The lengths of nails produced in a factory are normally distributed with a mean of 5.16 centimeters and a standard deviation of 0.04 centimeters. Find the two lengths that separate the top 8% and the bottom 8%.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The length that separates the top 8% is of 5.2162 centimeters, and the length that separates the bottom 8% is of 5.1038 centimeters.

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Probability Distribution

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score of a measure X is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Mean of 5.16 centimeters and a standard deviation of 0.04 centimeters.

This means that [tex]\mu = 5.16, \sigma = 0.04[/tex]

Length that separates the top 8%

The 100 - 8 = 92th percentile, which is X when Z has a p-value of 0.92, so X when Z = 1.405.

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]1.405 = \frac{X - 5.16}{0.04}[/tex]

[tex]X - 5.16 = 1.405*0.04[/tex]

[tex]X = 5.2162[/tex]

Length that separates the bottom 8%

This is the 8th percentile, which is X when Z has a p-value of 0.08, so X when Z = -1.405.

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]-1.405 = \frac{X - 5.16}{0.04}[/tex]

[tex]X - 5.16 = -1.405*0.04[/tex]

[tex]X = 5.1038[/tex]

The length that separates the top 8% is of 5.2162 centimeters, and the length that separates the bottom 8% is of 5.1038 centimeters.

What rate of interest is required so that $1000 will yield $1900 after 5 years if the interest rate is compounded monthly?

Answers

Answer:

12.906%/year

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

Principal= $1000

Final Amount= $1900

Time= 5 years

The compound interest formula is given as

A= P(1+ r/n)^nt

Solving for rate r as a decimal

r = n[(A/P)1/nt - 1]

r = 12 × [(1,900.00/1,000.00)1/(12)(5) - 1]

r = 0.12906

Then convert r to R as a percentage

R = r * 100

R = 0.12906 * 100

R = 12.906%/year

Christen returned an overdue book to the library. Her fine was the same as the amount on the following day. Out of the fines shown below, which one would be closest to the number of days overdue?

Answers

Answer: 21 days overdue

Explanation: Since her fine was same as the amount on the following day. 21 will be closest to the number of day overdue so it is 21 days.

Answer:

22

Explanation:

 They are saying that it has to be the closest number to the number of days overdue, cannot be neither 10 nor 14, and it cannot be 18 because that's one day from the days it's been overdue, and the question is saying: Her fine was the same as the amount on the following day. The graph shows us that it is about 1 more day than 18, so the only reasonable answer here is 22.

A transformer has 500 turns in its primary coil and 200 in the secondary coil.
a) If an AC voltage of 220 V and frequency 50 Hz is established in the primary coil, find the voltage
and the frequency induced in the secondary coil. (2)​

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

88 V50 Hz

Step-by-step explanation:

The secondary voltage is proportional to the primary voltage. The constant of proportionality is the ratio of secondary turns to primary turns.

The secondary voltage is ...

  (200/500)(220 V) = 88 V

__

A transformer does not change the frequency.* The voltage in the secondary coil is still 50 Hz.

_____

* Most transformers are designed to operate as linear devices. It is possible to design a transformer (with special core material) that operates non-linearly, and/or that is "tuned" to a frequency other than the one exciting the primary. That is, the secondary voltage may be some harmonic of the primary voltage. This would be a relatively unusual application of a transformer, beyond the apparent scope of the question here.

In the following distribution, P(X<2) = 0.35, and expected value is 1.9

X 0 1 2 3 4
P(X) 0.10 A 0.35 B C

Required:
a. Use the fact that P(X< 2) = 0.35 to find the value of A.
b. Determine the value of B.
c. Determine the value of C.

