Answer:
You should claim 10.5325 years on your warranty.
Step-by-step explanation:
Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.
In a set with mean 
and standard deviation 
, the zscore of a measure X is given by:
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 pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.
In this problem, we have that:
Want's to replace no more than 5% of the products.
This means that the warranty should be 5th percentile, that is, the value of X when Z has a pvalue of 0.05. So X when Z = -1.645.
You should claim 10.5325 years on your warranty.
Answer:
This is a geometric sequence since there is a common ratio between each term. In this case, multiplying the previous term in the sequence by
2.1
gives the next term. In other words,

Answer:
The hypotenuse to the nearest tenth is 8.1
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use the Pythagorean theorem to solve
a^2 + b^2 = c^2 where a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse
Let a be the x leg and b be the y leg
a = 7 units
b= 4 units
7^2 + 4^2 = c^2
49+ 16 = c^2
65 = c^2
Take the square root of each side
sqrt(65) = sqrt(c^2)
8.062257748 =c
To the nearest tenth
8.1 =c
