34.5=4h+7c
(34.5-7c)/4=h
Put h= (34.5-7c)/4 into another equation
30.5=8h+3c
30.5=2(34.5-7c)+3c
30.5=69-14c+3c
11c=38.5
c=38.5/11
Put c=38.5/11 into one of the equations
to calculate the h.
1.03=b this makes sense because it increases 3 percent so you add 1 to .03
Answer:
0.875 is the ratio from white to brown socks.
Using the normal distribution, it is found that the replacement time that separates the top 18% from the bottom 82% is of 11.23 years.
<h3>Normal Probability Distribution</h3>
The z-score of a measure X of a normally distributed variable with mean
and standard deviation
is given by:

- The z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is above or below the mean.
- Looking at the z-score table, the p-value associated with this z-score is found, which is the percentile of X.
In this problem, the mean and the standard deviation are, respectively, given by
.
The desired value is the 82nd percentile, which is X when Z = 0.915, hence:


X - 9.4 = 0.915(2)
X = 11.23
The replacement time that separates the top 18% from the bottom 82% is of 11.23 years.
