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

What happens when you reflect an object over intersecting line( combination of reflection)?
bazaltina [42]

The result concluded is equivalent to a single rotation transformation of the original object.

<h3>Explanation of how reflection across axis works?</h3>

When a graph is reflected along an axis, say x-axis, then that leads the graph to go just on the opposite side of the axis as if we're seeing it in a mirror.

The Compositions of Reflections Over Intersecting Lines states that if we perform a composition of two reflections over two lines that intersect.

The result concluded is equivalent to a single rotation transformation of the original object.

You are designing a rectangular garden. the garden will be enclosed by fencing on three sides and by a house on the fourth side.
RUDIKE [14]
Suppose the dimensions of the rectangle is x by y and let the side enclosed by a house be one of the sides measuring x, then the sides that is to be enclosed are two sides measuring y and one side measuring x.

Thus, the length of fencing needed is given by

P = x + 2y

The area of the rectangle is given by xy,

i.e.

xy = 288  \\  \\  \\  \\ \Rightarrow y= \frac{288}{x}

Substituting for y into the equation for the length of fencing needed, we have

P=x+2\left( \frac{288}{x} \right)=x+ \frac{576}{x}

For the amount of fencing to be minimum, then

\frac{dP}{dx} =0 \\  \\ \Rightarrow1- \frac{576}{x^2} =0 \\  \\ \Rightarrow \frac{576}{x^2} =1 \\  \\ \Rightarrow x^2=576 \\  \\ \Rightarrow x=\sqrt{576}=24

Now, recall that

y= \frac{288}{x} = \frac{288}{24} =12

Thus, the length of fencing needed is given by

P = x + 2y = 24 + 2(12) = 24 + 24 = 48.

Therefore, 48 feets of fencing is needed to enclose the garden.
