The length of time required for the periodic maintenance of an automobile or another machine usually has a mound-shaped probabil

ity distribution. Because some occasional long service times will occur, the distribution tends to be skewed to the right. Suppose that the length of time required to run a 5000-mile check and to service an automobile has mean 1.4 hours and standard deviation .7 hour. Suppose also that the service department plans to service 50 automobiles per 8-hour day and that, in order to do so, it can spend a maximum average service time of only 1.6 hours per automobile. On what proportion of all workdays will the service department have to work overtime?

Solution :

Mean time for an automobile to run a 5000 mile check and service = 1.4 hours

Standard deviation = 0.7 hours

Maximum average service time = 1.6 hours for one automobile

The z - score for 1.6 hours = $\frac{1.6-1.4}{0.7 / \sqrt{50}}$

                                           = 2.02

Now checking a normal curve table the percentage of z score over 2.02 is 0.0217

Therefore the overtime that will have to be worked on only 0.217 or 2.017% of all days.

Alexandra [31]

Answer:

\left[\begin{array}{cccc}1&3&4&5\&3&1&5&6\end{array}\right]

The only ones are on the "diagonal", where i = j. Else the position is simply the sum.

Peter is reading a 193-page book. he has read three pages more than one-fourth of the number of pages he hasn't yet read. how ma
exis [7]
Let's call <em />the number of pages we <em>have </em>read m. To find the number of pages we have <em>left</em> to read, we'll need to subtract the number of pages we've read from the total number of pages in the book. Our total page count is 193, and the number of pages we've read is the unknown m, so the number of pages we <em />haven't read can be written as 193-m. With that knowledge, let's construct the rest of our equation.

"He has read three pages more than one-fourth of the number of pages he hasn't yet read." The first key phrase here is "he has read." What this means is that the number of pages he's read, which we've named m, is equal to everything in the rest of the sentence. "Thee pages more than" means that we're going to be adding 3 to whatever the next quantity described is, which, in this case, is "one-fourth of the number of pages he hasn't yet read." We already established earlier that "the number of pages he hasn't yet read" is 193-m, so one-fourth of that would be \frac{1}{4} (193-m). Putting everything together, we get the following equation:

m= \frac{1}{4} (193-m)+3

To solve for m, we might first want to eliminate the fraction 1/4 by multiplying both sides of the equation by 4, obtaining

4m=193-m+12

Solving for m, we get:

4m=193+12-m\\5m=205\\m=41

Now that we have m, it's a simple matter to solve for 193-m:

193-41=152

So, he has not yet read 152 pages.
