Answer:

Part 1) An equation is 15.7=3x+1

Part 2) The approximate population in 1950 was 4.9 million people

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x -----> the population in 1950 in million people

y -----> the population in 2003 in million people

we know that

y=3x+1 -----> equation A

y=15.7 ----> equation B

substitute equation B in equation A and solve for x

15.7=3x+1

3x=15.7-1

3x=14.7

x=4.9

therefore

The approximate population in 1950 was 4.9 million people

The mean life of a particular brand of light bulb is 1200 hours. if you know that at about 95% of this brand of bulbs will last

   First, lookup a standard normal table and see what the z-score is for 0.025 (one half of 100% - 95%) to allow for equal sized tails. You should find that the z-score is 1.96. That means that 95% of the time, the value should be within 1.96 standard deviations of the mean. Now let's calculate the standard deviation. 800 is 800 - 1200 = -400 to the left of the mean of 1200. 1600 is 1600 - 1200 = 400 to the right of the mean of 1200. So we are an equal distance of 400 on both sides of the mean. And we know from the z-score of 1.96, that we're 1.96 standard deviations from the mean. So a little division will give us the standard deviation. Which is: 400 / 1.96 = 204.0816327
   So the standard deviation of the light bulbs is 204</span>
