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.

∠ABC and ∠DBC are complementary angles. If ∠ABC=6x+13 and ∠DBC=4x−3 what is the value of x?
Natalka [10]

Answer:

x = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Complimentary angles are angles that add up to 90 degrees. If ABC and DBC are complimentary, then when added together, it equals 90 degrees.

ABC + DBC = 90

6x+13+4x−3 = 90

10x+10 = 90

10x = 80

x = 8

what is the least possible value of the smallest of 99 consecutive positive integers whose sum is a perfect cube
Dmitrij [34]
Let the least possible value of the smallest of 99 cosecutive integers be x and let the number whose cube is the sum be p, then

\frac{99}{2} (2x+98)=p^3 \\  \\ 99x+4,851=p^3\\ \\ \Rightarrow x=\frac{p^3-4,851}{99}

By substitution, we have that p=33 and x=314.

Therefore, <span>the least possible value of the smallest of 99 consecutive positive integers whose sum is a perfect cube is 314.</span>
