There are a total of 15 bicycles and tricycles.There are 37 wheels all together if we count them up. How many tricycles and how

m_a_m_a [10]

Answer: there are eight bicycles and 7 tricycles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of bicycles that are there.

Let y represent the number of tricycles that are there.

There are a total of 15 bicycles and tricycles. This means that

x + y = 15

A bicycle has 2 wheels and a tricycle has 3 wheels. There are 37 wheels all together if we count them up. This means that

2x + 3y = 37- - - - - - - - - - - - - 1

Substituting x = 15 - y into equation 1, it becomes

2(15 - y) + 3y = 37

30 - 2y + 3y = 37

- 2y + 3y = 37 - 30

y = 7

x = 15 - y = 15 - 7

x = 8

The time required for workers to produce each unit of a product decreases as the workers become more familiar with the productio

Marat540 [252]

Answer: 2.79 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the function for the learning process is T(x) = 2 + 0.3 1 x , where T(x) is the time, in hours, required to produce the xth unit

To calculate the time for the new worker to produce 10 units, substitute 10 for x in the equation above.

T(x) = 2 + 0.31 (10)

T(x) = 2 + 3.1

T(x) = 5.1 hours

To calculate the time for the new worker to produce 19 units, substitute 19 for x in the equation above.

T(x) = 2 + 0.31(19)

T(x) = 2 + 5.89

T(x) = 7.89 hours

The time required for a new worker to produce units 10 through 19 will be

7.89 - 5.1 = 2.79 hours

Write the equation of the line that passes through the given points. Include your work in your final answer. Type your answer in

Harman [31]

The equation you use for the slope of this kind of problem is (y2-y1)/(x2-x1). x1 is the first X coordinate, x2 is the second, y1 is the first y coordinate, y2 is the second.

(5-3)/(2-2)
2/0
This equation has an UNDEFINED SLOPE, as it is just a vertical line.

In a process that manufactures bearings, 90% of the bearings meet a thickness specification. A shipment contains 500 bearings. A

Marina86 [1]

Answer:

(a) 0.94

(b) 0.20

(c) 90.53%

Step-by-step explanation:

From a population (Bernoulli population), 90% of the bearings meet a thickness specification, let $p_1$ be the probability that a bearing meets the specification.

So, $p_1=0.9$

Sample size, $n_1=500$ , is large.

Let X represent the number of acceptable bearing.

Convert this to a normal distribution,

Mean: $\mu_1=n_1p_1=500\times0.9=450$

Variance: $\sigma_1^2=n_1p_1(1-p_1)=500\times0.9\times0.1=45$

$\Rightarrow \sigma_1 =\sqrt{45}=6.71$

(a) A shipment is acceptable if at least 440 of the 500 bearings meet the specification.

So, $X\geq 440.$

Here, 440 is included, so, by using the continuity correction, take x=439.5 to compute z score for the normal distribution.

$z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}=\frac{339.5-450}{6.71}=-1.56$ .

So, the probability that a given shipment is acceptable is

$P(z\geq-1.56)=\int_{-1.56}^{\infty}\frac{1}{\sqrt{2\pi}}e^{\frac{-z^2}{2}}=0.94062$

Hence, the probability that a given shipment is acceptable is 0.94.

(b) We have the probability of acceptability of one shipment 0.94, which is same for each shipment, so here the number of shipments is a Binomial population.

Denote the probability od acceptance of a shipment by $p_2$ .
