Apply the​ 68-95-99.7 rule to answer the question. The lifetimes of light bulbs of a particular type are normally distributed wi

th a mean of 370 hours and a standard deviation of 7 hours. What percentage of the bulbs have lifetimes that lie within 2 standard deviations to either side of the​ mean?

Answer:

95%.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that the lifetimes of light bulbs of a particular type are normally distributed with a mean of 370 hours and a standard deviation of 7 hours.

We are asked to find the percentage of the bulbs whose lifetimes lie within 2 standard deviations to either side of the​ mean using empirical rule.

The empirical rule (68-95-99.7) states that approximately 68% of data points lie within 1 standard deviation of mean and 95% of data points lie within two standard deviation of mean. 99.7% of data points lie within three standard deviation of mean.

Therefore, approximately 95% of data points lie within two standard deviation of mean.

What is the solution to the following system of equations?
kipiarov [429]

Answer:

(0, -6)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following systems of linear equations;

3x - 2y = 12 ...... equation 1

16x - 4y = 24 ........ equation 2

We would solve for the solution using the elimination method;

Multiplying eqn 1 by 2, we have;

2 * (3x - 2y = 12)

6x - 4y = 24

16x - 4y = 24

Subtracting the two equations, we have;

(6x - 16x) + (-4y -[-4y]) = (24 - 24)

-10x - 0 = 0

-10x = 0

x = -0/10 = 0

Next, we would find the value of y;

3x - 2y = 12

3(0) - 2y = 12

0 - 2y = 12

-2y = 12

y = -12/2

y = -6

Check:

3x - 2y = 12

3(0) - 2(-6) = 12

0 - (-12) = 12

12 = 12

I need someone to explain functions and functional symmetry to me. This is very important, so if you do not have a legit answer,
dolphi86 [110]

Symmetrical functions can be about the x and y axis. Essentially, if we reflect the graph across the y or x axis, we get the same graph. Some other graphs can be reflected across both the x and y axis at the same time and be symmetrical. These can be classified as odd and even functions. You can test this by replacing x and y with -x and -y and simplify the equation. If the results comes out to be the same as the original, it is symmetrical across the origin.

Best of Luck!
