4- A manufacturing process produces items whose weights are normally distributed. It is known that 22.57% of all the items produ
galben [10]

Answer:

\\ \mu = 118\;grams\;and\;\sigma=30\;grams

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to use z-scores and a standard normal table to find the values that corresponds to the probabilities given, and then to solve a system of equations to find \\ \mu\;and\;\sigma.

<h3>First Case: items from 100 grams to the mean</h3>

For finding probabilities that corresponds to z-scores, we are going to use here a <u>Standard Normal Table </u><u><em>for cumulative probabilities from the mean </em></u><em>(Standard normal table. Cumulative from the mean (0 to Z), 2020, in Wikipedia) </em>that is, the "probability that a statistic is between 0 (the mean) and Z".

A value of a z-score for the probability P(100<x<mean) = 22.57% = 0.2257 corresponds to a value of z-score = 0.6, that is, the value is 0.6 standard deviations from the mean. Since this value is <em>below the mean</em> ("the items produced weigh between 100 grams up to the mean"), then the z-score is negative.

Then

\\ z = -0.6\;and\;z = \frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

\\ -0.6 = \frac{100-\mu}{\sigma} (1)

<h3>Second Case: items from the mean up to 190 grams</h3>

We can apply the same procedure as before. A value of a z-score for the probability P(mean<x<190) = 49.18% = 0.4918 corresponds to a value of z-score = 2.4, which is positive since it is after the mean.

Then

\\ z =2.4\;and\; z = \frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

\\ 2.4 = \frac{190-\mu}{\sigma} (2)

<h3>Solving a system of equations for values of the mean and standard deviation</h3>

Having equations (1) and (2), we can form a system of two equations and two unknowns values:

\\ -0.6 = \frac{100-\mu}{\sigma} (1)

\\ 2.4 = \frac{190-\mu}{\sigma} (2)

Rearranging these two equations:

\\ -0.6*\sigma = 100-\mu (1)

\\ 2.4*\sigma = 190-\mu (2)

To solve this system of equations, we can multiply (1) by -1, and them sum the two resulting equation:

\\ 0.6*\sigma = -100+\mu (1)

\\ 2.4*\sigma = 190-\mu (2)

Summing both equations, we obtain the following equation:

\\ 3.0*\sigma = 90

Then

\\ \sigma = \frac{90}{3.0} = 30

To find the value of the mean, we need to substitute the value obtained for the standard deviation in equation (2):

\\ 2.4*30 = 190-\mu (2)

\\ 2.4*30 - 190 = -\mu

\\ -2.4*30 + 190 = \mu

\\ \mu = 118

Al sumar fracciones con igual denominador, debemos sumar numerador con numerador y denominador con denominador. Verdadero o fals
Ahat [919]

Answer:

La respuesta es falso.  

Step-by-step explanation:

La respuesta es falso.  

Cuando se suman fraccciones con igual denominador, se suman los numeradores (numerador con numerador) y se deja el mismo denominador (el cual es común en ambos). Por ejemplo, la suma de 1/5 + 3/5 da como resultado:    

\frac{1}{5} + \frac{3}{5} = \frac{1 + 3}{5} = \frac{4}{5}

En el caso de fracciones con diferentes denominadores, tampoco se suma numerador con numerador y denominador con denominador. En ese caso se debe encontrar el mínimo común múltiplo.

 

Por lo tanto, la respuesta es falso.

Espero que te sea de utilidad!

The explicit rule for the arithmetic sequence shown in the graph is a↓n=9.5+2(n-1)
Virty [35]

Answer:

True.

Step-by-step explanation:

The explicit form for an arithmetic sequence is:

a_n=a_1+d(n-1)

where a_1 is the first term and d is the common difference.

The common difference here is 2 because the y's are going up by 2 while the x's are going up by 1.

Yes, the common difference is the slope.

So we have d=2.

The first term is 9.5 because that is what happens when x=1.

x is n.

y is a_n.

So the answer is true.

----

You can also verify by plugging in numbers for n and see if you get the outputs mentioned in the pairs given:

Let n=1:

a_1=9.5+2(1-1)

a_1=9.5+2(0)

a_1=9.5+0

a_1=9.5

Let n=2:

a_2=9.5+2(2-1)

a_2=9.5+2(1)

a_2=9.5+2

a_2=11.5

Let n=3:

a_3=9.5+2(3-1)

a_3=9.5+2(2)

a_3=9.5+4

a_3=13.5

Let n=4:

a_4=9.5+2(4-1)

a_4=9.5+2(3)

a_4=9.5+6

a_4=15.5

Let n=5:

a_5=9.5+2(5-1)

a_5=9.5+2(4)

a_5=9.5+8

a_5=17.5

Let n=6:

a_6=9.5+2(6-1)

a_6=9.5+2(5)

a_6=9.5+10

a_6=19.5

We have confirmed that we get all 6 of the mentioned points using the equation they gave.
