This is much easier when you use a software like MS Excel. You have to list the points first. These are: (1,3), (2,2.5), (3,4), (4,5), (5,6.5), (6,5.5), (7,7), (8,6), (9,7.5), (10,7) and (11,9).

Do a scatter plot for this points and add a trend line and you obtain the equation of the line fit. The equation is p=0.6m+2.4

We use this equation to find p when m=12.

p = (0.6×12)+2.4
p = 9.6

Total profit in month 12 would be 9.6 thousand.

80 degrees. 145 = (4x+5) + (6x-10) = 10x-5... so 10x = 150, x = 15. LMN = 6x-10 = 6(15) - 10 = 80.

Andy estimated that he would need 75 feet of lumber for a tree house project. he later found that the actual amount of lumber ne

Kipish [7]

Step 1
Calculate the error
error=75-64-----> 11 ft

step 2
Divide the error by the exact value
11/64=0.1719

step 3
Convert that to a percentage
0.1719*100=17.19%

the answer is
17.19%

Iridium -192 has a half life of 74 days after 148 days, how many milligrams of 900 mg sample will remain?

Ad libitum [116K]

$\bf \textit{Amount for Exponential Decay using Half-Life}
\\\\
A=P\left( \frac{1}{2} \right)^{\frac{t}{h}}\qquad 
\begin{cases}
A=\textit{accumulated amount}\\
P=\textit{initial amount}\to &900\\
t=\textit{elapsed time}\to &148\\
h=\textit{half-life}\to &74
\end{cases}
\\\\\\
A=900\left( \frac{1}{2} \right)^{\frac{148}{74}}\implies A=900\left( \frac{1}{2} \right)^2\implies A=225$

A factory produces car tires. The number of miles each tire lasts before it completely wares out follows a normal distribution w

qwelly [4]

Answer: 0.0668073

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The number of miles each tire lasts before it completely wares out follows a normal distribution with mean μ = 50,000 miles and standard deviation σ = 8,000 miles.

Let x be the random variable that represents the number of miles each tire lasts.

z-score : $\dfrac{x-\mu}{\sigma}$

For x= 62,000

$z=\dfrac{62000-50000}{8000}=1.5$

By using the standard z-value table , the probability for a randomly selected tire to last for at least 62,000 miles will be :_

$P(x\geq62000)=P(z\geq1.5)=1-P(z$

Hence, the probability for a randomly selected tire to last for at least 62,000 miles = 0.0668073
