Answer:
The minimum head breadth that will fit the clientele is 4.4 inches.
The maximum head breadth that will fit the clientele is 7.8 inches.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let <em>X</em> = head breadths of men that is considered for the helmets.
The random variable <em>X</em> is normally distributed with mean, <em>μ</em> = 6.1 and standard deviation, <em>σ</em> = 1.
To compute the probability of a normal distribution we first need to convert the raw scores to <em>z</em>-scores using the formula:
It is provided that the helmets will be designed to fit all men except those with head breadths that are in the smallest 4.3% or largest 4.3%.
Compute the minimum head breadth that will fit the clientele as follows:
P (X < x) = 0.043
⇒ P (Z < z) = 0.043
The value of <em>z</em> for this probability is:
<em>z</em> = -1.717
*Use a <em>z</em>-table.
Compute the value of <em>x</em> as follows:
Thus, the minimum head breadth that will fit the clientele is 4.4 inches.
Compute the maximum head breadth that will fit the clientele as follows:
P (X > x) = 0.043
⇒ P (Z > z) = 0.043
⇒ P (Z < z) = 1 - 0.043
⇒ P (Z < z) = 0.957
The value of <em>z</em> for this probability is:
<em>z</em> = 1.717
*Use a <em>z</em>-table.
Compute the value of <em>x</em> as follows:
Thus, the maximum head breadth that will fit the clientele is 7.8 inches.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Look for the same stuff under the radical symbol. Here, that "stuff" is "7x". Only one answer choice has 7x under the radical.
_____
Here, there are no cubic factors under the radical that can be factored out—either in the problem expression or in the answer choices. If there were cubic factors, you'd want to remove them before making the comparison.
For example, ∛(56x) would be a like radical to ∛(7x) because a cubic factor of 2^3 = 8 can be removed to make it be 2∛(7x).
