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!!!

The length of a rectangular pool is 20 feet and the width is 15 feet. The
Ray Of Light [21]

Answer:

$255

Step-by-step explanation:

As, the area of the pool bottom = length x breath

= 20 x 15 = 300 square foot

So for painting

Per square foot = $0.85

So for 300 square foot = $0.85 x 300

= $255

Each day 1/2 of the money that is in bank value is removed. No money is added to the value. Which of the following represent the
Alchen [17]

Answer:

Option C. exponential decay function

Step-by-step explanation:

In this problem we have a exponential function of the form

y=a(b^x)

where

y ---> is the money that is in the bank

x ----> number of days

a ---> is the initial value or y-intercept

b is the base of the exponential function

r ---> is the rate of change

b=(1+r)

In this problem we have that

Each day 1/2 of the money that is in bank value is removed

so

r=-50\%=-50/100=-0.50 ---> is negative because is a decreasing function

The value of b is equal to

b=1-r=1-0.50=0.50

y=a(0.50^x)

The value of b is less than 1

b<1

That means -----> Is a exponential  decay function

Find A, B, and C <br> Help ASAP!<br> {10 points up}
Rama09 [41]

so we have a 60-30-90 triangle (top one)

so since we know 6 is x (the side on the right angle and 60 degrees)

b is 2x or 2(6) = 12

a is x√3 = 6√3


for C I need to use a 45 45 90 triangle

Since b is 12 and its x√2  to find x we should write it as

x√2 = 12

√2     √2  divide by √2

x = 12/√2  but we must rationalize the denominator

12/√2  times √2/√2  = 12√2/2 and that's c
