Engineers must consider the breadths of male heads when designing helmets. The company researchers have determined that the population of potential clientele have head breadths that are Normally distributed with a mean of 6.5 inches and a standard deviation of 1.2 inches. According to the 68-95-99.7 rule, we expect 95% of head breadths to be:___________.

Answers

Answer:

"According to the 68-95-99.7 rule, we expect 95% [95.45%] of head breadths to be" between 4.1 inches and 8.9 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the 68-95-99.7 rule, approximately:

68% (more precisely, 68.27%) of the data from the normal distribution lie one standard deviation, [tex] \\ \sigma[/tex], above and below the population mean, [tex] \\ \mu[/tex].95% (more precisely, 95.45%) of the data lie two standard deviations, [tex] \\ 2\sigma[/tex], above and below the population mean, [tex] \\ \mu[/tex], and finally,99.7 (or more precisely, 99.73%) of the data lie three standard deviations, [tex] \\ 3\sigma[/tex], above and below the population mean, [tex] \\ \mu[/tex].

Then, if we have--from the question--that:

The random variable is head breadths.This variable follows a normal distribution.The population's mean for this distribution is [tex] \\ \mu = 6.5[/tex] inches.The population's standard deviation is [tex] \\ \sigma =1.2[/tex] inches.

We have to remember that two parameters characterize a normal distribution: the population's mean and the population's standard deviation. So, mathematically, the distribution we have from question is [tex] \\ N(6.5, 1.2)[/tex].

For 95% (95.45%) of the head breadths, we expect that they are two standard deviations below and above the population's mean.

For solving this, we need to use the cumulative standard normal distribution (in case we need to find probabilities) and also use standardized values or z-scores:

[tex] \\ z = \frac{x - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex] [1]

A z-score "tells us" the distance from the mean in standard deviations units. If the z-score is positive, it is above the mean. If it is negative, it is below the mean.

Since 95% (95.45%) of the head breadths are two standard deviations (above and below the mean), we have (using [1]):

[tex] \\ \pm2 = \frac{x - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

But we already know that [tex] \\ \mu=6.5[/tex] inches and [tex] \\ \sigma=1.2[/tex] inches.

Thus (without using units) for values above the population's mean:

[tex] \\ 2 = \frac{x - 6.5}{1.2}[/tex]

Solving the equation for x, we multiply by 1.2 at each side of [1] :

[tex] \\ 2 * 1.2 = \frac{x - 6.5}{1.2} * 1.2[/tex]

[tex] \\ 2 * 1.2 = (x - 6.5)\frac{1.2}{1.2}[/tex]

[tex] \\ 2 * 1.2 = (x - 6.5)\frac{1.2}{1.2}[/tex]

[tex] \\ 2 * 1.2 = (x - 6.5)*1[/tex]

[tex] \\ 2 * 1.2 = x - 6.5[/tex]

Adding 6.5 at each side of the previous equation:

[tex] \\ (2 * 1.2) + 6.5 = x - 6.5 + 6.5[/tex]

[tex] \\ (2 * 1.2) + 6.5 = x + 0[/tex]

[tex] \\ (2 * 1.2) + 6.5 = x[/tex]

Therefore, the raw value, x, in the distribution that is two standard deviations above the population's mean is:

[tex] \\ x = (2 * 1.2) + 6.5[/tex]

[tex] \\ x = 2.4 + 6.5[/tex]

[tex] \\ x = 8.9[/tex] inches.

For two standard deviations below the mean, we proceed in the same way:

[tex] \\ -2 = \frac{x - 6.5}{1.2}[/tex]

[tex] \\ -2*1.2 = x - 6.5[/tex]

[tex] \\ (-2*1.2) + 6.5 = x[/tex]

[tex] \\ x = (-2*1.2) + 6.5[/tex]

[tex] \\ x = -2.4 + 6.5[/tex]

[tex] \\ x = 4.1[/tex] inches

Therefore, "according to the 68-95-99.7 rule, we expect 95% [95.45%] of head breadths to be" between 4.1 inches and 8.9 inches.

The graph below shows these values, and the shaded area represents 95% of the data, or, to be more precise, 95.45% (0.954499).

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]5(x+4)<75 \\ open \: the \: bracket \: using \: 5 \\ 5x + 20 < 75 \\ subtract \: - 20 \: from \: both \: sides \: [/tex]

[tex]5x + 20 - 20 < 75 - 20 \\ 5x < 55 \\ divide \: both \: sides \: of \: the \: equation \: \\ by \: 5[/tex]

[tex] \frac{5x}{5} < \frac{55}{5} \\ x < 11[/tex]

The required solution of inequality is,

⇒ x < 11

We have to simplify the expression,

⇒ 5 (x + 4) < 75

We can simplify it by definition of inequality as,

⇒ 5 (x + 4) < 75

⇒ 5x + 20 < 75

Subtract 20 both side,

⇒ 5x + 20 - 20 < 75 - 20

⇒ 5x < 55

⇒ 5x - 55 < 0

⇒ 5 (x - 11) < 0

⇒ x - 11 < 0

⇒ x < 11

Therefore, The required solution of inequality is,

The lengths of a professor's classes has a continuous uniform distribution between 50.0 min and 52.0 min. If one such class is randomly selected, find the probability that the class length is between 50.1 and 51.1 min. P(50.1 < X < 51.1) =

Answers

Answer:

P(50.1 < X < 51.1) = 0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

An uniform probability is a case of probability in which each outcome is equally as likely.

