Answer:

2 people worked for 4 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given X = No. of hours worked

And we are also given that No. of people work for the manager = 50   

X = 3, 4 , 5 , 6 , 7, 8

P(X) = 0.1 , ? , 0.14 , 0.3 , 0.36 , 0.06

Since sum of all the probabilities =1

So,

0.1 + ? + 0.14 + 0.3 +  0.36 + 0.06 =1

0.96+? =1

? = 1 - 0.96

? = 0.04

So, probability of no. of people worked for 4 hours = 0.04

P(4)=0.04

So, no. of people worked for 4 hours =50*P(X)

                                                              =50*0.04

                                                              =2

Hence 2 people worked for 4 hours.

Answer:

c. 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : X = No. of hours worked

           No. of people work for the manager = 50

           X = 3, 4 , 5 , 6 , 7, 8

           P(X) = 0.1 , ? , 0.14 , 0.3 , 0.36 , 0.06

To Find : No. of people work for four hours

Solution : First understand the fact that sum of all probabilities is equal to 1

So, sum of all values of P(X) = 1

⇒0.1+?+0.14+0.3+0.36+0.06 = 1

⇒0.96+? = 1

⇒?= 1-0.96

⇒? = 0.04

So, the probability of no. of people worked for 4 hours is 0.04.

⇒P(4)=0.04

Thus , To calculate no. of people work for four hours :

0.04\times 50

⇒ 2 no. of people work for four hours per shift .

Answer: D

Step-by-step explanation:

all possible rational zeros are the factors of the last term divided by the coefficient of the first term

so it's (±1, ±3, ±9) / (±1, ±2)

(±1, ±3, ±9) / ±1 = ±1, ±3, ±9

(±1, ±3, ±9) / ±2 = ±1/2, ±3/2, ±9/2

--> ±1, ±3, ±9, ±1/2, ±3/2, ±9/2

labwork [276]
<span>In this case, every bottle has 500 mg of caffeine with a standard deviation of 25 mg. The equation of a bottle will be: 500 +/- 25mg caffeine per bottle.

To calculate a carton containing 30 bottles, you just need the equation with 30. It will become: (500x30) +/- (25x30)mg= 15000 +/- 750 mg of caffeine per carton</span>

Write the equation of a line perpendicular to y= -1/3x + 5 and passes through the point (6, 4).
Levart [38]

Answer:

y = 3x - 14

Step-by-step explanation:

Perpendicular lines will have a opposite reciprocal slope, so the slope will be 3.

Plug in the slope and given point into y = mx + b, then solve for b:

y = mx + b

4 = 3(6) + b

4 = 18 + b

-14 = b

Plug in the slope and y intercept into y = mx + b

y = 3x - 14

So, the equation of the line is y = 3x - 14

Triangle A is reflected in the x axis to give triangle B, which is then reflected in the line y=x to give Triangle C. Draw Trian
OLEGan [10]

Step-by-step explanation:

always draw triangle b first. for triangle b it is reflected across the x-axis which means all y valies become negative. then for triangle c, you swap the x and y values around.
