he physical plant at the main campus of a large state university receives daily requests to replace florescent light-bulbs. The

distribution of the number of daily requests is Normally distributed with a mean of 47 and a standard deviation of 10. Using the Empirical Rule, what is the approximate percentage of light-bulb replacement requests numbering between 47 and 57?

Answer:

47.75 %

Step-by-step explanation:

It is a very well known issue that in Standard Normal Distribution  porcentages of all values fall according to:

μ  +   σ       will contain a 68.3 %

μ   +  2σ    will contain  a  95.5 %

μ  +  3σ      will contain  a  99.7 %

However it is extremely  importan to understand that the quantities above mentioned are distributed simmetrically at both sides of the mean, that is,  the intervals are:

[  μ - 0,5σ ;  μ  + 0,5σ ]

[  μ -   1σ ;  μ  +      1σ ]

[  μ -   1.5σ ;  μ  +   1.5σ ]

So we have to take that fact into account when applying the empirical rule. Then

With   mean    μ  =  47       and  σ = 10   is equal to say

values between    47    and     57    (  μ  +   σ  )  we are talking about the second interval, but just half of it.

Then the  approximate porcentage of light-bulb replacement requests is

95.5 /2   =  47.75 %

xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer:

To make a profit of at least $500 she must sell at least 12 necklaces

Step-by-step explanation:

Joyce rented a booth at a carnival at a cost of $95 to sell handmade beaded necklaces. The cost of making and packaging each beaded necklace was $15. If Joyce sells the beaded necklaces at $35 each then we have to find beaded necklaces she sell to make a profit of at least $500.

The costs side of the equation, we have:

Let no. of necklaces that she sell are x

∴ The cost of making and packaging x beaded necklace is $15x

Total Cost = 95+15x

Now, Joyce sells the beaded necklaces at $35 each. Therefore, selling price will be $35x

To make a profit of at least $500 the equation can be written as

95+15x+500\leq35x

595\leq50x

⇒ x\geq11.9=12

Hence,  to make a profit of at least $500 she must sell at least 12 necklaces

Select the correct answer. Which point lies on a circle with a radius of 5 units and center at P(6, 1)? A. Q(1, 11) B. R(2, 4) C
jasenka [17]

Answer:

T(9,-2)

Step-by-step explanation:

The circle has radius 5 units and center P(6,1).

The equation of this circle is

(x-6)^2+(y-1)^2=5^2

(x-6)^2+(y-1)^2=25

If Q(1,11) lies on this circle, then it must satisfy its equation.

(1-6)^2+(11-1)^2=25

(-5)^2+(10)^2=25

25+100=25, this statement is false.

If R(2,4) lies on this circle, then it must satisfy its equation.

(2-6)^2+(4-1)^2=25

(-4)^2+(3)^2=25

16+9=25, this statement is false.

If S(4,-4) lies on this circle, then it must satisfy its equation.

(4-6)^2+(-4-1)^2=25

(-2)^2+(-5)^2=25

4+25=25, this statement is false.

If T(9,-2) lies on this circle, then it must satisfy its equation.

(9-6)^2+(-2-1)^2=25

(4)^2+(-3)^2=25

16+9=25, this statement is TRUE.

The correct answer is D

Find an equation of the sphere that passes through the point (6, -2, 3) and has center (-1, 2, 1). Find the curve in which the s
svet-max [94.6K]

Answer:

A)  x^2 + 2x+ y^2 - 4y + z^2 - 2z - 63 = 0

B) radius = 5

center  = (4,-1,-3)

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2 + y^2 + z^2 - 8x + 2y + 6z + 1 = 0

A ) Determine the curve in which the sphere intersects the yz-plane

determine the radius ( r ) =  √((6-(-1))2+(-2-2)2+(3-1)2) = √69

next the equation of the sphere ( curve in which the sphere intersects the yz-plane )

x^2+2x+y^2-4y+z^2-2z-63 = 0

B) determine the center and radius of the sphere

X^2 + y^2 + z^2 -8x + 2y +6z + 1 = 0

(x-4)2+(y+1)2+(z+3)2 = 25 = 52

radius = 5

center  = (4,-1,-3)
