5 0

Answer:

12,400

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the current employees be x

65% increase in number = 0.65x

If the total number of employees after the increase is 20,460, then;

x + 0.65x = 20,460

1.65x = 20,460

x = 20,460/1.65

x = 12,400

Hence the current number of employees is 12,400

The comprehensive strength of concrete is normally distributed with μ = 2500 psi and σ = 50 psi. Find the probability that a ran
VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

The probability that the diameter falls in the interval from 2499 psi to 2510 psi is 0.00798.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's define the random variable, X = "Comprehensive strength of concrete". We have information that X is normally distributed with a mean of 2500 psi and a standard deviation of  50 psi (or a variance of 2500 psi). In other words, X \sim N(2500, 2500).

We want to know the probability of the mean of X or \bar{X} that falls in the interval [2499;2510]. From inference theory we know that :

\bar{X} \sim N(2500, \frac{2500}{5}) \Rightarrow \bar{X} \sim N(2500,500)

Now we can find the probability as follows:

P(2499 \leq \bar{X} \leq 2510) \Rightarrow P(\frac{2499 - 2500}{500} \leq \frac{\bar{X} - 2500}{500} \leq \frac{2499 - 2500}{500} ) \Rightarrow\\\Rightarrow P(-0.002 \leq \frac{\bar{X} - 2500}{500} \leq 0.02 ) \Rightarrow P(-0.002 \leq Z \leq 0.02 )

Where Z \sim N(0,1), then:

P(-0.002 \leq Z \leq 0.02 ) \approx P(0 \leq Z \leq 0.02 ) = P(Z \leq 0.02 ) - P(Z \leq 0) \\P(0 \leq Z \leq 0.02 ) = 0.50798 - 0.5 = 0.00798

Write an equation in slope-intercept form (y=mx+b) for a line that passes through (-8, 1) and is perpendicular to y = 2x - 17
Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

(-8,1) is ⊥ to y=2x-17

from y=mx+c

comparing with

y=2x-17

m₁₌2

for perpendicularity m₂=-1/m₁

m₂₌-1/2

equation of a line with one point y-y₁/x-x₁=m

(-8,1) are x₁ and y₁ respectively

y-1/x-(-8)=-1/2

y-1/x+8=-1/2

cross multiply

2(y-1)=-1(x+8)

2y-2=-x-8

2y=-x-8+2

2y=-x-6

divide both side by 2

y=-1/2x-3
