Answer:

0.1056 = 10.56% probability that the concentration exceeds 0.60

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this problem, we have that:

\mu = 0.5, \sigma = 0.08

What is the probability that the concentration exceeds 0.60?

This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 0.6. So

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{0.6 - 0.5}{0.08}

Z = 1.25

Z = 1.25 has a pvalue of 0.8944

1 - 0.8944 = 0.1056

0.1056 = 10.56% probability that the concentration exceeds 0.60

Question
Vlada [557]

Answer:

(-6,4)

Step-by-step explanation:

You started at (-4,2)  The first number in the ordered pair moves the number left and right and the second number moved the point up and down.

We are first told to move the point 2 units to the left.  -4 is my left right number.  If I am at -4 and I go to unites to the left, I will be at -6.  My new point is now (-6,2).  Next we are told to go up 2.  The 2 number in my ordered pair tells me that I am 2 above the x axis.  Now I am going to go two more units up.  I am now at 4, so my new ordered pair after the translation is (-6,4)

2(6 − 2x) + 3x = 4 + 2(5 + x) what is x
alexira [117]
First let's get rid of the parenthesis:

12 - 4x + 3x = 4 + 10 + 2x

Now group the x's on the left and the numbers on the right

-4x + 3x - 2x = 4 + 10 - 12

...and simplify

-3x = 2

divide by -3 to isolate x

x = -2/3
