Answer:

x=-10

Step-by-step explanation:

2x-11=-31\\

Add 11 on both sides.

2x-11=-31\\2x=-20\\2x/2x=-20/2\\x=-10

What is the gradient of a line perpendicular to a line with a gradient of 2?
ipn [44]

Answer:

- 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope, m  , is the sama as 'gradient'....

 if slope of one line is m, the perpindicular is -1/m

2      then perpindicular = - 1/2

The lifetime of a mechanical assembly in a vibration test is exponentially distributed with a mean of 500 hours. If an assembly
skelet666 [1.2K]

Answer:

A) probability of failure in next 100 hours given that it has been tested for 500 hours without failure is 0.181

B) probability that exactly two have the metabolic defect is 0.03

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A)

Let X be a exponentially random variable with mean = μ = 500 hrs

For exponential distribution:

p.d.f = f(x) = \lambda e^{-\lambda x}\\c.d.f = F(x) = 1 - e^{-\lambda x}\\x\geq 0

                                                         λ = 1/μ

                                                         λ = 0.002

We have to find the  probability of failure in the next 100 hours given that assembly has been tested for 500 hours without a failure.

Using memory less property of exponential distribution:

P(X500) = P (X

using

F(x) = 1 - e^{-\lambda x}\\ \lambda =.002\\x=100\\F(x) = 1- e^{-(.002)(100)}\\F(x) = 1-.8187\\F(x) = 0.181

<h3>Part B)</h3>

Chances of occurrence of metabolic defect = 5%

                                                                 P(C) = .05

No. of randomly selected infants  = n =6

We  have to find the probability that exactly two have the metabolic defect

                                                        ⇒x = 2

Using binomial probability density function:

                                        P = P=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}n\\x\end{array}\right] p^{x} (1-p) ^{n-x}\\\\=\frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!} p^{x} (1-p) ^{n-x}\\=\frac{6!}{2!4!}(.05)^{2}(.95)^{4}\\= 0.03\\

probability that exactly two have the metabolic defect is 0.03

An ethanol railroad tariff is a fee charge for shipments of ethanol on public railroads. The Agriculture Marketing Service publi
Stels [109]

Answer:

The appropriate response is "0.9476".

Step-by-step explanation:

The given values are:

Standard deviation,

\sigma=1150

Randomly selected railroad-car shipments,

n = 500

As we know,

⇒ \sigma \bar{x}=\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} }

On substituting the values, we get

⇒      =\frac{1150}{\sqrt{500} }

then,

⇒      =P(-1.94

⇒      =P(Z

On using the table of P, we get

⇒      =0.9738 - 0.0262

⇒      =0.9476
