Lisa has collected data to find that the number of pages per book on a book shelf has a normal distribution. What is the probability that a randomly selected book has less than 168 pages if the mean is 192 pages and the standard deviation is 24 pages? Use the empirical rule. Enter your answer as a percent rounded to two decimal places if necessary.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The answer is "Thus a chosen random book has a 15.87% chance of fewer than 170 pages".

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]Mean = 190\\\\\text{Standard devaition} \ \sigma= 20\\\\\to P(\bar{x}<70)\\\\Z = \frac{(170-190)}{20}[/tex]

   [tex]= \frac{-20}{20} \\\\=-1[/tex]

It found a p-value from its empirical rule:

[tex]\to P(\bar{x}<170) = 0.1587[/tex]

A manufacturer of women’s blouses has noticed that 80% of their blouses have no flaws, 15% have one flaw, and 5% have two flaws. If you buy a new blouse from this manufacturer, the expected number of flaws will be:_________

a. 0.15
b. 0.20
c. 0.80
d. 1.00
e. none of the above

Answers

Answer:

b

Step-by-step explanation:

80% +15% +5%=100

15/100= 0.15

5/100= 0.05

therfore

0.15 + 0.05 = number of flaws

=0.20

Based on the flaws that the manufacturer notices, we can infer that the expected number of flaws will be 0.25 which is e. none of the above.

The expected number of flaws is a weighted average of the percentages that have flaws:

=∑ (Percentage of flaws x Number of flaws)

The expected number of flaws is therefore:

= (80% x 0) + (15% x 1) + (5% x 2)

= 15% + 10%

= 0.25

In conclusion, you would expected the number of flaws to be 0.25.

the length of a triangle is 3 centimeters less than twice its width its area is 35 square centimeters find the dimensions of the rectangle use formula area=length*width the width is ?_ the Length is?_

Answers

[tex] \LARGE{ \underline{ \tt{Required \: answer:}}}[/tex]

We have:

The length of a triangle is 3 centimeters less than twice its width.Area = 35 cm²

We need to find:

Dimensions of the rectangle?

Solution:

Let the width be w. Then the length would be:

➝ Length = 2(width) - 3

➝ l = 2w - 3

Area of rectangle: l × b

➝ Length × width = 35 cm²

➝ (2w - 3)w = 35

➝ 2w² - 3w - 35 = 0

Now finding value of x by middle term factorisation,

➝ 2w² - 10w + 7w - 35 = 0

➝ 2w(w - 5) + 7(w - 5) = 0

➝ (2w + 7)(w - 5) = 0

Hence,

w = 5 because width can't be negative.l = 2(5) - 3 = 7

Therefore,

Width = 5 cmLength = 7 cm

⛱️ [tex] \large{ \blue{ \bf{FadedElla}}}[/tex]

let x represent the rectangle's width;

thus;

Width = x

Length = 2x - 3

Area = 35 sq. cm.

Area = Length × Width

35 = (2x - 3)(x)

35 = 2x^2 - 3x

2x^2 - 3x - 35 = 0

Factorizing:

x = 5 or -3.5

but width is a scalar quantity and cannot be negative:

Hence:

Width = 5 cm.

Length = 2(5) - 3 = 7 cm.

6x = 41

x = 7 to the nearest whole number.

Width = 7 cm.

Length = 2(7) - 3 = 11 cm.

Answers

Answer:

X = 18

Step-by-step explanation:

the sum of each angle should be 180°, so if you add them all together should give you 180° and from there you change the value for x, and you find each angle.

2x + x + 7x = 180

10x = 180

x = 18

2*18 = 36°

18°

Use the method of lagrange multipliers to find

a. The minimum value of x+y, subject to the constraints xy=196, x>0, y>0
b. The maximum value of xy, subject to the constaint of x+y=196

Answers

Answer:

a) The function is: f(x, y) = x + y.

The constraint is: x*y = 196.

Remember that we must write the constraint as:

g(x, y) = x*y - 196 = 0

Then we have:

L(x, y, λ) = f(x, y) +  λ*g(x, y)

L(x, y,  λ) = x + y +  λ*(x*y - 196)

Now, let's compute the partial derivations, those must be zero.

dL/dx =  λ*y + 1

dL/dy =  λ*x + 1

dL/dλ = (x*y - 196)

Those must be equal to zero, then we have a system of equations:

λ*y + 1 = 0

λ*x + 1 = 0

(x*y - 196) = 0

Let's solve this, in the first equation we can isolate  λ to get:

λ = -1/y

Now we can replace this in the second equation and get;

