A machine operation produces bearings whose diameters are normally distributed, with a mean of 0.497 inch and a standard deviati

on of 0.003 inch. suppose that specifications require that the bearing diameter be 0.500 inch plus or minus 0.004 inch. normal distribution: $\mu = 0.497$, $\sigma = 0.003$. specifications: ( 0.496 , 0.504 ) what proportion of the production will be unacceptable?

Mean = 0.497 in, SD = 0.003 in
Required diameter ranges between 0.496 in and 0.504 in
Anything other diameter obtained is not acceptable.

That is;
P(x<0.496) and P(x>0.504) are not acceptable.

Now,
P(x<0.496) = P(Z< (0.496-0.497)/0.003)) = P(Z<-0.33)
From Z tables, P(Z<-0.33) = 0.3707

Similarly,
P(x>0.504) = P(Z> (0.504-0.497)/0.003)) = P(Z>2.33)
From Z tables, P(Z>2.33) = 1-0.9901 = 0.0099

Therefore, unacceptable proportion = P(x<0.496)+P(x>0.504) = 0.3707+0.0099 = 0.3806 or 38.06%

A right triangle has a 30o angle. the leg adjacent to the 30o angle measures 25 inches. what is the length of the other leg
adelina 88 [10]
Since the triangle has a 30° angle and a right angle which is 90°, this triangle must be a 30 - 60 - 90 triangle, which is a triangle with special properties. The length of the leg adjacent to the 30° angle is equal to the √3 times x where x is the length of the angle adjacent to the 60<span>° angle. Here is a visual representation:

What is the height of a rectangular prism that has a volume 192 cubic feet and a base with an area of 48 square feet?
Westkost [7]

Answer:

A rectangular prism has 3 measurements: length (l), width (w), and height (h)

The volume of a rectangular prism has the formula: V=lwh

The area of the base of the rectangular prism is its length times its width; or

Area of base = lw

So, the volume of the rectangular prism can be written as:

Volume = area of the base * height

Substitute in your numbers:

192=48*h

h=192/48

h=4

So the height is 4 feet

Step-by-step explanation: Hope this helps. :))

Since the truck is 8 feet long then the longest log able to fit in the truck should be 8 feet as well. However talking reality, we might want to shorten it to make it fit better. Hope this helps!
