Answer:

  x = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

Set q(x) = -4 and solve for x.

  q(x) = 1/2x -3 . . . . . . given

  -4 = 1/2x -3 . . . . . . . . q(x) = -4

   -1 = 1/2x . . . . . . . . . . add 3

  -2 = x . . . . . . . . . . . . . multiply by 2

A company selling light bulbs claims in its advertisements that its light bulbs’ average life is 1000 hours. In fact, the life s
Ket [755]

Answer:

The probability that a randomly chosen light bulb will last less than 900 hours is 0.1587.

Step-by-step explanation:

The life span of these light bulbs is normally distributed with a mean of 1000 hours and a standard deviation of 100 hours

Mean = \mu = 1000 hours

Standard deviation =\sigma = 100 hours

We are supposed to find the probability that a randomly chosen light bulb will last less than 900 hours.i.e. P(x<900)

So, Z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

Z=\frac{900-1000}{100}

Z=-1

P(x<900)=P(z<-1)=0.1587

Hence the probability that a randomly chosen light bulb will last less than 900 hours is 0.1587.

Answer:

\huge\boxed{\sf 4\ minutes\ 1.5\ seconds}

Step-by-step explanation:

3 minutes 59.1 seconds = (3*60) + 59.1 seconds = 180 + 59.1 seconds

=> 239.1 seconds

\rule[225]{225}{2}

4 minutes 3.8 seconds = (4*60) + 3.8 seconds = 240 + 3.8 seconds

=> 243.8 seconds

\rule[225]{225}{2}

4 minutes 1.6 seconds = (4*60) + 1.6 seconds = 240 + 1.6 seconds

=> 241.6 seconds

\rule[225]{225}{2}

Mean = Sum of data / No. of Data

Mean = 239.1 + 243.8 + 241.6 / 3

Mean = 724.5 / 3

Mean = 241.5 seconds

<u>In Minutes and Seconds:</u>

= 241.5 / 60 = 4.025 minutes

= 4 minutes + 0.025 minutes

= 4 minutes + (0.025 * 60) seconds

= 4 minutes 1.5 seconds

\rule[225]{225}{2}

Hope this helped!
