Answer:

It's because the little lines around -4 are called absolute value functions, and their function is to make any negative value to positive. If there are a positive value in an absolute value function, it stays positive, for example:

|-2| = 2, and |2| = 2

The scale factor is what u multiply the first image by to get the second image. So by dividing the second image by the first image will give u the scale factor.

6 / 1.5 = 4....so there is a scale factor of 4 because 1.5 * 4 = 6

A machining operation produces bearings with diameters that are normally distributed with mean 3.0005 inches and standard deviat

padilas [110]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The 68-95-99.7 rule for the Normal distribution is an empirical rule that remind us the percentages of data that falls between the mean ± 1, ± 2 and ± 3 standard deviations.

That is to say, if the mean is m and the standard deviation s, roughly speaking 68% of the data falls between [m-s, m+s], 95% between [m-2s, m+2s] and 99.7% between [m-3s, m+3s].

Since the mean is 3.0005 and the standard deviation is s=0.0010, 2s=0.0020, 95% of the data should fall between [3.0005-0.0020, 3.0005+0.0020] and 5% outside this interval. So around 5% of total production will be scrap.

Mountains poem in nepali for class 7

dalvyx [7]

Step-by-step explanation:

म नजन्मिदै विधवा भएकी हिमाल

खै! किन हो मेरा यी हेर्ने नयनले उनलाइ

अझै पनि दिन र रातमा

सेतै लुगा पहिरिएकी देख्छ

अचम्म लाग्छ मलाइ पहिरिएकी सेतो लुगा माथि

मुनालले पाइला टेके पनि विष्ठा गरे पनि कहिल्यै

मैलो हुदैन सेतो लुगाको वास्तविक रङ

उत्तिकै सेतो देख्छु म

निर्जीव वस्तु भएनी हिमाललाइ

सजीव मनुस्यको जस्तै चोटको कल्पना गरेको छु मैले

किनकी चोटै चोटले ग्रसित भएकी उनी आजभोली

अपाङ्गको सिकार बनिसकेकी छिन

उनलाइ अन्धो भन्छु म किनकी उनी आँखा देख्दैनन

आँखा नदेखे पनि अरु कसैलाइ सुम्सुम्याउन समेत सक्दैनन

तर पनि कस्तुरी, डाफे,मुनाल,घोरल,चितुवा आदि जनावरहरुको

सहारा दिने आश्रय स्थल भएर उभिएकी छिन, के कम छिन र?

जमिन भित्र उनको खुट्टा गाडिएर होला

खुट्टाको दृश्य मैले अझै पनि देख्न पाएको छैन

कस्तो होला है! हिमालको खुट्टा ? सोचिरहन्छु म

सायद खुट्टा नै छैन र पो कहिल्यै पनि हिड्डुल गर्न सक्दैनन कि?

जब कुनै समयमा चुचुरोमा हावा बहन थाल्यो

एकदिन सेतो कपाल धरतीमा हाम फालेर

नदिहरु बढ्न थाले तर उहीँ बहेको हावाले

हिमालको श्रवण गर्ने कानको जाली

नै फुटाइदिएछ त्यही भएर म भन्छु

हिमाललाइ बहिरो पनि हुनुहुन्छ तपाईं

सधै टोलाएर बसेकी देख्छु म

रोजगारी भन्ने कुरा त उहीँ हो हिमाललाइ

बिहानीपख देखि सन्ध्या काल सम्म

प्रकृतिले बसिबसी ऐना टल्काउने

पदभार ग्रहण गराइदिएको छ जब घाम

झुल्किन्छ उनी अस्ताउन्जेल सम्म ऐना टल्काइरहन्छिन्

त्यसैले म भन्छु हिमाललाइ बिधवा भएर के भो त

खान लाउनको लागि रोजगारी मिलेकै छ क्यारे !

An HR director numbered employees 1 through 50 for an extra vacation day contest. What is the probability that the HR director w

forsale [732]

Answer:

The probability that the HR director will select an employee who is not a multiple of 13 is $\frac{47}{50}$

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets explain how to solve the problem

- The probability of an event is the measure of the chance that the

event will occur

- The probability of an event A is the number of ways that event A can

occur divided by the total number of possible outcomes

- If P(A) is the probability of event A, is the probability that the event A

does not occur is 1 - P(A)

* Lets solve the problem

- An HR director numbered employees 1 through 50 for an extra

vacation day contest

∴ There are 50 employees

- The HR director will select an employee

- We need to find the probability of select an employees who is not

multiple of 13

* At first lets find the multiples of 13

∵ 13 × 1 = 13

∵ 13 × 2 = 26

∵ 13 × 3 = 39

∴ The multiples of 13 from 1 to 50 are 13 , 26 , 39

∵ There are 3 multiples of 13

∵ There are 50 numbers

∵ Probability of multiple of 13 = $\frac{3}{50}$

∵ Probability of not multiple of 13 = 1 - P(multiple of 13)

∴ Probability of not multiple of 13 = $1-\frac{3}{50}$

∴ Probability of not multiple of 13 = $\frac{47}{50}$

* The probability that the HR director will select an employee who is

not a multiple of 13 is $\frac{47}{50}$
