The mean length was found to be 6.8 cm, and the standard deviation was 0.7 cm. The bolt lengths are normally distributed.a. Determine the percentage of bolts shorter than 5.79 cm.b. Determine the percentage of bolts longer than 7.46 cm.c. Determine the percentage of bolts shorter than 5.79 cm.d. Determine the percentage of bolts that are longer than the nominal length of 6.65 cm.

Answer:

a) P [Z < 5.79] = 7.49 %

b) P [ Z > 7.46 ] = 82.38 %

c) P [ Z > 6.65 ] = 91.68 %

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Distribution

Population Mean μ₀ = 6.8 cm

Standard Deviation of population σ = 0,7 cm

a) P [ Z < 5.79 ] = ??

z value ?

z = ( 5,79 - 6,8 ) / 0,7 ⇒ z = - 1.01 / 0,7 ⇒ z = - 1.442

From z table we get:

z = - 1.442 ⇒ P [Z < 5.79] = 0.0749 or

P [Z < 5.79] = 7.49 %

b) P [ Z > 7.46 ]

z = ( 7.46 - 6,8 ) / 0,7 ⇒ z = 0.66 / 0.7 ⇒ z = 0.942

From z table

P [ Z > 7.46 ] = 0.8238 or P [ Z > 7.46 ] = 82.38 %

c) P [ Z > 6.65]

z = ( 6.65 - 6.8 ) / 0.7 ⇒ z = - 0,15 / 0.7 ⇒ z = - 0.214

From table we get area between 6.65 and the mean, therefore we have to add ( 0.5 ) half of total area

Then from z table

z = - 0,214 ⇒ 0,4168

Then P [ Z > 6.65 ] = 0,4168 + 0.5

P [ Z > 6.65 ] = 0.9168 or

P [ Z > 6.65 ] = 91.68 %

P [ Z > 6,65 ] = 0,5 +

Because the x numbers are used more than once it cannot be a function. As for the the relation if its going through the origin then it would be a relation. im going to go with D

Please help... need help ASAP due today... which ones are the answers?

andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

Choices 1 and 4 are correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

We first need to find what the slope of the line is. That way, we can find out which possible answers are perpendicular to it:

$\frac{4-(-2)}{3-1}=\frac{6}{2}=3$

Since we now have the slope, we need the negative reciprocal of it. Remember: if x is the slope, it's negative reciprocal will be $-\frac{1}{x}$ . Therefore, if the line's slope is 3, then we need to find answers with a slope of $-\frac{1}{3}$ .

The first answer is correct, as you have marked. The second answer, while written a little weirdly, does show the slope as 3, which we know as wrong. The third choice is not correct, however. This equation is written in point-slope form, where $y-y_{1}=m(x-x_{1})$ . The only variable we have to worry about is m, which, in the third choice, is 3. The fourth answer is correct, which sounds weird at first. Let's put that equation into slope-intercept form:

$x+3y=9\\3y=9-x\\y=3-\frac{1}{3}x\\y=-\frac{1}{3}x+3$

Equations like these can be real sneaky, so it's important not to jump to conclusions with them.

Find the measure of arc DF (with an explanation of how to solve please!)

allochka39001 [22]

Answer:

mDF = 90°

(Assuming arc mCE is 5x + 10)

Step-by-step explanation:

When we have two chords crossing in a circle, there is a property where the angle in the cross point is equal half the sum of the corresponding arcs.

So in this case, we have:

70° = (mCE + mDF)/2

Assuming mCE is 5x + 10, we have:

70 = (5x + 10 + 11x + 2)/2

70 = (16x + 12)/2

70 = 8x + 6

8x = 64

x = 8

So the arc mDF is:

mDF = 11x + 2 = 11 * 8 + 2 = 90°
