The auto repair on First Street charges a flat fee of $15 plus $10 an hour for servicing a car. The auto repair shop on Second A

venue charges no flat fee but $15 an hour for servicing a car. Malik finds that when he gets his car serviced at either shop, he pays the same amount of money. How many hours does Malik's car need to be serviced?

Answer:

3 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's express number of hours required for servicing as: x

The auto repair on First Street charges a flat fee of $15 plus $10 an hour for servicing a car.

This is expressed mathematically as:

$15 + $10 × x

= 15 + 10x

The auto repair shop on Second Avenue charges no flat fee but $15 an hour for servicing a car

This is expressed as:

$15 × x

= 15x

The number of hours Malik's car needs to be serviced in order to be able to pay the same amount of money at both shops is calculated as:

Charges by Auto repair shop on First street = Charges by Auto repair shop on Second Avenue

15 + 10x = 15x

15 = 15x - 10x

15 = 5x

5x = 15

x = 15/5

x = 3 hours

Therefore, the number of hours Malik's car needs to be serviced in order to be able to pay the same amount of money at either auto repair shops is 3 hours

If x−2=13, then what is the value of x2−4x+4?
Rus_ich [418]

Answer:

169

Step-by-step explanation:

x−2=13

First find the value of x

x-2+2 = 13+2

x = 15

Now substitute into the expression

x^2 -4x+4

15^2 -4*15+4

225 - 60+4

165+4

Consider the population of all 1-gallon cans of dusty rose paint manufactured by a particular paint company. Suppose that a norm
Artemon [7]

Answer:

a) 0.5.

b) 0.8413

c) 0.8413

d) 0.6826

e) 0.9332

f) 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

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 problem, we have that:

\mu = 6, \sigma = 0.2

(a) P(x > 6) =

This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 6. So

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{6-6}{0.2}

Z = 0

Z = 0 has a pvalue of 0.5.

1 - 0.5 = 0.5.

(b) P(x < 6.2)=

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 6.2. So

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{6.2-6}{0.2}

Z = 1

Z = 1 has a pvalue of 0.8413

(c) P(x ≤ 6.2) =

In the normal distribution, the probability of an exact value, for example, P(X = 6.2), is always zero, which means that P(x ≤ 6.2) = P(x < 6.2) = 0.8413.

(d) P(5.8 < x < 6.2) =

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 6.2 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X  5.8.

X = 6.2

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{6.2-6}{0.2}

Z = 1

Z = 1 has a pvalue of 0.8413

X = 5.8

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{5.8-6}{0.2}

Z = -1

Z = -1 has a pvalue of 0.1587

0.8413 - 0.1587 = 0.6826

(e) P(x > 5.7) =

This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 5.7.

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{5.8-6}{0.2}

Z = -1.5

Z = -1.5 has a pvalue of 0.0668

1 - 0.0668 = 0.9332

(f) P(x > 5) =

This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 5.

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{5-6}{0.2}

Z = -5

Z = -5 has a pvalue of 0.

1 - 0 = 1
