For a specific type of machine part being produced, the diameter is normally distributed, with a mean of 15.000 cm and a standar

d deviation of 0.030 cm. Machine parts with a diameter more than 2 standard deviations away from the mean are rejected. If 15,000 machine parts are manufactured, how many of these will be rejected?
a. 560
b. 680
c. 750
d. 970

This problem involves Statistics. When you are talking about the number of deviations, you directly refer to what we called the Empirical Rule.

The empirical rule states that 95% of the values will lie within 2 standard deviations of the mean. So 100% - 95% = 5% of the parts will be rejected. So
(0.05)*(15,000) = 750

Therefore, 750 machine parts are rejected. Hope this helps! :D

Two perpendicular lines intersect at the origin. If the slope of the first line is -1/2, what is the equation of the second line
Dovator [93]

bearing in mind that perpendicular lines have <u>negative reciprocal</u> slopes.

now, they both intersect at 0,0, namely they both pass through it, we know the slope of the first one, so

\bf \stackrel{\textit{perpendicular lines have \underline{negative reciprocal} slopes}} {\stackrel{slope}{-\cfrac{1}{2}}\qquad \qquad \qquad \stackrel{reciprocal}{-\cfrac{2}{1}}\qquad \stackrel{negative~reciprocal}{+\cfrac{2}{1}\implies 2}}

so, we're really looking for the equation of a line whose slope is 2, and runs through (0,0).

\bf (\stackrel{x_1}{0}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{0})~\hspace{10em} slope = m\implies 2 \\\\\\ \begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} \textit{point-slope form}\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y-y_1=m(x-x_1) \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}\implies y-0=2(x-0)\implies y=2x

If a quadratic equation with real coefficients has a discriminant of 3 then the two roots must be
lukranit [14]

In a quadratic equation

q(x) = ax^2 + bx + c 

The discriminant is = b^2 - 4ac

We have that discriminant = 3

If b^2 - 4ac > 0, then the roots are real.

If b^2 - 4ac < 0 then the roots are imaginary

<span>In this problem b^2 - 4ac > 0   3 > 0 </span>

then the two roots must be real

Which unit of measure would be appropriate for the volume of a sphere with a radius of 2 meters?
Goryan [66]

The volume of a figure is the quantity of three-dimensional space enclosed by a closed surface, or simpler the number of cubes required to fill it completely.

The basic unit of volume in the metric system is the liter (l).There are 1000 liters per cubic meter.

Howeever, the unit of measure that would be appropriate for the volume of a sphere with a radius of 2 meters is cubic meters. Correct answer: C
