Answer:

The graph is the empty number line (no solution)

Step-by-step explanation:

Your expression is (x-8)² < 0. There are no real numbers that give a negative value when squared. There is NO SOLUTION. The graph is empty.

Comment on quadratic inequalities

In general the inequality (x-a)(x-b) < 0 will have a solution when one factor is negative and the other is positive. In general, that will be the case for values of x that are strictly between a and b. In your inequality, that would require you graph numbers that are between 8 and 8. There are none.

Option d is right

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X be the time spent on a treadmill in the health club

Given that research shows that on average, patrons spend an average of 42.5 minutes on the treadmill, with a standard deviation of 5.4 minutes

Also given that X is normal

the probability that randomly selected individual would spent between 30 and 40 minutes on the treadmill.

$= P(30$

round off to two decimals tog et

the probability that randomly selected individual would spent between 30 and 40 minutes on the treadmill is 0.31

Hence option d is right

vredina [299]

Answer:

2.35%

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean number of months (M) = 39 months

Standard deviation (S) = 10 months

According to the 68-95-99.7 rule, 95% of the data is comprised within two standard deviations of the mean (39-20 to 39+20 months), while 99.7% of the data is comprised within two standard deviations of the mean (39-30 to 39+30 months).

Therefore, the percentage of cars still in service from 59 to 69 months is:

$P_{59\ to\ 69}=\frac{P_{9\ to\ 69}-P_{19\ to\ 59}}{2} \\P_{59\ to\ 69}=\frac{99.7-95}{2}\\P_{59\ to\ 69}=2.35\%$

The approximate percentage of cars that remain in service between 59 and 69 months is 2.35%.
