Answer:

4.65\leq x\leq 5.35

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the actual width of belt be x

we are given that the ideal width of safety belt strap is 5 cm

So, Difference between actual and ideal = (x-5)cm

We are also given that An actual width can vary by at most 0.35 cm.

So, The difference between actual and ideal width should be less than or equal to 0.35 cm

So, |x-5|\leq 0.35

We know

x-5\leq 0.35 and x-5\geq -0.35

x\leq 0.35+5 and x\geq -0.35+5

x\leq 5.35 and x\geq 4.65

So, 4.65\leq x\leq 5.35

Hence the range of acceptable widths is 4.65\leq x\leq 5.35

Free_Kalibri [48]

Answer:

Probability of the day to be a snow day is 0.34

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the data,

Out of 21 which had less than 3 inches of snow, 5 were snow days.

Out of 8 days which had more than 3 inches of snow, 6 were snow days.

So, we get,

Total number of days = 21 + 8 = 29

Total number of snow days = 5 + 6 = 11

Thus, the probability that the day will be a snow day is \frac{11}{29} i.e. 0.34

Hence, the probability of the day to be a snow day is 0.34.
