Answer:
a) 40.13% probability that a laptop computer can be assembled at this plant in a period of time of less than 19.5 hours.
b) 34.13% probability that a laptop computer can be assembled at this plant in a period of time between 20 hours and 22 hours.
Step-by-step explanation:
When the distribution is normal, we use the z-score formula.
In a set with mean and standard deviation
, the zscore of a measure X is given by:
The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.
In this question:
a)Less than 19.5 hours?
This is the pvalue of Z when X = 19.5. So
has a pvalue of 0.4013.
40.13% probability that a laptop computer can be assembled at this plant in a period of time of less than 19.5 hours.
b)Between 20 hours and 22 hours?
This is the pvalue of Z when X = 22 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 20. So
X = 22
has a pvalue of 0.8413
X = 20
has a pvalue of 0.5
0.8413 - 0.5 = 0.3413
34.13% probability that a laptop computer can be assembled at this plant in a period of time between 20 hours and 22 hours.
<h2>Answer:</h2>
a. 2x^-3 • 4x^2
To solve this using only positive exponents, follow these steps:
i. Rewrite the expression in a clearer form
2x⁻³ . 4x²
ii. The position of the term with negative exponent is changed from denominator to numerator or numerator to denominator depending on its initial position. If it is at the numerator, it is moved to the denominator. If otherwise it is at the denominator, it is moved to the numerator. When this is done, the negative exponent is changed to positive.
In our case, the first term has a negative exponent and it is at the numerator. We therefore move it to the denominator and change the negative exponent to positive as follows;
iii. We then solve the result as follows;
=
Therefore, 2x⁻³ . 4x² =
b. 2x^4 • 4x^-3
i. Rewrite as follows;
2x⁴ . 4x⁻³
ii. The second term has a negative exponent, therefore swap its position and change the negative exponent to a positive one.
iii. Now solve by cancelling out common terms in the numerator and denominator. So we have;
Therefore, 2x⁴ . 4x⁻³ =
c. 2x^3y^-3 • 2x
i. Rewrite as follows;
2x³y⁻³ . 2x
ii. Change position of terms with negative exponents;
iii. Now solve;
Therefore, 2x³y⁻³ . 2x =
