Answer:
x=0 x=-4
Step-by-step explanation:
6x^2 + 24x = 0
Factor out the common factor
6x(x+4) =0
Using the zero product property
6x =0 x+4 =0
x=0 x=-4
The lengths of pregnancies are normally distributed with a mean of 250 days and a standard deviation of 15 days.
a. Find the probability of a pregnancy lasting 308 days or longer?
b. If we stipulate that a baby is premature if the length of the pregnancy is in the lowest 8% (8th percentile), find the length that separates premature babies from those who are not premature.
Answer:
a) 0.005% probability of a pregnancy lasting 308 days or longer
b) The pregnancy length that separates premature babies from those who are not premature is 229 days.
Step-by-step explanation:
Problems of normally distributed samples can be solved using the z-score formula.
In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the zscore 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 pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.
In this question, we have that:
[tex]\mu = 250, \sigma = 15[/tex]
a. Find the probability of a pregnancy lasting 308 days or longer?
This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 308. So
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{308 - 250}{15}[/tex]
[tex]Z = 3.87[/tex]
[tex]Z = 3.87[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.99995
1 - 0.99995 - 0.00005
0.005% probability of a pregnancy lasting 308 days or longer
b. If we stipulate that a baby is premature if the length of the pregnancy is in the lowest 8% (8th percentile), find the length that separates premature babies from those who are not premature.
The 8th percentile is X when Z has a pvalue of 0.08. So it is X when Z = -1.405.
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]-1.405 = \frac{X - 250}{15}[/tex]
[tex]X - 250 = -1.405*15[/tex]
[tex]X = -1.405*15 + 250[/tex]
[tex]X = 229[/tex]
The pregnancy length that separates premature babies from those who are not premature is 229 days.
Prob-4 Pressurized air are being used in a manufacturing company in its daily operation. There are three compressors in service; two-screw type compressors, (S1 ,S2) and one-reciprocal type compressor,(R). Each compressor, at any given time, is either off (0), or on (1) . Assume that event A is denoted to reciprocal compressor (R) that is always off . Event B is denoted that at least one of the screw type of compressor is always on. Assume that all outcomes in event B are equally likely. If P(A∩B)=45% and P(A∪B)=93%. Compute the probability that all compressors are off
Answer:
The probability that all compressors are off = P(A ∩ B') = 0.18
Step-by-step explanation:
Event A is denoted to reciprocal compressor (R) that is always off.
Event B is denoted that at least one of the screw type of compressor is always on.
P(A) = Probability that the reciprocal compressor is off.
P(A') = Probability that the reciprocal compressor is on.
P(B) = Probability that at least one of the screw type of compressor is on.
P(B') = Probability that at least one of the screw type of compressor is off.
P(A ∩ B) = 45% = 0.45
P(A ∪ B) = 93% = 0.93
P(U) = P(A ∪ B) + P(A' ∩ B')
1 = 0.93 + P(A' ∩ B')
P(A' ∩ B') = 1 - 0.93 = 0.07
The probability that all compressors are off is given as P(A ∩ B')
P(A) = P(A n B') + P(A n B)
P(B) = P(A n B) + P(A' n B)
The question asks us to assume that all outcomes in event B are equally likely.
The possible outcomes in event B include
- The two compressors are on
- First compressor is on, second compressor is off
- Second compressor is on, first compressor is off
- both compressors are off
Since all the outcomes are equally likely, the probability that at least one of the two compressors is on = (3/4) = 0.75 = P(B)
P(B) = P(A n B) + P(A' n B)
0.75 = 0.45 + P(A' n B)
P(A' n B) = 0.75 - 0.45 = 0.30
P(A ∪ B) = P(A ∩ B') + P(A' ∩ B) + P(A ∩ B)
0.93 = P(A ∩ B') + 0.30 + 0.45
P(A ∩ B') = 0.93 - 0.30 - 0.45 = 0.18
Hope this Helps!!!

A vendor at a street fair sells popcorn in cones, all of height 9 inches. The
sharing-size cone has 3 times the radius of the skinny-size cone. About how
many times more popcorn does the sharing cone hold than the skinny cone?
Answer:
The sharing cone holds about 9 times more popcorn than the skinny cone.
Step-by-step explanation:
The volume of a cone is given by the following formula:
[tex]V = \frac{\pi r^{2}h}{3}[/tex]
In which r is the radius and h is the height.
Two cones:
Both have the same height.
The sharing-size cone has 3 times the radius of the skinny-size cone.
Skinny:
radius r, height h. So
[tex]V_{sk} = \frac{\pi r^{2}h}{3}[/tex]
Sharing size:
radius 3r, height h. So
[tex]V_{sh} = \frac{\pi (3r)^{2}h}{3} = \frac{9\pi r^{2}h}{3} = 3\pi r^{2}h[/tex]
About how many times more popcorn does the sharing cone hold than the skinny cone?
[tex]r = \frac{V_{sh}}{V_{sk}} = \frac{3\pi r^{2}h}{\frac{\pi r^{2}h}{3}} = \frac{3*3\pi r^{2}h}{\pi r^{2}h} = 9[/tex]
The sharing cone holds about 9 times more popcorn than the skinny cone.

