Without a vale to substitute for the variable, we can only simplify the expression: since $8=4\cdot 2$ and $50 = 25\cdot 2$ , the expression becomes

$-4\sqrt{8m} + 7\sqrt{50m} = -4\sqrt{2\cdot 4m} + 7\sqrt{2\cdot 25m}$

Now use the property $\sqrt{ab} = \sqrt{a}\sqrt{b}\ \forall\ a,b\geq 0$

$-4\sqrt{4}\sqrt{2m} + 7\sqrt{25}\sqrt{2m} = -8\sqrt{2m}+35\sqrt{2m}$

Now we can factor $\sqrt{2m}$ :

$-8\sqrt{2m}+35\sqrt{2m} =\sqrt{2m}(-8+35) = 27\sqrt{2m}$

Answer: 49.85%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The physical plant at the main campus of a large state university recieves daily requests to replace florecent lightbulbs. The distribution of the number of daily requests is bell-shaped ( normal distribution ) and has a mean of 61 and a standard deviation of 9.

i.e. $\mu=61$ and $\sigma=9$

To find : The approximate percentage of lightbulb replacement requests numbering between 34 and 61.

i.e. The approximate percentage of lightbulb replacement requests numbering between 34 and $34+3(9)$ .

i.e. i.e. The approximate percentage of lightbulb replacement requests numbering between $\mu$ and $\mu+3(\sigma)$ . (1)

According to the 68-95-99.7 rule, about 99.7% of the population lies within 3 standard deviations from the mean.

i.e. about 49.85% of the population lies below 3 standard deviations from mean and 49.85% of the population lies above 3 standard deviations from mean.

i.e.,The approximate percentage of lightbulb replacement requests numbering between $\mu$ and $\mu+3(\sigma)$ = 49.85%

⇒ The approximate percentage of lightbulb replacement requests numbering between 34 and 61.= 49.85%
