From long experience, it is known that the time it takes to do an oil change and lubrication job on a vehicle has a normal distr

ibution with a mean of 17.8 minutes and a standard deviation of 5.2 minutes. An auto service shop will give a free lube and oil change service to any customer who must wait beyond the guaranteed time to complete the work. If the shop does not want to give more than 1% of its customers a free lube and oil change service, how long should the guarantee be

Answer: 29.916 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

Mean of distribution = 17.8 minutes

Standard deviation of distribution = 5.2 minutes

Percentage of customers to give free lube and oil change service should not exceed 1% if the customer waits beyond the guaranteed time ;

Length of guarantee :

Since % of customers should not exceed 1%

Then probability of not being chosen = (1 - 0.01) = 0.99

Using the z table to find the Zscore of 0.99,

Zscore of 0.99 = 2.33

This is 2.33 standard deviations above the mean

(2.33 × standard deviation) + mean value

(2.33 × 5.2 minutes) + 17.8 minutes

12.116 + 17.8

= 29.916 minutes

Answer:

07:45 or 7:45

Step-by-step explanation:

On a clock, the shorter hand shows the hour of the day, while the longer hand shows the minute. The clock is divided into 12 hours and 60 minutes. In this case, the shorter hand is between 7 and 8, and the minute hand is right at 45, meaning that the time is 07:45. Hope this helps!

A small metal bar, whose initial temperature was 10° C, is dropped into a large container of boiling water. How long will it tak
IgorC [24]

Answer

According to newton law of cooling

\dfrac{d T}{dt} = k (T - T_a)

and

T = Ce^{kt} + T_a

now At Ta = 100

T₀ = 10 °C

T₁ = 12° C

T(0) = Ce^{0} + T_a

10 = C + 100

C = -90

now,

12 = -90e^k + 100

e^k = \dfrac{88}{90}

k = ln{\dfrac{88}{90}}

at time equal to t

T(t) = 70

T(t) = -90 (\dfrac{88}{90})^t + 100

70 = -90(\dfrac{88}{90})^t + 100

(\dfrac{88}{90})^t = \dfrac{1}{3}

t\times ln(\dfrac{88}{90}) = ln(\dfrac{1}{3})

t = 48.88 s

hence, after 48.88 s the temperature of the body will be 70°C

b) time taken to reach 98°C

T(t) = -90 (\dfrac{88}{90})^t + 100

98 = -90(\dfrac{88}{90})^t + 100

(\dfrac{88}{90})^t = \dfrac{1}{45}

t\times ln(\dfrac{88}{90}) = ln(\dfrac{1}{45})

t = 390 s

hence, after 390 s the temperature of the body will be 98°C
