x-the\ first\ number\\6x-the\ second\ number\\6x+5-the\ third\ number\\\\(x)+(6x)+(6x+5)=61\\x+6x+6x+5=61\\13x+5=61\ \ \ \ |subtract\ 5\ from\ both\ sides\\13x=56\ \ \ \ |divide\ both\ sides\ by\ 13\\\boxed{x=\frac{56}{13}\to x=4\frac{4}{13}-the\ first\ number}\\\boxed{6x=6\cdot\frac{56}{13}=\frac{336}{13}=25\frac{11}{13}-the\ second\ number}\\\boxed{6x+5=25\frac{11}{13}+5=30\frac{11}{13}-the\ third\ number}

The mean life of a particular brand of light bulb is 1200 hours. if you know that at about 95% of this brand of bulbs will last
Snowcat [4.5K]

   First, lookup a standard normal table and see what the z-score is for 0.025 (one half of 100% - 95%) to allow for equal sized tails. You should find that the z-score is 1.96. That means that 95% of the time, the value should be within 1.96 standard deviations of the mean. Now let's calculate the standard deviation. 800 is 800 - 1200 = -400 to the left of the mean of 1200. 1600 is 1600 - 1200 = 400 to the right of the mean of 1200. So we are an equal distance of 400 on both sides of the mean. And we know from the z-score of 1.96, that we're 1.96 standard deviations from the mean. So a little division will give us the standard deviation. Which is: 400 / 1.96 = 204.0816327
   So the standard deviation of the light bulbs is 204</span>
