Answer:

The first quartile of the strengths of this alloy is 9.055 GPa.

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

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.

The strength of an aluminum alloy is normally distributed with mean 10 gigapascals (GPa) and standard deviation 1.4 GPa.

This means that \mu = 10, \sigma = 1.4

What is the first [lower] quartile of the strengths of this alloy?

This is the 100/4 = 25th percentile, which is X when Z has a pvalue of 0.25, so X when Z = -0.675.

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

-0.675 = \frac{X - 10}{1.4}

X - 10 = -0.675*1.4

X = 9.055

The first quartile of the strengths of this alloy is 9.055 GPa.

12345 [234]

Hello there! :)

Answer:

\boxed{b>8}\checkmark

<h2><u><em>*****The answer should have a GREATER THAN SIGN AND POSITIVE TOO!*****</em></u></h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Distributive property: a(b+c)=ab+ac

PEMDAS

Order of operations

Parenthesis

Exponent

Multiply

Divide

Add

Subtract

Left/Right

First, you add by 4 from both sides of an equation.

b-4+4>4+4

Then, you add numbers from left/right.

4+4=8

\boxed{b>8}, which is our final answer.

Hope this helps you!

Have a nice day! :)

:D

Choose the correct definition of volume.
siniylev [52]

Answer:

the amount of space a 3-dimensional object takes up

Step-by-step explanation:

Of the four definition options, the first is the only only that incorporates a three dimension explanation.  The others only describe a two dimension object.  Units for the first would be unit^3.  The other three would only be one-dimensional "units."
