Answer:

Mean = \mu = 1140

Standard deviation = \sigma = 80

Find the probabilities for the average length of life of the selected batteries.

A)The average is between 1128 and 1140.

We are supposed to fidn P(1128<x<1140)

Formula : Z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

At x = 1128

Z=\frac{1128-1140}{80}

Z=-0.15

Refer the z table for p value

P(x<1128)=0.4404

At x = 1140

Z=\frac{1140-1140}{80}

Z=0

Refer the z table for p value

P(x<1140)=0.5

So,P(1128<x<1140)=P(x<1140)-P(x<1128)=0.5-0.4404=0.0596

Hence the probabilities for the average length of life of the selected batteries  is between 1128 and 1140 is 0.0596

B)The average is greater than 1152.

P(x>1152)

At x = 1128

Z=\frac{1152-1140}{80}

Z=0.15

Refer the z table for p value

P(x<1152)=0.5596

So,P(x>1152)=1-P(x<1152)=1-0.5596=0.4404

Hence the probabilities for the average length of life of the selected batteries is greater than 1152 is 0.4404

C) The average is less than 940.

P(x<940)

At x = 940

Z=\frac{940-1140}{80}

Z=-2.5

Refer the z table for p value

P(x<940)=0.5596

Hence the probabilities for the average length of life of the selected batteries is less than 940 is 0.5596

JulsSmile [24]
To answer this question, we would have to use algebra.

Let the unknown number be A.

Now, as per the question, we have the equation -> 
2A - 7 > 5 + A
==> 2A - A > 5+7
==> A > 12

So, the final answer is --> A > 12

Which equation represents a line perpendicular to the line shown on the graph?
Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

See description below.

Step-by-step explanation:

To choose the correct equation, find the slope of the line on the graph. Identify two points on the line. Then subtract to find their rate of change using the slope formula.

m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

When you know the slope, find the negative reciprocal. For example, if the slope is 2/1 then the negative reciprocal is -1/2. This is the slope of a perpendicular line to a line with slope 2. Choose the equation which has this same slope.

Example:

y = 2x -1

y= -1/2 +5

Relate Fractions, Decimals, and Money. Write the money amount as a fraction in terms of dollars. The problems are $0.66 and $1.0
ozzi
You convert a decimal to a fraction by putting the digits to the right of the decimal point over "1" followed by the same number of zeros. (Most folks learn this in 3rd or 4th grade.)

0.66 = 66/100 . . . . . 2 decimals, so the denominator is 100

Then you reduce the fraction by canceling common factors. It helps to know your times tables and divisibility rules. (Or you can have your calculator do it.)

0.66 = 66/100 = 33/50
1.00 = 100/100 = 1

Write an expression that represents n plus 7 multiplied by 3.
diamong [38]
The <span>expression that represents n plus 7 multiplied by 3 is
(n + 7)(3)
The entire expression, (n + 7) is multiplied by 3 since it would be inconvenient to state the expression as given above if what is meant was
(n + 7x3). It would have simply been n plus 21.</span>
