Answer: A. 0.4207

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The lifetime of a 2-volt non-rechargeable battery in constant use has a Normal distribution with a mean of 516 hours and a standard deviation of 20 hours.

i.e. \mu=516

\sigma=20

Let x denotes the lifetime of a 2-volt non-rechargeable battery in constant use.

Then , the probability of batteries with lifetimes exceeding 520 hours is approximately:-

P(X>520)=1-P(x\leq520)\\\\=1-P(\dfrac{x-\mu}{\sigma}\leq\dfrac{520-516}{20})\\\\=1-P(z\leq0.2)\ \ [\because\ z=\dfrac{x-\mu}{\sigma}]\\\\ =1-0.5793\ \ [\text{By z-table}]\\\\=0.4207

Hence, the proportion of batteries with lifetimes exceeding 520 hours is approximately 0.4207.

∴ Correct option is A. 0.4207

erik [133]

Answer:

x=1, y=8

Step-by-step explanation:

Plug y=8x into y=10x-4.

8x=10x-4

Subtract 10x from each side.

-2x=-2

Divide each side by -2.

x=1

Plug x=1 into y=8x.

y=8(1)

y=8

notka56 [123]

Answer:

Behavioral modality of measurement

Step-by-step explanation:

Observing a 3rd grade student for 30 minutes as to how many time he leaves his seat without permission is a clear example of using behavioral modality of measurement.

In this modality of measurement the behavior of the object or system is observed when it is put into action.

This example shows as to what will happen or what is supposed to take place when a 3rd grade student is is seated and observed for 30 minutes. It counts as to how many times he leaves his seat in reaction to his stimulus from the environment.

coldgirl [10]


We know that both groups feed grass hay in the morning, so that's 100/100.

First group feeds alfalfa and grass in the evening

Second group feeds alfalfa and oat hay in the evening. 

The estimated probability that horse owners feed grass hay the morning (AM) is 100%.

The estimated probability that horse owners feed alfalfa + oat hay in the pm is 28/100 or 28% (C)
