Assuming you mean mixed fractions, we have

$5\dfrac{1}{6}=5+\dfrac{1}{6}$

and

$3\dfrac{5}{6}=3+\dfrac{5}{6}$

So,

$5\dfrac{1}{6}-3\dfrac{5}{6}=5+\dfrac{1}{6}-3-\dfrac{5}{6}=2-\dfrac{4}{6}=2-\dfrac{2}{3}$

If you want to write this as a fraction, you have

$2-\dfrac{2}{3} = \dfrac{6}{3}-\dfrac{2}{3}=\dfrac{4}{3}$

If you want to write this as a mixed fraction, you have

$2-\dfrac{2}{3}=1+\dfrac{3}{3}-\dfrac{2}{3}=1+\dfrac{1}{3}=1\dfrac{1}{3}$

<h3>Reflection of coordinates</h3>

Reflection is a transformation technique that changes the position of an object on an xy-plane.

If the function f(x) is reflected over y-axis, the resulting function is y = f(-x). Given the following function;

f(x) = -2/7(5/3)x

This can also be written as;

f(x) = -10/21 x

Replace x as -x

f(-x) = -10/21(-x)

f(-x) = g(x) = 10/21x

Hence the values of the function if the function f(x) is reflected over y-axis is g(x) = 10/21x

A large manufacturing plant uses lightbulbs with lifetimes that are normally distributed with a mean of 1200 hours and a standar

Answer:

The bulbs should be replaced each 1060.5 days.

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:

$\mu = 1200, \sigma = 60$
