Answer:

The designed life should be of 21,840 vehicle miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Probability Distribution

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the z-score 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 p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Mean of 35,000 vehicle miles and a standard deviation of 7,000 vehicle miles.

This means that \mu = 35000, \sigma = 7000

Find its designed life if a .97 reliability is desired.

The designed life should be the 100 - 97 = 3rd percentile(we want only 3% of the vehicles to fail within this time), which is X when Z has a p-value of 0.03, so X when Z = -1.88.

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

-1.88 = \frac{X - 35000}{7000}

X - 35000 = -1.88*7000

X = 21840

The designed life should be of 21,840 vehicle miles.

f(-2) = 2(-2)² - 8(-2) + 6 = 30

f(-1) = 2(-1)² - 8(-1) + 6 = 16

f(0) = 2(0)² - 8(0) + 6 = 6

f(1) = 2(1)² - 8(1) + 6 = 0

f(2) = 2(2)² - 8(2) + 6 = -2

Which of the following is the complete list of roots for the polynomial function f(x)=(x2+6x+8)(x2+6x*13)
anygoal [31]
Factorise x^2+6x+8=0 to get (x+4)(x+2)=0
Solve to get x=-4, x=-2
Factorise x^2+6x+13=0 (I assumed you mistyped and wrote * instead of +)
Use the quadratic formula and you find that there are no real roots so the answer for this is just x=-4, x=-2
