A company manufactures televisions. The average weight of the televisions is 5 pounds with a standard deviation of 0.1 pound. As
Semenov [28]

Answer:

0.2564\text{ pounds}

Step-by-step explanation:

The 90th percentile of a normally distributed curve occurs at 1.282 standard deviations. Similarly, the 10th percentile of a normally distributed curve occurs at -1.282 standard deviations.

To find the X percentile for the television weights, use the formula:

X=\mu +k\sigma, where \mu is the average of the set, k is some constant relevant to the percentile you're finding, and \sigma is one standard deviation.

As I mentioned previously, 90th percentile occurs at 1.282 standard deviations. The average of the set and one standard deviation is already given. Substitute \mu=5, k=1.282, and \sigma=0.1:

X=5+(1.282)(0.1)=5.1282

Therefore, the 90th percentile weight is 5.1282 pounds.

Repeat the process for calculating the 10th percentile weight:

X=5+(-1.282)(0.1)=4.8718

The difference between these two weights is 5.1282-4.8718=\boxed{0.2564\text{ pounds}}.

Write the linear eqaution in slope form for x and y. 1/3x+y=-2
Anit [1.1K]

Answer:

y = -1/3x -2

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope intercept form of a line is

y= mx+b

We need to solve for y

1/3x +y = -2

Subtract 1/3x from each side

1/3x -1/3x +y =-1/3x -2

y = -1/3x -2

A football stadium splits ticket sales in ratio of 3 : 4 between the away team and the home team. The home team make £36,000. Wh
Naddika [18.5K]
<h3>Answer is 63,000 pounds</h3>

The ratio 3:4 means for every 3 pounds made in away team tickets versus home team tickets. Multiply both sides by 9000 to have that 4 turn into 36000. The ratio 3:4 will then turn into 27000:36000

With this new ratio, we see that the away team pulls in 27000 and the home team pulls in 36000. Add the two amounts to get the final answer

27000+36000 = 63000

------------

We could alternatively add 3 and 4 (from the ratio 3:4) to get 3+4 = 7. Then multiply by that same scale factor 9000 getting 9000*7 = 63000.