-x/y + 1 = 0

Now let's isolate x.

x = y

Now we can replace this in the last equation, and we will get:

(x*x - 196) = 0

x^2 = 196

x = √196 = 14

then the minimum will be:

x + y = x + x = 14 + 14 = 28.

b) Now we have:

f(x) = x*y

g(x) = x + y - 196

Let's do the same as before:

L(x, y, λ) = f(x, y) +  λ*g(x, y)

L(x, y, λ) = x*y +  λ*(x + y - 196)

Now let's do the derivations:

dL/dx = y + λ

dL/dy = x + λ

dL/dλ = x + y - 196

Now we have the system of equations:

y + λ = 0

x + λ = 0

x + y - 196 = 0

To solve it, we can isolate lambda in the first equation to get:

λ = -y

Now we can replace this in the second equation:

x - y = 0

Now we can isolate x:

x = y

now we can replace that in the last equation

y + y - 196 = 0

2*y - 196 = 0

2*y = 196

y = 196/2 = 98

The maximum will be:

x*y = y*y = 98*98 = 9,604

Step-by-step explanation:

7% of 31 is ...

  0.07 × 31 = 2.17

When we say the value can vary from 31 by 7%, we usually mean it can go that much lower or higher. For some value x, this means ...

  31 -2.17 ≤ x ≤ 31 +2.17

  28.83 ≤ x ≤ 33.17

investments is $ 3610, how much was invested in each account?
Maricopa Success invested $___in stocks.
in bonds.
Maricopa Success invested $___ in bonds.
Maricopa Success invested $____in CDs.

Answers

Answer:

Maricopa's Success invests $25,000 in stocks, $40,000 in bonds, and $10,000 in CDs.

Step-by-step explanation:

a = Stocks

b = Bonds

c = CDs

a + b + c = 75000

b = 30000 + c

a = 75000 - c - 30000 - c = 45000 - 2c

0.065(45000 - 2c) + 0.044(30000 + c) + 0.0225c = 3610

2925 - 0.13c + 1320 + 0.044c + 0.0225c = 3610

0.0635c = 635

c = 10000

So b = 40000 and a = 25000



For f(x) =1/x^2-3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]f(x) = \frac{1}{x^2} - 3[/tex]

Required

Find f(3) and f(2 + h)

Solving f(3)

Substitute 3 for x in [tex]f(x) = \frac{1}{x^2} - 3[/tex]

[tex]f(3) = \frac{1}{3^2} - 3[/tex]

[tex]f(3) = \frac{1}{9} - 3[/tex]

Take LCM

[tex]f(3) = \frac{1 - 27}{9}[/tex]

[tex]f(3) = \frac{-26}{9}[/tex]

Solving f(2 + h)

Substitute 2 + h for x in [tex]f(x) = \frac{1}{x^2} - 3[/tex]

[tex]f(2 + h) = \frac{1}{(2 + h)^2} - 3[/tex]

[tex]f(2 + h) = \frac{1}{(2 + h)(2 + h)} - 3[/tex]

[tex]f(2 + h) = \frac{1}{4 + 2h + 2h + h^2} - 3[/tex]

[tex]f(2 + h) = \frac{1}{4 + 4h + h^2} - 3[/tex]

Take LCM

[tex]f(2 + h) = \frac{1- 3(4 + 4h + h^2)}{4 + 4h + h^2}[/tex]

[tex]f(2 + h) = \frac{1- 12 - 12h - 12^2}{4 + 4h + h^2}[/tex]

In rectangle ABCD, point E lies half way between sides AB and CD and halfway between sides AD and BC. If AB=3 and BC=2, what is the area of the shaded region? Write your answer as a decimal, if necessary. Do not include units in your answer.

Answers

Answer:

The area of the shaded region is 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since point E lies halfway between AB and BC, the area of the shaded region (As) consists of two identical triangles with base equal to AB and height equal to half the measure of BC:

[tex]A_s=2 * A_t[/tex]

Where At is the area of each triangle.

[tex]\displaystyle A_t=\frac{AB*BC/2}{2}[/tex]

[tex]\displaystyle A_t=\frac{AB*BC}{4}[/tex]

We know AB=3 and BC=2, thus:

[tex]\displaystyle A_t=\frac{3*2}{4}=\frac{6}{4}[/tex]

Simplifying:

[tex]\displaystyle A_t=\frac{3}{2}[/tex]

Finally:

[tex]\displaystyle A_s=2 * \frac{3}{2}[/tex]

[tex]A_s=3[/tex]

The area of the shaded region is 3.

Note the area of the shaded region is half the area of the rectangle.
