a type of carpet material varies with mean 1.4 flaws per square yard and standard deviati

on 1.2 flaws per square yard. This population distribution cannot be normal, because a count takes only whole-number values. An inspector studies 178 square yards of the material, records the number of flaws found in each square yard, and calculates x, the mean number of flaws per square yard inspected. Use the central limit theorem to find the approximate probability that the mean number of flaws exceeds 1.5 per square yard.

According to the Central Limit Theorem, the distribution of the sample means is approximately normal, with the mean equal to the population mean (1.4 flaws per square yard) and standard deviation given by:
\frac{\sigma}{ \sqrt{n} }=\frac{1.2}{ \sqrt{178} }=0.09
The z-score for 1.5 flaws per square yard is:
z=\frac{1.5-1.4}{0.09}=1.11
The cumulative probability for a z-score of 1.11 is 0.8665. Therefore the probability that the mean number of flaws exceeds 1.5 per square yard is
1 - 0.8665 = 0.1335.

Answer:

k = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

given f(x) then f(x) + k represents a vertical translation of f(x)

• If k > 0 then a shift of k units up

• If k < 0 then a shift of k units down

f(x) crosses the y- axis at - 2

g(x) crosses the y- axis at 3

Thus g(x) is 5 units vertically up from f(x)

since g(x) = f(x) + k → then k = 5

Find the slope of the line containing the pair of points.<br> ​(6​,5​) and ​(​0,​0)
GarryVolchara [31]

Answer: 5/6

Step-by-step explanation:

Use slope formula of y2-y1/x2-x1. So here it doesn’t matter which is which so I did (6,5) x1 and y1 and (0,0) x2 and y2

So plugging it in it would be 0-5/0-6 = -5/-6 which simplifies to 5/6
