A machine that cuts corks for wine bottles operates in such a way that the distribution of the diameter of the corks produced is
Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

A. P(x<3.85 or x>4.15)= P(x<3.85)+P(x>4.15) = 0.1336

Step-by-step explanation:

Working with an ordinary Normal Distribution of probability and trying to find the probabilities asked in it could be difficult, because there´s no easy method to find probabilities in a generic Normal Distribution (with mean μ=4 and STD σ=0.1). The recommended approach to this question is to use a process called "Normalize", this process let us translate the problem of any Normal Distribution to a Standard Normal Distribution (μ=0 and σ=1) where there´s easier ways to find probabilities in there. The "Normalization" goes as follows:

Suppose you want to know P(x<a) of the Normal Distribution you are working with:

P(x<a)=P( (x-μ)/σ < (a-μ)/σ )=P(z<b)   ( b=(a-μ)/σ )

Where μ is the mean and σ is the STD of your Normal Distribution. Notice P(z<b) now it´s a probability in a Standard Normal Distribution, now we can find it using the available method to do so. My favorite is a chart (It´s attached to this answer) that contains a lot of probabilities in a Standard Normal Distribution. Let´s solve this as an example

A. We want to find the probability of the cork being defective (P(x<3.85) + P(x>4.15)). Now we find those separated and, then, add them for our answer.

Let´s begin with P(x<3.85), we start by normalizing that probability:

P(x<3.85)= P( (x-μ)/σ < (3.85-4)/0.1 )= P(z<-1.5)

And now it´s time to use the chart, it works like this: If you want P(z<c) and the decimal expansion of c=a.bd... , then:

P(z<c)=(a.b , d)

Where (a.b , d) are the coordinates of the probability in the chart. Keep in mind that will only work with "<" (It won´t work directly with P(z>c)) and we will do some extra work in those cases.

P(z<-1.5) is in the coordinates (-1.5 , 0)

P(z<-1.5)= 0.0668

P(x<3.85)= 0.0668

Now we are looking for P(x>4.15), let´s Normalize it too:

P(x>4.15)=P( (x-μ)/σ < (4.15-4)/0.1 )=P(z>1.5)

But remember the chart only work with "<", so we need to use a property of probability:

P(z>1.5)= 1 - P(z<1.5)

Using the chart:

P(z<1.5)=0.9332                             (1.5 , 0)

P(z>1.5)= 1 - 0.9332

P(z>1.5)= 0.0668

P(x>4.15)= 0.0668

And our final answer will be:

P(x<3.85 or x>4.15)= P(x<3.85)+P(x>4.15) = 0.1336

5. While bird watching, Gabrielle saw 6 robins and 3 blue jays.
Semenov [28]

Answer:

Neither. They both saw the same amount of birds.

Step-by-step explanation:

Gabrielle saw 9 birds, but so did Chase. 6+3 is 9. 3+6 is also 9. The commutative property of addition states that a+b=b+a.

What is the product of -2x^3 + x -5 and x^3 – 3x?
lana66690 [7]
(-2x^3 +x -5) * (x^3 -3x)
= x^6*(-2*1) +x^4*(-2*-3 +1*1) +x^3*(-5) +x^2*(-3) +x(-5*-3)
= -2x^6 +7x^4 -5x^3 -3x^2 +15x
