Answer:

Range of values containing 70% of the population of x is [-7.1364 , 7.1364 ]

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a large population of variable x is characterized by its known mean value of 6.1 units and a standard deviation of 1.0 units and a normal distribution.

Since, X ~ N(\mu=6.1 ,\sigma^{2}= 1.0^{2})

The z score probability distribution is given by;

             Z = \frac{X-\mu}{\sigma} ~ N(0,1)

As we are given that we have to find the range of values containing 70% of the population of x, which means we will use 30% are on either side of the mean, i.e.;

 P(X < x) = 0.30

 P( \frac{X-\mu}{\sigma} < \frac{x-6.1}{1} ) = 0.30

 P(Z < x-6.1) = 0.30

Now, in z normal table, the critical value of x having area less than 30% is 1.0364 . i.e;

              x - 6.1 = 1.0364

               x = 7.1364

So, the range of values containing 70% of the population of x is [-7.1364 , 7.1364 ] .

Answer:

-6.134 to +6.134

Step-by-step explanation:

given that a large population of variable x is characterized by its known mean value of 6.1 units and a standard deviation of 1.0 units and a normal distribution

X is Normal with mean  =6.1 and std dev = 1 unit

We are to determine the range of values containing 70% of the population of x

We know that normal distribution curve is bell shaped symmetrical about the mean.

So to find 70% range we can use 35% on either side of the mean

Using std normal distribution table the value of z for which probability from 0 to z is 0.35 is 1.034

Hence corresponding x value is

x=6.1+1.034*1\\x=6.134

i.e. 70% values lie between

-6.134 to +6.134

What is the solution of 3+ x-2/x-3 less than or equal to 0
bagirrra123 [75]

Answer:

The solution set consists of all the real numbers smaller than or equal to 11/4:

x\leq \frac{11}{4}

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to solve for x (that means isolate x on one side of the inequality symbol) in the following inequality:

3+\frac{x-2}{x-3} \leq 0\\\frac{x-2}{x-3} \leq -3\\x-2\leq -3\,(x-3)\\x-2\leq -3x+9\\x+3x\leq 9+2\\4x\leq 11\\x\leq \frac{11}{4}

Find three consecutive even integers have a sum of 48.
yan [13]

Answer:

14, 16, 18

Step-by-step explanation:

x + (x+2) + (x+4)= 48

3x + 6 = 48

3x = 42

x = 14

x+2 = 16

x+4 = 18
