The car contains 50,000 rods. Claude Ong, manager of Quality Assurance, directs his crew measure the lengths of 100 randomly sel

ected rods. If the population of rods have a mean length of 120 inches and a standard deviation of 0.05 inch, the probability that Claude's sample has a mean less than 119.985 inches is
A) 0.9974
B) 0.0026
C) 0.4987

Answer: D) 0.0013

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the random variable that represents the lengths of rods.

As pr given , we have

n=100 , \mu=120\ inches  \sigma=0.05\ inch

z-score : z=\dfrac{x-\mu}{\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}

For x= 119.985 inches , we have

z=\dfrac{119.985 -120}{\dfrac{0.05}{\sqrt{100}}}=-3

Using the standard z-table , we have

The probability that Claude's sample has a mean less than 119.985 inches is

P(z

Hence, the probability that Claude's sample has a mean less than 119.985 inches is 0.0013.

Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer: Hope it helps :)

<u>-4</u>

7

Step-by-step explanation:

You have to use the formula <u>y2-y1</u>

                                                x2-x1

So <u>-4-4</u>

     8--6

-4-4= -8

8--6= 14 (two negative signs become a positive sign)

You have -8 over 14

If you simplify it's -4/7 or <u>-4</u>

                                         7

Please help with this question! It’s Algebra Math 2
juin [17]

Zero of 7 with a multiplicity of 3 means one factor is (x-7)^3

Zero of -1 with a multiplicity of 2 means one factor is (x+1)^2

Zero of 5 with a multiplicity of 1 means one factor is (x-5)

Multiplying, we get

f(x) = (x-7)^3(x+1)^2(x-5)

That's already in factored form so we leave it here.

Please help for number 8 I don't understand.

Answer:

8a. x = 16√3

8b. y = 8√3

Step-by-step explanation:

8a. Determination of the value of x

Adjacent = 24

Hypothenus = x

Angle θ = 30°

The value of x can be obtained by using cosine ratio as illustrated below:

Cos θ = Adjacent /Hypothenus

Cos 30 = 24 / x

√3/2 = 24/x

Cross multiply

x × √3 = 2× 24

x × √3 = 48

Divide both side by √3

x = 48/√3

Rationalise

x = 48/√3 × √3/√3

x = 48√3 / √3 × √3

x = 48√3 / 3

x = 16√3

8b. Determination of the value of y

Opposite = y

Adjacent = 24

Angle θ = 30°

The value of y can be obtained by using Tan ratio as illustrated below:

Tan θ = Opposite / Adjacent

Tan 30 = y / 24

1 / √3 = y /24

Cross multiply

y × √3 = 1 × 24

y × √3 = 24

Divide both side by √3

y = 24 /√3

Rationalise

y = 24 /√3 × √3/√3

y = 24 ×√3 / √3 × √3

y = 24√3 / 3

y = 8√3
