The maintenance department at the main campus of a large state university receives daily requests to replace fluorecent lightbul

bs. The distribution of the number of daily requests is bell-shaped and has a mean of 40 and a standard deviation of 4. Using the 68-95-99.7 rule, what is the approximate percentage of lightbulb replacement requests numbering between 40 and 48?

Answer: 47.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The distribution of the number of daily requests is bell-shaped and has a mean of \mu=40 and a standard deviation of 40\sigma=4.

To find : The approximate percentage of lightbulb replacement requests numbering between 40 and 48.

We can see that 48=40+2(4) i.e. 48 is two standard deviations ( to the right) from the mean.               (1)

And 40 is the mean value (\mu) itself . It means the lower limit lies at the center of the normal curve (at z=0).

It means we need only right the region which is 2 standard deviations from the mean (at z=2).

According to the 68-95-99.7 rule, 95% of the population falls within two deviation from the mean in both left and right side of the normal curve.

Then, the required area will be : \dfrac{95\%}{2}=47.5\%

Hence,  the approximate percentage of lightbulb replacement requests numbering between 40 and 48 = 47.5%

Write an equation of a line wit the given slope and y intercept
Orlov [11]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

the standard equation of a line is in the form y=mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept so if m = 1/4 and b = -3/4 you can just replace those spots giving you y=1/4x+-3/4

Answer:

x^{3} -5x^{2} -6x +8 \frac{-2}{x + 3}

Step-by-step explanation:

            x^{3} -5x^{2} -6x +8 \frac{-2}{x + 3}

x + 3 / x^{4} - 2x^{3}-21x^{2} -10x +22

         -(x^{4} + 3x^{3})

                 -5x^{3} -21x^{2} -10x +22

                 -(-5x^{3} -15x^{2})

                              -6x^{2} -10x +22

                            -(-6x^{2} -18x)

                                            8x +22

                                          -(8x + 24)

                                              \frac{-2}{x + 3}
