Answer:

a) For this case the mean is given by:

E(X) = \frac{a+b}{2}= \frac{20+40}{2}= 35

The variance is given by:

Var(X) = \frac{(b-a)^2}{12}= \frac{(40-20)^2}{12} =33.33

And the deviation would be:

Sd(X) = \sqrt{33.33}= 5.774

b) For this case we want to find this probability:

P(X

And we can use the cumulative distribution function given by:

F(X) = \frac{x-a}{b-a} , a \leq X \leq b

And using this we got:

P(X

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we define the random variable X as the hickness of a protective coating applied to a conductor and we know that the distribution of X is given by:

X \sim Unif (a= 20, b=40)

Part a

For this case the mean is given by:

E(X) = \frac{a+b}{2}= \frac{20+40}{2}= 35

The variance is given by:

Var(X) = \frac{(b-a)^2}{12}= \frac{(40-20)^2}{12} =33.33

And the deviation would be:

Sd(X) = \sqrt{33.33}= 5.774

Part b

For this case we want to find this probability:

P(X

And we can use the cumulative distribution function given by:

F(X) = \frac{x-a}{b-a} , a \leq X \leq b

And using this we got:

P(X

What is the surface area of this design 5,8,4,8,4 inch
Gwar [14]

Answer:

Surface area is the sum of the areas of all faces (or surfaces) on a 3D shape. A cuboid has 6 rectangular faces. To find the surface area of a cuboid, add the areas of all 6 faces. We can also label the length (l), width (w), and height (h) of the prism and use the formula, SA=2lw+2lh+2hw, to find the surface area.

What are the roots of the polynomial equation? (picture below)
Marat540 [252]

Answer:

x = - 9, x = 0, x = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

\frac{1}{2} x(x - 7)(x + 9) = 0 ← in standard form

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

\frac{1}{2} x = 0 ⇒ x = 0

x - 7 = 0 ⇒ x = 7

x + 9 = 0 ⇒ x = - 9

Diego is solving the inequality 100 − 3x ≥ -50. He solves the equation 100 − 3x = -50 and gets x = 50. What is the solution to t
ZanzabumX [31]

Answer:

x≤50

Step-by-step explanation:

100-3x≥-50

subtracting 100 at both side on inequality

-100+100-3x≥--50-100

-3x≥-150

Dividing both sides by 3

-3x/3≥-150/3

-x≥--50

Adding 50 on both sides

-x+50≥-50+50

-x+50≥0

Adding x on both sides

-x+x+50≥0+x

50≥x

so,

x≤50
