liubo4ka [24]

ANSWER:

The average burnout time of a large number of bulbs has a sampling distribution that is close to Normal.

STEP-BY-STEP EXPLANATION:

The cental limit theorem states, that id the sample size is large (30 or more), then the sampling distribution of the sample means is approximately normal with mean ц and standar deviation б/\sqrt{n}

Thus the correct answer is the average burnout time of a large number of bulbs has a sampling distribution that is close to Normal.

VladimirAG [237]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If two variables, x and y have a direct variation, it means that an increase in x would lead to a corresponding increase in y. A decrease on x would lead to a corresponding decrease in y.

Therefore, we would compare the scenarios to determine which is not a direct variation. The correct option is

d) Time taken will be less if number of workers are increased to complete the same work.​

The rest are direct variation scenarios

Which system of equations can be used to find the roots of the equation 12 x 3-5x=2 x 2+x+6
kirill [66]

Answer:

Option (a) is correct.

The system of equation becomes

y=12x^3-5x\\\\ y=2x^2+x+6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Equation  12x^3-5x=2x^2+x+6

We have to construct a  system of equations that  can be used to find the roots of the equation 12x^3-5x=2x^2+x+6

Consider the given equation 12x^3-5x=2x^2+x+6

To construct a system of equation put both sides of the given equation equal to a same variable.

Let the variable be "y", Then the equation 12x^3-5x=2x^2+x+6

becomes,

12x^3-5x=y=2x^2+x+6

Thus, The system of equation becomes

y=12x^3-5x\\\\ y=2x^2+x+6

Option (a) is correct.
