A certain brand of automobile tire has a mean life span of 35,000 miles, with a standard deviation of 2250 miles. Assume the lif

e spans of the tires have a bell-shaped distribution.
(a) The life spans of three randomly selected tires are 34,000 miles, 37,000 miles, and 30,000 miles. Find the z-score that corresponds to each life span. Determine whether any of these life spans are unusual.
(b) The life spans of three randomly selected tires are 30,500 miles, 37,250 miles, and 35,000 miles. Using the Empirical Rule, find the percentile that corresponds to each life span.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

From the information given:

mean life span of a brand of automobile = 35,000

standard deviation of a brand of automobile = 2250 miles.

the z-score that corresponds to each life span are as follows.

the standard z- score formula is:

z = \dfrac{x - \mu}{\sigma}

For x = 34000

z = \dfrac{34000 - 35000}{2250}

z = \dfrac{-1000}{2250}

z = −0.4444

For x = 37000

z = \dfrac{37000 - 35000}{2250}

z = \dfrac{2000}{2250}

z = 0.8889

For x = 3000

z = \dfrac{30000 - 35000}{2250}

z = \dfrac{-5000}{2250}

z = -2.222

From the above z- score that corresponds to their life span; it is glaring  that the tire with the life span 30,000 miles has an unusually short life span.

For x = 30,500

z = \dfrac{30500 - 35000}{2250}

z = \dfrac{-4500}{2250}

z = -2

P(z) = P(-2)

Using excel function (=NORMDIST -2)

P(z) = 0.022750132

P(z) = 2.28th percentile

For x =  37250

z = \dfrac{37250 - 35000}{2250}

z = \dfrac{2250}{2250}

z = 1

Using excel function (=NORMDIST 1)

P(z) = 0.841344746

P(z) = 84.14th percentile

For x = 35000

z = \dfrac{35000- 35000}{2250}

z = \dfrac{0}{2250}

z = 0

Using excel function (=NORMDIST 0)

P(z) = 0.5

P(z) = 50th percentile

Which transformations could have been used to create A'B'C'? Choose all that apply.
Eduardwww [97]

The correct transformation is a rotation of 180° around the origin followed by a translation of 3 units up and 1 unit to the left.

<h3>Which transformation is used to get A'B'C'?</h3>

To analyze this we can only follow one of the vertices of the triangle.

Let's follow A.

A starts at (3, 4). If we apply a rotation of 180° about the origin, we end up in the third quadrant in the coordinates:

(-3, -4)

Now if you look at A', you can see that the coordinates are:

A' = (-4, -1)

To go from (-3, -4) to (-4, -1), we move one unit to the left and 3 units up.

Then the complete transformation is:

A rotation of 180° around the origin, followed by a translation of 3 units up and 1 unit to the left.
