9.2 An electrical firm manufactures light bulbs that have a length of life that is approximately normally distributed with a sta

ndard deviation of 40 hours. If a sample of 30 bulbs has an average life of 780 hours, find a 96% confidence interval for the population mean of all bulbs produced by this firm.

Answer:

765,795 = 96%

Step-by-step explanation:

confidence interval = 0.04  

The Za/2 theorem = 1/2 = 0.04/2 = 0.02= /x = 720z

If ; 0.02 = 2.05  then the interval is 780-2.05 x 40/√30 x 780+2.05 x 30/√30 = 765,795 = 96%

We see 40/ √30 which is found in equation of finding the sample mean at point /x = 720z

σ 40/ n√30 = 7.3029674334 and is simply a fraction of /x 720z

By normal distribution we find

The 96% confidence interval for the population mean of all bulbs = 765,795

As 765, x 1.04 = 795 = 765, 795

To find Sampling mean.

The Sampling Distribution of the Sample Mean. If repeated random samples of a given size n are taken from a population of values for a quantitative variable, where the population mean is μ (mu) and the population standard deviation is σ (sigma) then the mean of all sample means (x-bars) is population mean μ (mu).

Confidence Level z*-value

80% 1.28

90% 1.645 (by convention)

95% 1.96

96% 2.05

98% 2.33

99% 2.58

Find the value of $B - A$ if the graph of $Ax + By = 3$ passes through the point $(-7,2),$ and is parallel to the graph of $x +
Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer:

-6

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that since Ax + By = 3 passes through (-7, 2), then if we plug -7 in for x and 2 in for y, the equation is satisfied. So, let's do that:

Ax + By = 3

A * (-7) + B * 2 = 3

-7A + 2B = 3

We also know that this line is parallel to x + 3y = -5, which means their slopes are the same. Let's solve for y in the second equation:

x + 3y = -5

3y = -x - 5

y = (-1/3)x - (5/3)

So, the slope of this line is -1/3, which means the slope of Ax + By = 3 is also -1/3. Let's solve for y in the first equation:

Ax + By = 3

By = -Ax + 3

y = (-A/B)x + 3/B

This means that -A/B = -1/3. So, we have a relationship between A and B:

-A/B = -1/3

A/B = 1/3

B = 3A

Plug 3A in for B into the equation we had where -7A + 2B = 3:

-7A + 2B = 3

-7A + 2 * 3A = 3

-7A + 6A = 3

-A = 3

A = -3

Use this to solve for B:

B = 3A

B = 3 * (-3) = -9

So, B = -9 and A = -3. Then B - A is:

B - A = -9 - (-3) = -9 + 3 = -6

The answer is -6.

Dave bought a new game for $28. The tax rate was 7% How much was the tax and total price (if you can please add work I’m severel
LekaFEV [45]
Okay, let's find out how much the tax was by finding out what 7% of $28 is, we do this by multiplying:

\sf 28\cdot 7\%

Convert 7% into a decimal, we do this by dividing it by 100 because percentages are parts of 100:

\sf 28\cdot 0.07

Multiply:

\sf 1.96

So this is the tax. Add it to the original price to get the total price:

\sf 28+1.96=\boxed{\sf \$ 29.96}
