Answer:

Total tape used by marge is 6 inches .

Step-by-step explanation:

As given

marge cut 16 pieces of tape for mounting pictures on poster board.

Each\ piece\ of\ tape\ was\ \frac{3}{8}\ inch\ long.

Total tape marge uses = Number of pieces × Each piece length

Total\ tape\ marge\ uses = \frac{16\times 3}{8}

Total tape marge uses = 2 × 3

                                      = 6 inches

Therefore the total tape used by marge is 6 inches .

A production process is checked periodically by a quality control inspector. the inspector selects simple random samples of 30 f
777dan777 [17]

Answer:

Population Mean = 2.0

Population Standard deviation = 0.03

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that the inspector selects simple random samples of 30 finished products and computes the sample mean product weight.

Also, test results over a long period of time show that 5% of the values are over 2.1 pounds and 5% are under 1.9 pounds.

Now, mean of the population is given the average of two extreme boundaries because mean lies exactly in the middle of the distribution.

So,   Mean, \mu = \frac{1.9+2.1}{2} = 2.0

Therefore, mean for the population of products produced with this process is 2.

Since, we are given that 5% of the values are under 1.9 pounds so we will calculate the z score value corresponding to a probability of 5% i.e.

             z = -1.6449 {from z % table}

We know that z formula is given by ;  

                Z = \frac{Xbar - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } } ~ N(0,1)

              -1.6449 = \frac{1.9 - 2.0}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }     ⇒  \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} }  = \frac{-0.1}{-1.6449}  

                                           ⇒ \sigma = 0.0608 * \sqrt{30}  {as sample size is given 30}

                                           ⇒ \sigma = 0.03 .

Therefore, Standard deviation for the population of products produced with this process is 0.0333.

Jill invested $20,000 in an account that earned 5.5% annual interest, compounded annually. What is the value of this account aft
noname [10]

The value of this account in 10 years is given by the formula:

FV = P*(1+r)^t

where FV is the future value in the account after 10 years(to be calculated)

P is the principal invested at the beginning

r is the interest rate and

t is the time horizon in years

Given, Invested Amount (P) = 20,000

Interest rate (r) = 5.5% = 0.055

Time horizon (t) = 10 years = 10

Substituting the formula, FV = 20,000*(1+0.055)^10 = 20,000*1.055^10 = 20,000*1.708144458 =  34,162.89

The value of this account after 10 years =$34,162.89 (Rounded to the nearest cent)

Point Q is on line segment PR . Given PQ=16 and PR=19, determine the length of QR
Nikitich [7]

Answer:

QR = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

given that Q is on the segment PR , then

PQ + QR = PR ( substitute values )

16 + QR = 19 ( subtract 16 from both sides )

QR = 3
