Accrotime is a manufacturer of quartz crystal watches. Accrotime researchers have shown that the watches have an average life of 26 months before certain electronic components deteriorate, causing the watch to become unreliable. The standard deviation of watch lifetimes is 4 months, and the distribution of lifetimes is normal. A button hyperlink to the SALT program that reads: Use SALT. (a) If Accrotime guarantees a full refund on any defective watch for 2 years after purchase, what percentage of total production will the company expect to replace? (Round your answer to two decimal places.) Incorrect: Your answer is incorrect. % (b) If Accrotime does not want to make refunds on more than 6% of the watches it makes, how long should the guarantee period be (to the nearest month)? months

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a

   [tex]P(X <  24 )=  21.186\%  [/tex]  

b

    [tex]x =  19.78 \  months[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

 The mean is   [tex]\mu  =  26 \  months[/tex]

 The standard deviation is  [tex]\sigma  =  4 \  months[/tex]

 Generally 2 year is  equal to  24 months

Generally the percentage of total production will the company expect to replace is mathematically represented as

      [tex]P(X <  24 )=  P(\frac{X - \mu }{ \sigma} <  \frac{24 - 26}{4}  )[/tex]

Generally  [tex]\frac{X - \mu}{\sigma } =Z (The  \ standardized \  value  \  of  \  X )[/tex]

     [tex]P(X <  24 )=  P(Z <  -0.8  )[/tex]

Generally from the z-table  

       [tex]P(Z <  -0.8) =  0.21186[/tex]

So

       [tex]P(X <  24 )=  0.21186[/tex]

Converting to percentage

      [tex]P(X <  24 )=  0.21186  * 100[/tex]

=>    [tex]P(X <  24 )=  21.186\%  [/tex]  

Generally the duration that should be the guarantee period if  Accrotime does not want to make refunds on more than 6% is mathematically evaluated as

    [tex]P(X <  x) =  P(\frac{X - \mu }{\sigma}  < \frac{x - 26}{4} )= 0.06[/tex]

=> [tex]P(X <  x) =  P(Z < \frac{x - 26}{4} )= 0.06[/tex]

From the normal distribution table the z-score for  0.06 at the lower tail  is

       [tex]z = -1.555[/tex]

So

    [tex]\frac{x - 26}{4} = -1.555[/tex]

=> [tex]x =  19.78 \  months[/tex]

4x^2 -20x +25≥0​

Answers

Answer:

x ≥ [tex]\frac{5}{2}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation:

     4x² -20x + 25≥0​

To solve for x, we simply factorize the equation;

We should find two numbers whose sum = -20 and product is 100

  These two numbers are -10 and -10

So;

    4x² - 10x - 10x + 25 ≥ 0​

   factorize;

    2x(2x - 5) - 5(2x - 5) ≥ 0​

   (2x - 5) (2x - 5) ≥ 0​

    So;

        2x - 5 ≥ 0​

         2x ≥ 5

            x ≥ [tex]\frac{5}{2}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 60 seconds in 1 min and there are 60 mins in 1 hour. So in an hour there are 60 × 60 = 3600 seconds. There are 24 hours in a day. In a day, there are 3600 × 24 = 86400 seconds. A year is 365 days. So in a year there are 86400 × 365 = 31536000 seconds.

The answer 16 8+8=16

The area of the circle radius as 8 inches will be 201.062 inches².

What is a circle?

A circle is a geometrical figure which becomes by plotting a point around a fixed point by keeping a constant distance.

In our daily life, we always see circular objects for example our bike wheel.

The longest line which can be drawn inside the circle will be the diameter.

Area of circle = πr² and the perimeter of circle = 2πr where r is the radius of the circle.

Given the circle with a radius BC of 8 inches.

Area of circle = πr² where r is the radius of the circle.

So,

Area = π(8)² = 201.062 inches.

Hence "The area of the circle radius as 8 inches will be 201.062 inches².

A triangle has sides with lengths of 7 millimeters, 8 millimeters, and 10 millimeters. Is it a
right triangle?

Answers

Answer:

Depends if you are averaging C or not.

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the pythagorean theorem to solve this.

c = √a^2 + b^2

A and B should be two of your sides and C should equal your third side. If C is incorrect, it is not a right triangle. I plugged in 7 for A and 8 for B. The answer was about 10.63. If you are supposed to round C then yes, it is a right triangle. If you aren't supposed to round C (probably not) then no, It isn't a right triangle.

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 3 is the equation of a horizontal line parallel to the x- axis.

A line perpendicular to it must therefore be a vertical line parallel to the y- axis with equation

x = c

where c is the value of the x- coordinates the line passes through.

The line passes through (3, 5) with x- coordinate 3 , thus

I did 212 divided by 30 which is 7.06666666667 which is closest to 7 then 8 so the answer would be 7. I know this is about right because 7 times 30 is 210 which is closest to 212 then 8*30 which is 240.
