A machine that produces ball bearings has initially been set so that the true average diameter of the bearings it produces is .5

00 in. A bearing is acceptable if its diameter is within .004 in. of this target value. Suppose, however, that the setting has changed during the course of production, so that the bearings have normally distributed diameters with mean value .499 in. and standard deviation .002 in. What percentage of the bearings produced will not be acceptable

Answer:

7.3% of the bearings produced will not be acceptable

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples can be 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 = 0.499, \sigma = 0.002

Target value of .500 in. A bearing is acceptable if its diameter is within .004 in. of this target value.

So bearing larger than 0.504 in or smaller than 0.496 in are not acceptable.

Larger than 0.504

1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 0.504.

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

Z = \frac{0.504 - 0.494}{0.002}

Z = 2.5

Z = 2.5 has a pvalue of 0.9938

1 - 0.9938= 0.0062

Smaller than 0.496

pvalue of Z when X = -1.5

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

Z = \frac{0.496 - 0.494}{0.002}

Z = -1.5

Z = -1.5 has a pvalue of 0.0668

0.0668 + 0.0062 = 0.073

7.3% of the bearings produced will not be acceptable

In the given graph point B is a relative maximum with the coordinates (0, 2).

The given function is y=x^{4}-2x^{2} +1.

In the given graph, we need to find which point is a relative maximum.

<h3>What are relative maxima?</h3>

The function's graph makes it simple to spot relative maxima. It is the pivotal point in the function's graph. Relative maxima are locations where the function's graph shifts from increasing to decreasing. A point called Relative Maximum is higher than the points to its left and to its right.

In the graph, the maximum point is (0, 2).

Therefore, in the given graph point B is a relative maximum with the coordinates (0, 2).

The price of a television was reduced from 250 to 200. by what percentage was the price of the television reduced
Murljashka [212]

Answer:

20%

Step-by-step explanation:

We can start by finding out how much the price of the television was reduced by.

250 - 200 = 50

Now, we need to know what percent of 250 is 50? Let x represent the percent of 250 that is 50. Using this, we can set up an equation:

<u />x\%\times 250=50

Notice that a percentage can also be written as that number over 100.

\frac{x}{100}\times250=50

\frac{250x}{100}=50

Reduce the fraction (250 and 100 have a common factor of 10)

\frac{25x}{10}=50

Reduce the fraction again (25 and 10 have a common factor of 5)

\frac{5x}{2}=50

Multiply both sides by two

5x=100

Divide both sides by 5

x=20

Therefore the price of the television was reduced by 20%.
