Using the normal distribution, it is found that 2.64% of all the nails produced by this machine are unusable.
In a <em>normal distribution</em> with mean
and standard deviation
, the z-score of a measure X is given by:
- It 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, which is the percentile of X.
In this problem:
- The mean is of 3 inches, hence
.
- The standard deviation is of 0.009 inches, hence
.
Nails that are <u>more than 0.02 inches</u> from the mean are unusable, hence:



The proportion is P(|Z| > 2.22), which is <u>2 multiplied by the p-value of Z = -2.22</u>.
Z = -2.22 has a p-value of 0.0132.
2 x 0.0132 = 0.0264
0.0264 x 100% = 2.64%
2.64% of all the nails produced by this machine are unusable.

If the car is traveling at 36ft/s per converted mph divide the amount of travel length the person will travel and subtract is by 1 this being the second tracked which is 36ft/s
Answer:
shirts = 15 when pants = 6
15
Step-by-step explanation:
Try two others that are given
shirts / pants = 10 / 4 = 2.5
shirts / pants = 30/12 = 2.5
So shirts/pants = 2.5 = x/6
2.5 = x / 6 Multiply by 6
2.5 * 6 = x
x = 15
The easiest way to solve this comparison without any unusual comparisons is to find a common denominator for the two fractions.
2/5 = 18/45
4/9 = 20/45
Since 20/45 is bigger than 18/45, we know that 4/9 is greater than 2/5
Answer:
6u
Step-by-step explanation:
The two terms 10u and 4u are like terms because they both carry the same variable (u) with the same degree (1). So, we can just subtract them as if they were normal numbers 10 - 4:
10u - 4u = 6u
Thus, the answer is 6u.
Hope this helps!
