A study of the amount of time it takes a mechanic to rebuild the transmission for a 1992 Chevrolet Cavalier shows that the mean

is 8.4 hours and the standard deviation is 1.8 hours. If 40 mechanics are randomly selected, find the probability that their mean rebuild time is less than 7.6 hours.

Answer: 0.0026

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Mean : \mu=8.4\text{ hours}

Standard Deviation : \sigma = 1.8\text{ hours}

Sample size : n=40

Formula to calculate z-score :-

z=\dfrac{X-\mu}{\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}

For X=7.6 hours.

z=\dfrac{7.6-8.4}{\dfrac{1.8}{\sqrt{40}}}=-2.81091347571\approx-2.8

P(X

Hence, the probability that their mean rebuild time is less than 7.6 hours = 0.0026

The probability that their mean rebuild time is less than 7.6 hours is 0.0026

<h3>Explanation: </h3>

A study of the amount of time it takes a mechanic to rebuild the transmission for a 1992 Chevrolet Cavalier shows that the mean is 8.4 hours and the standard deviation is 1.8 hours. If 40 mechanics are randomly selected, find the probability that their mean rebuild time is less than 7.6 hours.

The Chevrolet Cavalier is the line of small cars produced for the model years 1982 until 2005 by Chevrolet. Mechanics is the physics area concerned with the motions of macroscopic objects. The mean is the number average. To calculate we add up all the numbers then divide by how many numbers there are. In other words it is the sum divided by the count.

\mu = 8.4 hours

\sigma = 1.8 hours

n=40

z = \frac{Xbar -\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{r} } }  = \frac{7.6-8.4}{\frac{1.8}{\sqrt{40} } } = -2.81

Therefore the value of  Xbar < 7.6 hours. from the standard normal table is 0.0026

Hence, the probability that their mean rebuild time is less than 7.6 hours is  0.0026  = 0.26%.

The area of a rectangle is expressed as x4 - 9y2. What are the possible dimensions of the rectangle?
AnnyKZ [126]

This is a stupid question.  The teacher who asked this needs to go back to school.

A = x⁴ - 9y²

That's going to be a number.  As long as it's positive we can choose any length for our rectangle L and we can compute the width by W=A/L.   So the correct answer is the dimensions are L by  (x⁴ - 9y²)/L.

They don't want the correct answer.  They want you to factor this expression.  We'll do it, but don't believe for a second this factoring somehow constrains the possible dimensions of some rectangle.

We use the difference of two squares, a²-b² = (a+b)(a-b)

A = x⁴ - 9y² = (x²)² - (3y)² = (x²+3y)(x²-3y)

Answer: x²+3y  by  x²-3y
