The answer is approximately 0.14
First, we can simplify the left side. (6+8x)/2 is equal to 3 + 4x. We can put the equation together at this point.
3 + 4x = 5x
we can subtract 4x from both sides to get our final answer,
3 = x, or x = 3. :)
Answer:
μ = 5.068 oz
Step-by-step explanation:
Normal distribution formula to use the table attached
Z = (x - μ)/σ
where μ is mean, σ is standard deviation, Z is on x-axis and x is a desired point.
98% of 6-oz. cups will not overflow means that the area below the curve is equal to 0.49; note that the curve is symmetrical respect zero, so, 98% of the cases relied between the interval (μ - some value) and (μ + some value)].
From table attached, area = 0.49 when Z = 2.33. From data, σ = 0.4 oz and x = 6 oz (maximum capacity of the cup). Isolating x from the formula gives
Z = (x - μ)/σ
2.33 = (6 - μ)/0.4
μ = 6 - 2.33*0.4
μ = 5.068
This means that with a mean of 5 oz and a standard deviation of 0.4 oz, the machine will discharge a maximum of 6 oz in the 98% of the cases.
4.) The lateral area of a figure is the area of the figure with the exception of the bases.
Given a prism with right triangle bases, the lateral area of the prism is the sum of the areas of the rectangles making up the prism.
This is given by
Lateral area = (8.94)(41) + (4)(41) + (8)(41) = 366.54 + 164 + 328 = 858.54 ≈ 859 m^2
The surface area is the sum of the bases plus the lateral area. The area of a rectangle is given by half base times height.
Surface area = 1/2 x 8 x 4 + 1/2 x 8 x 4 + 859 = 16 + 16 + 859 = 891 m^2
5.) The surface area of a cylinder is given by pi r^2h where r is the radius = 12 inches and h is the height = 17 inches.
Surface area = π x (12)^2 x 17 = 2,448π = 7,690.62 in^2 ≈ 7,691 in^2
