Suppose management could improve the process by reducing the mean time required for an oil change (but keeping the standard devi

ation the same). How much change in the mean service time would be required to allow for a 10-minute guarantee that gives a coupon to no more than 1 out of every 25 customers on average

This question is incomplete, the complete question is;

The owners of Spiffy Lube want to offer their customers a 10-minute guarantee on their standard oil change service. If the oil change takes longer than 10 minutes to complete, the customers is given a coupon for a free oil change at the next visit. Based on past history, the owners believe that the timer required to complete an oil change has a normal distribution with a mean of 8.6 minutes and a standard deviation of 1.2 minutes.

Suppose management could improve the process by reducing the mean time required for an oil change (but keeping the standard deviation the same). How much change in the mean service time would be required to allow for a 10-minute guarantee that gives a coupon to no more than 1 out of every 25 customers on average

Answer:

Required change in the mean service time is 7.8988

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data in the question;

How much change in the mean service time would be required to allow for a 10-minute guarantee that gives a coupon to no more than 1 out of every 25 customers on average

let mean = μ

p( x > 10 ) ≤ (1/25)

p( x > 10 ) ≤ 0.4

p( x-μ / 1.2  > 10-μ / 1.2 ) ≤ 0.4

(10-μ / 1.2 ) ≤ 0.4

(10-μ / 1.2 ) ≥ q_{norm} ( 0.96 )

(10-μ / 1.2 ≥ 1.751

10-μ  = ≥ 1.751 × 1.2

10-μ  ≤ 2.1012

μ ≤ 10 - 2.1012

μ ≤ 7.8988

Therefore, required change in the mean service time is 7.8988

Answer:

x = 19

Step-by-step explanation:

(whole secant) x (external part) = (tangent)^2

(x-7+4) * 4 = 8^2

(x-3)*4 = 64

Divide each side by 4

x-3 =16

Add 3 to each side

x-3+3 = 16+3

x = 19

If Professor Wilson found that the test scores of his students had a variance of 4.4, what is the standard deviation? Type a num
malfutka [58]

Answer:

The standard deviation will be: 2.1        

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that standard deviation is basically the square root of variance.

Using the formula to calculate the standard deviation

s=\sqrt{s^2}

As

  • The variance =  s² = 4.4

so the standard deviation can be calculated as:

standard deviation =\sqrt{s^2}

                                 =\sqrt{\left(4.4\right)^}

                                  =2.1

Therefore, the standard deviation will be: 2.1

Which equation has a graph that passes through the points at (0,5) and (-3,-4)?
Roman55 [17]

Answer:

y = 3x + 5

Step-by-step explanation:

We are asked the equation of the graph which passes through the points at (0,5) and (-3,-4).  

Now, we know that the equation of a straight line passing through the points (x_{1},y_{1}) and (x_{2},y_{2}) is given by

\frac{y - y_{1}}{y_{1} - y_{2}} = \frac{x - x_{1}}{x_{1} - x_{2}}.

So, in our case (x_{1},y_{1}) ≡ (0,5) and (x_{2},y_{2}) ≡ (-3,-4)

Therefore, the equation of the straight line will be  

\frac{y - 5}{5 - (- 4)} = \frac{x - 0}{0 - (- 3)}

⇒ y - 5 = \frac{9}{3}x

⇒y = 3x + 5 (Answer)
