The computer cost is $3000

Step-by-step explanation:

The given is:

  • The ratio of the price of a tv to the price of a computer is 13 : 15
  • The tv 400 dollars cheaper than the computer

We need to find the cost of the computer

Assume that the price of the computer is $x

∵ The ratio between the prices of the tv and the computer is 13 : 15

∵ The price of the computer is $x

∵ The price of the tv 400 dollars cheaper than the computer

- That means the price of the tv is less than the price of the

  computer by $400

∴ The price of the tv is $(x - 400)

By using the ratio method

→  tv              :    computer

→  13              :    15

→  (x - 400)   :    x

By using the cross multiplication

∴ 15(x - 400) = 13(x)

- Simplify the left hand side

∴ 15x - 6000 = 13x

- Add 6000 to both sides

∴ 15x = 13x + 6000

- Subtract 13x from both sides

∴ 2x = 6000

- Divide both sides by 2

∴ x = 3000

The computer cost is $3000

Evaluate Combination (6,6)
andrew11 [14]

Answer:

nCx = \frac{n!}{x! (n-x)!}

On this case n =6 and x =6 we got:

6C6 = \frac{6!}{6! (6-6)!} = \frac{6!}{6! 0!}= \frac{6!}{6!}=1

Step-by-step explanation:

The utility for the combination formula is in order to find the number of ways to order a set of elements

For this case we want to find the following expression:

6C6

And the general formula for combination is given by:

nCx = \frac{n!}{x! (n-x)!}

On this case n =6 and x =6 we got:

6C6 = \frac{6!}{6! (6-6)!} = \frac{6!}{6! 0!}= \frac{6!}{6!}=1

Assume the time required to complete a product is normally distributed with a mean 3.2 hours and standard deviation .4 hours. Ho
Alex787 [66]

Answer: 3.712 hours or more

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X be the random variable that denotes the time required to complete a product.

X is normally distributed.

X\sim N(\mu=3.2\text{ hours},\ \sigma=0.4\text{ hours} )

Let x be the times it takes to complete a random unit in order to be in the top 10% (right tail) of the time distribution.

Then, P(\dfrac{X-\mu}{\sigma}>\dfrac{x-\mu}{\sigma})=0.10

P(z>\dfrac{x-3.2}{\sigma})=0.10\ \ \ [z=\dfrac{x-\mu}{\sigma}]

As, P(z>1.28)=0.10  [By z-table]

Then,

\dfrac{x-3.2}{0.4}=1.28\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=0.4\times1.28+3.2\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=3.712

So, it will take 3.712 hours or more to complete a random unit in order to be in the top 10% (right tail) of the time distribution.