Answers

Solution :

We have :

X            0     1          2    3   4

P(X)     0.10   A    0.35   B    C

a). P(X < 2) = 0.35

P(X < 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) = 0.35

⇒ 0.10 + A = 0.35

⇒ A = 0.25

So the value of A is 0.25

b). The total probability = 1

So ,

0.10 + A + 0.35 + B + C = 1

0.10 + 0.25 + 0.35 + B + C = 1

B + C  = 1 - 0.70

B + C  = 0.30  ......(i)

We have the expected value = 1.9

So, [tex]$\sum X P(X) = 19$[/tex]     for x  = 0, 1, 2, 3, 4

⇒ (0 x 0.10) + (1 x 0.25) + (2 x 0.35) + (3 x B) + (4 x C) = 1.9

⇒ 0 + 0.25 + 0.70 + 3B + 4C = 1.9

⇒ 3B + 4C = 1.9 - 0.95

⇒ 3B + 4C = 0.95   ...................(ii)

From (i), we take the value of B = 0.30 - C and substitute it in the equation (i), we get,

⇒ 3( 0.30 - C) + 4C = 0.95

⇒ 0.90 - 3C + 4C = 0.95

C = 0.95 - 0.90

       = 0.05

Now substituting the value of C = 0.05 in (ii), we get,

⇒ B = 0.05 = 0.30

⇒ B = 0.25

c). The value of C is 0.05

Answers

Answer: x-3/(x-3)(x+2) - 5/8x ➡️ 1/x+2 - 5/8x ➡️ 8x-5(x+2)/(x+2)(8x) ➡️ 3x-10/8x^2+16x

Just did this the other day...

The steps to simplify the expression (x - 3) / (x² - x - 5) - (5 / 8x) are,

Find the common denominator: LCM of (x² - x - 5) and 8x is 8x(x² - x - 5).

Rewrite the first fraction with the common denominator: [(x - 3)× 8x] / [8x(x² - x - 5)] - (5 / 8x).

Combine the fractions: [(8x² - 24x) - 5(x² - x - 5)] / [8x(x² - x - 5)].

Factor the denominator: 8x(x² - x - 5).

Simplify the expression: (8x² - 5x²) + (-24x + 5x) + 25 / [8x(x² - x - 5)].

Further simplify the numerator: 3x² - 19x + 25.

Final result: (3x² - 19x + 25) / [8x(x² - x - 5)].

To simplify the given difference of two expressions into one, simplified rational expression, follow these steps in the correct order:

Find a common denominator for the two fractions.

The common denominator for the fractions is the least common multiple (LCM) of the individual denominators, which are (x² - x - 5) and 8x. The LCM is 8x(x² - x - 5).

Rewrite the first fraction with the common denominator.

(x - 3) / (x² - x - 5) - (5 / 8x) = [(x - 3) × 8x] / [8x(x² - x - 5)] - (5 / 8x)

Combine the fractions by subtracting them.

= [(8x² - 24x) - 5(x² - x - 5)] / [8x(x² - x - 5)]

Factor the denominator of the resulting expression (if possible).

The denominator 8x(x² - x - 5) is already factored.

Simplify the expression, if possible.

= [8x² - 24x - 5x² + 5x + 25] / [8x(x² - x - 5)]

Combine like terms in the numerator.

= (8x² - 5x²) + (-24x + 5x) + 25 / [8x(x² - x - 5)]

Simplify the numerator further.

= 3x² - 19x + 25 / [8x(x² - x - 5)]

Therefore , the final simplified rational expression is equal to (3x² - 19x + 25) / [8x(x² - x - 5)].

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

You can multiply both the numerator and denominator by any number

Option #3: Lets multiply by 1/2 since when you multiply 6*1/2 it equals 3 and that is the same numerator as option #3 and so now let's do the same again to the denominator 10*1/2 equals 5 and that is NOT equal to 6 in the denominator for option #3 and you can't get 3 any other way than multiplying by 1/2 (same as *.5) and so it is wrong.

Now since we know how to do it I'll just do the math for the rest.

Option 1:

6/10

6*2/10*2

12/20 and that doesn't match so it's wrong.

Option 2:

It matches so it's correct let's try option 4 just to check.

Option 4:

that doesn't match so it's wrong (you could have tried multiplying by decimals by I doubt you are there to that kind of math yet.)