For this situation, we have a lower limit of the distribution that we call a and an upper limit that we call b.

The probability that we find a value X between c and d is given by the following formula:

[tex]P(c < X < d) = \frac{d - c}{b - a}[/tex]

The lengths of a professor's classes has a continuous uniform distribution between 50.0 min and 52.0 min.

This means that [tex]a = 50, b = 52[/tex]

So

[tex]P(50.1 < X < 51.1) = \frac{51.1 - 50.1}{52 - 50} = 0.5[/tex]

Could someone please help me with the steps for this problem? Factor by grouping: w²+3w+w+3

Answers

Answer:

Please see steps below

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to factor by grouping, we divide the four terms given into two groups, and extract on each group any common factor  we can.

In our example, we can select the terms: [tex]w^2[/tex]  and [tex]w[/tex] as one of our groups, and [tex]3w[/tex] and 3 in the other group. Then we re-organize the expression as:

[tex](w^2+w)+(3x+3)[/tex]

Now we extract from the first binomial group, the factor [tex]w[/tex] as a common factor of both terms, and from the second group we extract the factor "3" as common factor of those two terms:

[tex](w^2+w)+(3x+3)\\w(w+1)+3(w+1)[/tex]

We notice now that after the extraction, we are left with two exactly equal binomial factors [tex](w+1)[/tex] that appeared in the first group and in the second group. We proceed then to extract it as common factor for the two groups:

[tex]w(w+1)+3(w+1)\\(w+1)(w+3)[/tex]

this last product of two binomials ([tex](w+1)\,(w+3)[/tex] is the result of factoring the original expression.

Triangles E F G and K L M are shown. Angles E F G and K L M are congruent. The length of side K L is 6, the length of side M L is 5, and the length of K M is 8. The length of E G is 24, the length of G F is 15, and the length of E F is 18. Can the triangles be proven similar using the SSS or SAS similarity theorems? Yes, △EFG ~ △KLM only by SSS. Yes, △EFG ~ △KLM only by SAS. Yes, △EFG ~ △KLM by SSS or SAS. No, they cannot be proven similar by SSS or SAS.?

Answers

Answer:

The Answer is C: Yes, △EFG~ △KLM by SSS or SAS

Step-by-step explanation:

SSS is for side-side-side

Both triangles have all three sides given, so the SSS similarity theorem is one way to prove these triangles are similar.

SAS is for side-angle-side

Both triangles have one angle measurement given, and two side lengths given, therefore we can also use the SAS similarity theorem to prove the two triangles are similar.  

Since both SSS and SAS work to prove the triangles are similar, the correct answer is C: Yes, △EFG~ △KLM by SSS or SAS

Every product manufactured by a company goes through 6 different tests before being shipped out. It is known that the probability that a product passes any single test is 0.9 and the tests are independent. Only those products that pass the first three tests and also pass at least one of the three remaining tests are shipped out. Find the probability that a manufactured product is shipped out.

Answers

Answer:

The Probability that the product is shipped out is 0.7283

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we are given that, a product passes through 6 tests before it is shipped out and a product is shipped out only if it passes all the first 3 tests and at least 1 of the remaining 3 tests.

We have P(pass)= 0.9, is the Probability of passing any test.

Which implies, P(fail)= 1- 0.9= 0.1

We have to find the Probability that the product is shipped out.

P(product is shipped out) = P(it passes first 3 tests )*P(passes at least 1 of the remaining 3 tests) •••••••••••(i)

We can take the product as the tests are Independent.

Now, let us obtain

P(it passes first 3 tests ) = P(pass)*P(pass)*P(pass)

=P(pass)]^3 = (0.9)^3 = 0.729

Hence, P( it passes first 3 tests)= 0.729 •••••••(ii)

Now,

P(passes at least 1 of the remaining 3 tests)

= 1-P(fails all the 3 remaining tests)

= 1-(0.1)^3 = 1 - 0.001 = 0.999

Hence,

P(passes atleast 1 of the remaining 3 tests)=0.999 ••••••••(iii)

Now, substituting the 2nd and 3rd equations in the first equation, we have;

P(product is shipped out) = P(it passes first 3 tests )*P(passes at least 1 of the remaining 3 tests)

= (0.729)*(0.999)

= 0.728271

= 0.7283

deck of the sailboat to the top of the lighthouse is 28°. Calculate the distance
between the sailboat and the lighthouse.

Answers

Answer:

  188 m

Step-by-step explanation:

The tangent of the angle is the ratio of the side opposite (height of the lighthouse) to the side adjacent (distance to the lighthouse):

  tan(28°) = (100 m)/distance

  distance = (100 m)/tan(28°) ≈ 188 m

The distance between the sailboat and the lighthouse is about 188 m.
