Answer:

0.3557 = 35.57% probability that one selected subcomponent is longer than 118 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Probability Distribution:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the z-score of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

The Z-score 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. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Normally distributed with a mean of 116 cm and a standard deviation of 5.4 cm.

This means that \mu = 116, \sigma = 5.4

Find the probability that one selected subcomponent is longer than 118 cm.

This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 118. So

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{118 - 116}{5.4}

Z = 0.37

Z = 0.37 has a pvalue of 0.6443

1 - 0.6443 = 0.3557

0.3557 = 35.57% probability that one selected subcomponent is longer than 118 cm.

Danny's Bike Shop sells a certain model of racing bike for $550. The same bike can be bought at a competing shop for 7 percent l
AleksAgata [21]

Answer:

$511.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Selling price of bike at Danny´s shop is $550

           Bike is sold 7% less at competitor´s shop.

Lets find the discounted amount at Danny´s competitor shop.

∴ \frac{7}{100} \times 550 = \$ 38.5

Now, finding the cost of bike at Danny´s competitor.

Cost of bike at Danny´competitor= (\textrm{Price at dannys shop - discount provided by competitor})

Cost of bike at Danny´s competitor= 550-38.5= \$511.5

∴ Cost of bike at Danny´s competitor is $511.5.

Shane and Abha earned a team badge that required their team to collect no less than 2000 cans for recycling. Abha collected 178
kompoz [17]

Answer: [911,∞)


Step-by-step explanation:

Given: S be the number of cans collected by Shane.

Since,  Abha collected 178 more cans than Shane did.

Then, the number of cans collected by Abha = S+178

Also, Shane and Abha earned a team badge that required their team to collect no less than 2000 cans for recycling.

So, S+178+S\geq2000

\\\Rightarrow\ 2S\geq2000-178\\\Rightarrow2S\geq1822\\\Rightarrow\ S\geq911

Hence, the solution set of the inequality will be [911,∞)

An airplane is traveling at an altitude of 30,000 feet
Murljashka [212]

Answer:

10 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find how much higher the airplane has to travel:

35,000 - 30,000

= 5,000

To fine how long it will take, divide 5000 by 500

5000/500

= 10

So, it will take 10 minutes to get above 35,000 feet
