Answer:

(a) By cosine rule, /PQ/2=202+152−2×20×15×cos145°

= 400+225−600cos145°

= 625+600×0.8192

= 491.52+625

/PQ/2=1116.52⟹/PQ/=1116.52−−−−−−√=33.41

≊33km ( to the nearest whole number)

(b) By sine rule,

sin<QPR15=sin14533.41

sin<QPR=15sin14533.41

sin<QPR=15×0.573633.41=0.2575

<QPR=14.92°

∴ Bearing of Q from P = 25° + 14.92° = 39.92°.

≊40° (to nearest whole number)

Rockwell hardness of pins of a certain type is known to have a mean value of 50 and a standard deviation of 1.2.a. If the distri

zalisa [80]

Answer:

a

$P(\= X \ge 51 ) =0.0062$

b

$P(\= X \ge 51 ) = 0$

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

The mean value is $\mu = 50$

The standard deviation is $\sigma = 1.2$

Considering question a

The sample size is n = 9

Generally the standard error of the mean is mathematically represented as

$\sigma_x = \frac{\sigma }{\sqrt{n} }$

=> $\sigma_x = \frac{ 1.2 }{\sqrt{9} }$

=> $\sigma_x = 0.4$

Generally the probability that the sample mean hardness for a random sample of 9 pins is at least 51 is mathematically represented as

$P(\= X \ge 51 ) = P( \frac{\= X - \mu }{\sigma_{x}} \ge \frac{51 - 50 }{0.4 } )$

$\frac{\= X -\mu}{\sigma } = Z (The \ standardized \ value\ of \ \= X )$

$P(\= X \ge 51 ) = P( Z \ge 2.5 )$

=> $P(\= X \ge 51 ) =1- P( Z < 2.5 )$

From the z table the area under the normal curve to the left corresponding to 2.5 is

$P( Z < 2.5 ) = 0.99379$

=> $P(\= X \ge 51 ) =1-0.99379$

=> $P(\= X \ge 51 ) =0.0062$

Considering question b

The sample size is n = 40

Generally the standard error of the mean is mathematically represented as

$\sigma_x = \frac{\sigma }{\sqrt{n} }$

=> $\sigma_x = \frac{ 1.2 }{\sqrt{40} }$

=> $\sigma_x = 0.1897$

Generally the (approximate) probability that the sample mean hardness for a random sample of 40 pins is at least 51 is mathematically represented as

$P(\= X \ge 51 ) = P( \frac{\= X - \mu }{\sigma_x} \ge \frac{51 - 50 }{0.1897 } )$

=> $P(\= X \ge 51 ) = P(Z \ge 5.2715 )$

=> $P(\= X \ge 51 ) = 1- P(Z < 5.2715 )$

From the z table the area under the normal curve to the left corresponding to 5.2715 and

=> $P(Z < 5.2715 ) = 1$

So

$P(\= X \ge 51 ) = 1- 1$

=> $P(\= X \ge 51 ) = 0$

If f(x) = -3x - 5 and g(x)= 4x - 2, find (f-g) (x).

Eddi Din [679]

Answer:

$-7x-3$

Step-by-step explanation:

$(f-g)(x)$ just means $f(x)-g(x)$ .

So

$-3x-5-(4x-2)\\-3x-5-4x+2\\-7x-3$

What are the solutions to 6(x - 5) = 12 and 6y - 5 = 12?

zepelin [54]

Answer:x=7

y=2 5/6

Step-by-step explanation:

6(x-5)=12

6x-30=12

6x=12+30

6x=42

6x/6=42/6

x=7

6y-5=12

6y=12+5

6y=17

6y/6=17/6

y=2 5/6
