<u>Given</u>:
Given that the triangles ABD and CAD are similar.
The length of AB is 12.
The length of BD is x.
The length of AC is 27.
We need to determine the value of x.
<u>Value of x:</u>
Let us use the leg rule to determine the value of x.
Thus, we have;
Substituting the values, we get;
Cross multiplying, we get;
Dividing both sides by 27, we have;
Thus, the value of x is
Hence, Option D is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:
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 and standard deviation
, the z-score of a measure X is given by:
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
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.
The designed life should be of 21,840 vehicle miles.
