A company manager for a tire manufacturer is in charge of making sure there is the least amount of defective tires. If the tire

manufacturing process is working properly, the average weight of a tire for a 4-door sedan is normally distributed with a mean of 22 pounds and a standard deviation of 0.76 pounds. The manager decides to reject a tire as underweight if it falls more than 1.5 interquartile ranges below the lower quartile of the specified shipment of tires. What proportion of tires will be rejected by this process?

Answer:

0.347% of the total tires will be rejected as underweight.

Step-by-step explanation:

For a standard normal distribution, (with mean 0 and standard deviation 1), the lower and upper quartiles are located at -0.67448 and +0.67448 respectively. Thus the interquartile range (IQR) is 1.34896.

And the manager decides to reject a tire as underweight if it falls more than 1.5 interquartile ranges below the lower quartile of the specified shipment of tires.

1.5 of the Interquartile range = 1.5 × 1.34896 = 2.02344

1.5 of the interquartile range below the lower quartile = (lower quartile) - (1.5 of Interquartile range) = -0.67448 - 2.02344 = -2.69792

The proportion of tires that will fall 1.5 of the interquartile range below the lower quartile = P(x < -2.69792) ≈ P(x < -2.70)

Using data from the normal distribution table

P(x < -2.70) = 0.00347 = 0.347% of the total tires will be rejected as underweight

Hope this Helps!!!

Rectangle PQRS is rotated 90 counterclockwise about the origin what are the coordinates of point Q
inna [77]
You have not provided the diagram/coordinates for point Q, therefore, I cannot provide an exact answer.
However, I can help you with the concept.

When rotating a point 90° counter clock-wise, the following happens:
coordinates of the original point: (x,y)
coordinates of the image point: (-y,x)

Examples:
point (2,5) when rotated 90° counter clock-wise, the coordinates of the image would be (-5,2)

point (1,9) when rotated 90° counter clock-wise, the coordinates of the image would be (-9,1)

point (7,4) when rotated 90° counter clock-wise, the coordinates of the image would be (-4,7)

Therefore, for the given point Q, all you have to do to get the coordinates of the image is apply the transformation:
(x,y) .............> are changed into.............> (-y,x)

Hope this helps :)

What is the equation of the line that passes through (-3, -1) and has a slope of 3/5 ? Put your answer in slope-intercept form.
Verizon [17]

Slope-intercept form: y = mx + b

m = the slope

b = y-intercept.

In this problem,

m = 3/5

b = ?

So far y = 3/5x + b

Let's plug the point (-3, -1) into our slope equation.

-1 = 3/5(-3) + b

Simplify the right side.

-1 = -9/5 + b

Add 9/5 to both sides.

4/5 = b

The equation is: y = 3/5x + 4/5

Answer choice A is correct.

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

Chaz is 3 years younger than 4 times the age of his nephew

n is the age of the nephew.

4 times the age of the nephew.

So you now have 4n.

Now you gotta subtract 3 from 4n which gets you to choice C.

4n - 3
