Wires manufactured for use in a computer system are specified to have resistances between .12 and .14 ohms. The actual measured

resistances of wires produced by company A have a normal probability distribution with mean .13 ohm and standard deviation .005 ohm. a. (15 pts) What is the probability that a randomly selected wire from company A’s production will meet the specifications? z = (X-µ)/σ P(X<.12) = P(z<( (.12- .14)/.005) = b. (10 pts) If four of these wires are used in each computer system and all are selected from company A. What is the probability that all four in a randomly selected system will meet the specifications?

Answer: a) 0.9544996

b) 0.9999366

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The actual measured resistances of wires produced by company A have a normal probability distribution with mean \mu=0.13 ohm and standard deviation s=0.005 ohm.

Wires manufactured for use in a computer system are specified to have resistances between .12 and .14 ohms.

Let x be the random variable that represents the value of resistance in wires.

Using formula for z-score , z=\dfrac{x-\mu}{s}

The z-value at x= 0.12 will be

z=\dfrac{0.12-0.13}{0.005}=-2

The z-value at x= 0.14 will be

z=\dfrac{0.14-0.13}{0.005}=2

The p-value : P(-2

=0.9772498-(1-P(z

Hence, the probability that a randomly selected wire from company A’s production will meet the specifications = 0.9544996

b) Sample size : n= 4

Using formula for z-score , z=\dfrac{x-\mu}{\dfrac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}

The z-value at x= 0.12 will be

z=\dfrac{0.12-0.13}{\dfrac{.005}{\sqrt{4}}}=-4

The z-value at x= 0.14 will be

z=\dfrac{0.14-0.13}{\dfrac{.005}{\sqrt{4}}}=4

The p-value : P(-4

=0.9999683-(1-P(z

The probability that all four in a randomly selected system will meet the specifications = 0.9999366

Solve the equation <img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=8x%5E2%3D-36" id="TexFormula1" title="8x^2=-36" alt="8x^2=-36" align="absmi
chubhunter [2.5K]

Answer: 4(2x²+9) or i\frac{3\sqrt{2} }{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve the equation by factoring, we want to set the equation to zero. In order to have the equation equal to zero, we want to add both sides by 36.

8x²=-36            [add both sides by 36]

8x²+36=0

When it comes to factoring, we want to pull out numbers or variables that are common in each term.

8x²+36=0         [take out a 4 in each term]

4(2x²+9)=0

It may seem that 2x²+9 can be factored further, it actually can't. This tells us that the factored form of the equation is 4(2x²+9)=0.

To solve the equation, we want to find the value of x. We already know the graph does not cross the x-axis because the y-intercept or vertex is (0,9).

4(2x²+9)=0       [divide both sides by 4]

2x²+9=0            [subtract both sides by 9]

2x²=-9               [divide both sides by 2]

x²=-9/2              [square root both sides]

x=\sqrt{-\frac{9}{2} } or x=i\frac{3\sqrt{2} }{2}

Terrance made a list of his expenses. He is creating a check-off matrix to organize when his bills are due. A check-off matrix i
valkas [14]

Complete the chart  by marking each of the expenses in the correct cell depending on whether the expense occurs montlhy, quarterly, annually, etc. as shown in the chart.

<h3>What is a check-off matrix?</h3>

This is a type of chart that is completed by adding X to the cells. In the case of expenses, check-off matrixes help you to visualize how often every expense occurs, and therefore it can be useful to control or monitor expenses.

This type of matrix often includes:

-Columns with the months of the year or the initals of these. June = J.

-Rows that show the expenses a person has.

<h3>How to do a check-off matrix?</h3>
  1. List the expenses
  2. Make an X in each of the cells that the each expense should occur.
  3. Verify the information once the chart is finished.

Below you can find the complete chart:
