Answer:

(a) The value of <em>a</em> is 53.35.

(b) The value of <em>a</em> is 38.17.

(c) The value of <em>a</em> is 26.95.

(d) The value of <em>a</em> is 25.63.

(e) The value of <em>a</em> is 12.06.

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability density function of <em>X</em> is:

f_{X}(x)=\frac{1}{55-22}=\frac{1}{33}

Here, 22 < X < 55.

(a)

Compute the value of <em>a</em> as follows:

P(X\leq a)=\int\limits^{a}_{22} {\frac{1}{33}} \, dx \\\\0.95=\frac{1}{33}\cdot \int\limits^{a}_{22} {1} \, dx \\\\0.95\times 33=[x]^{a}_{22}\\\\31.35=a-22\\\\a=31.35+22\\\\a=53.35

Thus, the value of <em>a</em> is 53.35.

(b)

Compute the value of <em>a</em> as follows:

P(X< a)=\int\limits^{a}_{22} {\frac{1}{33}} \, dx \\\\0.95=\frac{1}{33}\cdot \int\limits^{a}_{22} {1} \, dx \\\\0.49\times 33=[x]^{a}_{22}\\\\16.17=a-22\\\\a=16.17+22\\\\a=38.17

Thus, the value of <em>a</em> is 38.17.

(c)

Compute the value of <em>a</em> as follows:

P(X\geq  a)=\int\limits^{55}_{a} {\frac{1}{33}} \, dx \\\\0.85=\frac{1}{33}\cdot \int\limits^{55}_{a} {1} \, dx \\\\0.85\times 33=[x]^{55}_{a}\\\\28.05=55-a\\\\a=55-28.05\\\\a=26.95

Thus, the value of <em>a</em> is 26.95.

(d)

Compute the value of <em>a</em> as follows:

P(X\geq  a)=\int\limits^{55}_{a} {\frac{1}{33}} \, dx \\\\0.89=\frac{1}{33}\cdot \int\limits^{55}_{a} {1} \, dx \\\\0.89\times 33=[x]^{55}_{a}\\\\29.37=55-a\\\\a=55-29.37\\\\a=25.63

Thus, the value of <em>a</em> is 25.63.

(e)

Compute the value of <em>a</em> as follows:

P(1.83\leq X\leq  a)=\int\limits^{a}_{1.83} {\frac{1}{33}} \, dx \\\\0.31=\frac{1}{33}\cdot \int\limits^{a}_{1.83} {1} \, dx \\\\0.31\times 33=[x]^{a}_{1.83}\\\\10.23=a-1.83\\\\a=10.23+1.83\\\\a=12.06

Thus, the value of <em>a</em> is 12.06.

Workers on the assembly line produce 4x + 6 boats each day. Which expression shows how many boats they produced in 12 days?
vagabundo [1.1K]
The answer would be A. If 4x + 6 is the number of boats made in 1 day, then multiplying that by 12 would give us the number of boats made in 12 days so the equation would look like this:
12(4x + 6)
