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!!!

Answer:

<u>Third Option</u>: y = \frac{5}{4}x

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the points on the graph, (4, 5) and (-4, -5):

In order to determine the equation of the given graph in slope-intercept form, y = mx + b:

Use the given points to solve for the slope:

Let (x₁, y₁) = (-4, -5)

(x₂, y₂) = (4, 5)

m = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁)

m = \frac{5 - (5)}{4 - (-4)}  = \frac{5 + 5}{4 + 4}  = \frac{10}{8} = \frac{5}{4}

Therefore, the slope of the line is: m = \frac{5}{4}.

Next, use one of the given points on the graph, (4, 5) to solve for the y-intercept, b:

y = mx + b

5 = \frac{5}{4} (4) + b

5 = 5 + b

5 - 5 = 5 - 5 + b

0 = b

Therefore, the linear equation in slope-intercept form is: y = \frac{5}{4}x.  The correct answer is Option 3.

1.11(5) - 11(4) =
Natali5045456 [20]

Answer:

1) 11

2) -8

3) 30

15) 80x - 128

16) 138y

Step-by-step explanation:

For these problems, you will need to use either PEMDAS or distributive property.

PEMDAS stands for parentheses, exponents, multiplication/division, addition/subtraction. Problems must be solved by going in order of the acronym, always starting with anything in parentheses first.

Example of PEMDAS:

2) 8(-3 + 2)

Solve for what's inside the parentheses first. There are no exponents, multiplication, or division within the parentheses so next would be addition and subtraction.

-3 + 2 = -1 so the problem will now look like:

8 (-1)

Next, PEMDAS says to look for exponents. There are none. Multiplication and division are next. 8 is being multiplied by -1 so lets try that:

8 × -1 = -8

-8

Distributive property is when you take the number being multiplied on the outside of the parentheses and multiply it to each individual number within the parentheses.

Example of distributive property:

2) 8(-3 + 2)

Multiply the number on the outside of the parentheses, 8, to each number within the parentheses, -3 and 2:

8 × -3 and 8 × 2

The problem should look like:

-24 + 16

Then solve:

-8

Use whichever method you are most comfortable with as both will produce the same answer. I will solve the first few and the last few to help you.

1)

11(5) - 11(4)

55 - 44

11

3)

6(9) - 4(6)

54 - 24

30

15) *You must use distributive property for these last problems as you cannot add or subtract numbers and variables*

16(5x - 8)

80x - 128

*You can only combine like terms so this is fully simplified*

16)

23y(2 + 4)

46y + 92y

138y

Michmoo Computer Company sells computers and computer parts by mail. The company assures its customers that products are mailed
Anastaziya [24]

Answer: (60.858, 69.142)

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula to find the confidence interval for mean :

\overline{x}\pm z_c\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}} , where \overline{x} is the sample mean , \sigma is the population standard deviation , n is the sample size and z_c is the two-tailed test value for z.

Let x represents the time taken to mail products for all orders received at the office of this company.

As per given , we have

Confidence level : 95%

n= 62

sample mean : \overline{x}=65 hours

Population standard deviation : \sigma=18 hours

z-value for 93% confidence interval: z_c=1.8119  [using z-value table]

Now, 93% confidence the mean time taken to mail products for all orders received at the office of this company :-

65\pm (1.8119)\dfrac{18}{\sqrt{62}}\\\\ 65\pm4.142\\\\=(65-4.142,\ 65+4.142)\\\\= (60.858,\ 69.142)

Thus , 93% confidence the mean time taken to mail products for all orders received at the office of this company : (60.858, 69.142)

If h(x) = 6 – x, what is the value of (h circle h) (10)?<br> –4<br> –2<br> 10<br> 16
Ganezh [65]

Answer:

10

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to find the value of ;

h circle h(10)

This mean we are to put h in h, the find the function of 10

we have this as;

6-(6-x)

= 6-6 + x = x

Now, replace the x by 10; so we have h circle h(10)
