Answer:

0.1357 = 13.57% of bolts will have a diameter greater than 1.211 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Probability Distribution:

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

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the z-score 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 p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Mean of 1.20 inches and a standard deviation of 0.01 inches.

This means that \mu = 1.20, \sigma = 0.01

What proportion of bolts will have a diameter greater than 1.211 inches?

This is 1 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 1.211. So

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

Z = \frac{1.211 - 1.20}{0.01}

Z = 1.1

Z = 1.1 has a p-value of 0.8643.

1 - 0.8643 = 0.1357

0.1357 = 13.57% of bolts will have a diameter greater than 1.211 inches

If two lines are perpendicular, which statement must be true? A) The product of their slopes is 1. B) Their slopes are opposites
castortr0y [4]
If two lines are perpendicular, the statement that must be true is : D. The product of their slopes is -1

Lets say that a line has a slope of 2, the line which perpendicular to that line would have a slope of -1/2

Which means, the product would be 2(-1/2) = -1

Determine the central and radius of the circle of equation given below<br> x2+y2-4x+6y-12=0
Marianna [84]

Answer:

centre = (2, - 3 ) and radius = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

the equation of a circle in standard form is

(x - h)² + (y - k)² = r²

where (h, k ) are the coordinates of the centre and r is the radius

given

x² + y² - 4x + 6y - 12 = 0 ( add 12 to both sides )

x² + y² - 4x + 6y = 12 ( collect x/ y terms )

x² + 4x + y² + 6y = 12

using the method of completing the square

add ( half the coefficient of the x/ y terms )² to both sides

x² + 2(-2)x + 4 + y² + 2(3)y + 9 = 12 + 4 + 9

(x - 2)² + (y + 3)² = 25 ← in standard form

with (h, k ) = ( 2, - 3 ) and r = \sqrt{25} = 5

I need help with this math questions can anyone help Thanks.<br> Can u help me on #1 and#2
Fynjy0 [20]
1.
yes
x is number of group acts
y is number of indivual acts


2. I would eliminate x by multiplying 2nd equation by -3 then adding

12x+6y=120
<u>-12x-3y=-90 +
</u>0x+3y=30

3y=30
divide by 3
y=10

sub
4x+y=30
4x+10=30
4x=20
divide 4
x=5

each group act takes 5 mins and each individual takes 10 minutes

How do you divide fractions?
Zanzabum
2/8 divided by 1/4. Steps: 1. Division in math actually means multiplication. You just have to multiply by the reciprocal of the second fraction (reciprocal= denominator and numerator are switched). 2. Do 2/8 times 4/1. 3. 2 times 4= 8 and 8 times 1= 8 4. Your answer would be 8/8 which equals 1. This is how you divide fractions