B)y=5x(x-2)
C) y=5x-2
D)y=2x(5-1)
Answer:
B.)
Step-by-step explanation:
A linear equation, remember, is y = mx + b.

Two chemists working for a chicken fast-food company, have been producing a very popular sauce. Let’s call then Jesse and Mr. White. Gus, their boss, is tired of Mr. White’s negative attitude and is thinking about "firing" him and keeping only Jesse on the payroll. The problem, however, is that Mr. White seems to produce a higher quality sauce whenever he is in charge of production if compared to Jesse. Before making a final decision, Gus collected some data measuring the quality of different batches of sauce produced by Mr. White and Jesse. We assume the quality measurements for both of them are normally distributed with the common variance. The results, measured on a quality scale, are listed below:
Mr. White 97 1 7
Jesse 94 3 10
a. Based on this data, can we tell for sure (with 95% confidence) which one is the better chemist?
b. Gus wants to keep the mean quality score for the sauce above 90. In this case, can he can rid of Mr. White, i.e., is Jesse good enough to run the sauce production?
Answer:
Check the explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
Let [tex]\overline{x}[/tex] and [tex]\overline{y}[/tex] be sample means of white and Jesse denotes are two random variables.
Given that both samples are having normally distributed.
Assume [tex]\overline{x}[/tex] having with mean [tex]\mu_{1}[/tex] and [tex]\overline{y}[/tex] having mean [tex]\mu_{2}[/tex]
Also we have given the variance is constant
A)
We can test hypothesis as
[tex]H0: \mu_{1} = \mu_{2}H1: \mu_{1} > \mu_{2}[/tex]
For this problem
Test statistic is
[tex]T=\frac{\overline {x}-\overline {y}}{s\sqrt{\frac {1}{n1} +\frac{1}{n2}}}[/tex]
Where
[tex]s=\sqrt{\frac{(n1-1)*s1^{2}+(n2-1)*s2^{2}}{n1+n2-2}}[/tex]
We have given all information for samples
By calculations we get
s=2.41
T=2.52
Here test statistic is having t-distribution with df=(10+7-2)=15
So p-value is P(t15>2.52)=0.012
Here significance level is 0.05
Since p-value is <0.05 we are rejecting null hypothesis at 95% confidence.
We can conclude that White has significant higher mean than Jesse. This claim we can made at 95% confidence.

Answer:
Yes
Step-by-step explanation:
We have the inequality:
x-7 > 27
To solve this, we have to get by itself. 7 is being subtracted from x. To undo this, add 7 to both sides, since addition is the opposite of subtraction.
x-7+7>27+7

The difference between the most hours of sleep and the least of these students was 2.5 hours. True or false?
The correct anwer is False
Explanation
According to the graph, it can be seen that a student has four hours of sleep as the minimum number of hours of sleep; two students have six hours of sleep, four students have six and a half hours of sleep, four have seven hours of sleep, three have seven and a half hours of sleep, five have eight hours of sleep, and one has eight and a half hours of sleep as maximum hours of sleep. Therefore, it can be affirmed that the statement that the difference between the maximum amount and the minimum number of hours is two and a half hours is false because between four hours and eight and a half hours there are four and a half hours of difference. So, the correct answer is False.

A pollen grain is 3/10 to the third power centimeters wide. In an illustration, the pollen grain is 6 centimeters 10 wide. How much larger is the illustration than the actual pollen?
Answer:
The illustration is approximately 226 times larder than the actual pollen grain.
Step-by-step explanation:
First of all, we have to write out the size of the actual pollen grain in a manner that is easy for us to work with.
This will be
[tex](\frac{3}{10}) ^{3}=0.027cm[/tex] wide
The original width of the pollen is 0.027 cm.
Next,
We can take the width of the illustration to be 6.10 cm wide.
After this,
To get the magnification factor, we will have to use the formula
Magnification = illustrated size/ actual size
This will be the magnification = [tex]6.10/0.027[/tex] = 255.92 times
Hence, the illustration is approximately 226 times larder than the actual pollen grain.
Collete mapped her vegetable garden on the graph below. Each unit represents 1 foot.
Collete plants an 8-foot row of lettuce in the garden. Which points could tell where the row of
lettuce starts and ends?
(-4,-1) and (-4,7)
| (-1, –4) a (
74)
(-1,-6) and (8,-6)
(-6, -1) and (-6,8)
Answer:
(-4,-1) and (-4,7)Step-by-step explanation:
If Collete planted a row of lettuce, that means their coordinates must have the same vertical coordinate, or the same horizontal coordinate. Another important characteristic is that between those points, there must have 8 units of separation, because it's an 8-foot row.
Only the first choice offers these characteristic to properly represent the row of plants with 8 feet distance between the first and the last plant.
Therefore, the answer is (-4,-1) and (-4,7)
Answer:
(-4, -1) and (-4, 7)
