Answer:

68.26% of the parts will have lengths between 3.8 in. and 4.2 in.

Step-by-step explanation:

The lengths of a lawn mower part are approximately normally distributed

\mu = 4

Standard deviation =\sigma =0.2

We are supposed to find  What percentage of the parts will have lengths between 3.8 in. and 4.2 in . i.e. P(3.8<x<4.2)

Formula : Z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

At x = 3.8

Z=\frac{3.8-4}{0.2}

Z=-1

Refer the z table for p value

p value =0.1587

At x =4.2

Z=\frac{4.2-4}{0.2}

Z=1

Refer the z table for p value

p value =0.8413

P(3.8<x<4.2)=P(x<4.2)-P(x<3.8)=0.8413-0.1587=0.6826

So, 68.26% of the parts will have lengths between 3.8 in. and 4.2 in.

How many solutions does the following equation have?<br> -6(x + 7) = -4.x - 2
mestny [16]

Answer:

x=-20

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

-6(x+7)= -4x - 2

First of all, we have to solve brackets

So,

-6x-42=-4x-2

To find the solution of this equation, we have to isolate x on one side of the equation.

Adding 4x on both sides

-6x-42+4x = -2-4x+4x

-2x-42 = -2

Adding 42 on both sides

-2x-42+42 = -2+42

-2x=40

Dividing both sides by -2

-2x/2 = 40/-2

x = -20

The equation has only one solution which is x=-20 ..
