Z value is a numerical  measurement that describe a value relationship to the mean of a group of values. The standard deviations is 1.25 above the mean is 14,500 hours.

<h3>Given information-</h3>

The mean for the bulb is 12,000 hours.

The standard deviation for the bulb is 2000 hours.

Sample value is 14500.

To find out the how many standard deviation is 14500 mean away from the mean the z value of the mean should be calculated.

<h3>Z value</h3>

Z value is a numerical  measurement that describe a value relationship to the mean of a group of values. Z value is the ratio of the difference of the sample value x and mean \mu to the standard deviation. Thus the z value for the given mean \sigma is,

z=\dfrac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

z=\dfrac{14500-1200}{2000}

z=1.25

Thus the standard deviations is 1.25 above the mean is 14,500 hours.

Write an equation to match each graph:
castortr0y [4]

From what I know this graph looks like that of a modulus function except it's shifted 1 unit to right and 1 unit below the origin.

So the original equation must be:
y = |x|

And the transformed equation (aka the equation if this graph) must be,

y+1 = |x| -1

y = |x| -2
