Ace Heating and Air Conditioning Service finds that the amount of time a repairman needs to fix a furnace is uniformly distributed from 5 and 9 hours. . Let x = the time needed to fix a furnace.

Required:
a. What is the probability that it takes the repairman more than 7 hours to fix a furnace?
b. Find the probability that a randomly selected furnace repair requires less than 3 hours.
c. Find the 30th percentile of furnace repair times.
d. The longest 25% of repair furnace repairs take at least how long? (In other words: Find the minimum time for the longest 25% of repair times.) What percentile does this represent?
e. Find the mean and standard deviation

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a

[tex]P(X > 7) = 0.5[/tex]

b

[tex]P(X < 3) = -0.5[/tex]

c

[tex]x = 6.2 \ hours[/tex]

d

[tex]x_1 = 8 \ hours[/tex]

e

Mean [tex]\mu = 7[/tex]

Standard deviation [tex]s \approx 1.1547[/tex]  

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

  The amount of time a repairman needs to fix a furnace is uniformly distributed from 5 and 9 hours

Generally the probability that it takes the repairman more than 7 hours to fix a furnace is mathematically represented as

     [tex]P(X > 7) = \frac{9- 7}{9-5}[/tex]

=>[tex]P(X > 7) = 0.5[/tex]

Generally the probability that a randomly selected furnace repair requires less than 3 hours. is mathematically represented as

     [tex]P(X < 3) = \frac{3 -5}{9-5}[/tex]

=>[tex]P(X < 3) = -0.5[/tex]

Generally the 30th percentile of furnace repair times is mathematically represented as

     [tex]30^{th} \ percentile = \frac{x - 5}{9-5}[/tex]

=>  [tex]0.3 = \frac{x - 5}{9-5}[/tex]

=>  [tex]x = 6.2 \ hours[/tex]

Generally the time taken for the longest 25% of furnace repair is mathematically evaluated as

  [tex]75^{th} \ percentile = \frac{x_1 - 5}{9-5}[/tex]

Here making use of the [tex]75^{th}[/tex] because we are considering duration that fall with the top [tex]25^{th}[/tex]

=> [tex]0.75 = \frac{x_1 - 5}{9-5}[/tex]

=> [tex]x_1 = 8 \ hours[/tex]

Generally the mean is mathematically represented as

          [tex]\mu = \frac{5 + 9 }{2}[/tex]

=>        [tex]\mu = 7[/tex]

Generally the standard deviation is mathematically represented as

     [tex]s = \sqrt{ \frac{(9- 5)^2}{12} }[/tex]  

=>   [tex]s \approx 1.1547[/tex]

at its peak in online shopping site was selling about 420 items per second at this rate how many items would it sell in 30 mins( 1800 seconds?)​

Answers

Answer:.

Step-by-step explanation:

The online shopping site would sell; 756000 items in 30 minutes

What is the fundamental principle of multiplication?

Multiplication is the mathematical operation that is used to determine the product of two or more numbers.

Given that the online site would sell 420 items in a second

To determine the number of items it would sell in 30 minutes first of all convert minutes into seconds.

To convert minutes into seconds, we will just multiply minutes with 60.

WE know that one minute is equal to 60 seconds.

Therefore 30 minutes = 30 x 60 seconds

30 minutes = 1800 seconds

Thus the number of items sold in 30 minutes be x.

now,

420 x 1800 = x

x= 756000

Hence, It is found that the site will sell 756000 items in 30 minutes.

awnser A is incorrect because if you switch out the x for 3 and the y for -8. The equation would look like -3+3×(-8)=21. and after multiplying 3×-8 which equals -24. The equation turns into -3+(-24)=21 . And after adding -3 and -24 you get -27=21

awnser B is correct because if you switch out the x for -3 and the y for 8. The equation would look like -3+3×8=21. After multiplying 3×8 which equals 24. The equation turns into -3+24=21. And after adding -3and 24 which is pretty much subtracting you get 21=21.

Angela is playing with red and black marbles. The number of red marbles she has is three
more than twice the number of black marbles she has. She has 42 marbles in all. Which
system of equations can be used to find the number of red marbles, R, and black marbles, B?o

Answers

Answer:

We will need two equations, one that adds up to the total number of marbles, and the other which writes one type of marbles in terms of the other.

For the first equation we know that:

[tex]r + b = 42[/tex]

For the second we are told that "The number of red marbles she has is three  more than twice the number of black marbles she has."

So we simply translate this into an equation being:

[tex]r = 2b + 3[/tex]

.The annual yield per orange tree is fairly constant at 270 pounds per tree when the number of trees per acre is 30 or fewer. For each additional tree over 30, the annual yield per tree for all trees on the acre decreases by 3 pounds due to overcrowding. Find the number of orange trees per acre, x, that maximizes the total yield for an acre, T, in pounds. What is the total maximum yield in pounds of oranges

Answers

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the yield per hectare be Y and the number of orange trees per acre, x. For fewer than or 30 trees there is a yield of  270 pounds per tree, therefore:

Y(x) = 270    for x ≤ 30

If it is more than 30 trees the yield decreases by 3 pounds, hence:

Y(x) = 270 - 3(x - 30) = 360 - 3x   for x > 30

The total yield T is given as T(x) = x × Y

T(x) = x × 270 = 270x   for x ≤ 30

T(x) =  x(360 - 3x) = 360x - 3x²   for x > 30

The maximum yield is at T'(x) = 0

T'(x) = 360 - 6x

360 - 6x = 0

6x = 360

x = 360/6

x = 60

T(6) = 360(60) - 3(60²) = 10800 pounds

A submarine cruised below the surface of the water. During a training exercise, it made 6 dives, each time descending 35 feet more. Then it rose 122 feet. What is the change in the submarine’s position?

Answers

Answer:

68 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

A submarine cruised  below the surface of the water

During training exercise, each time descending= 45 feet

Number of dives= 4

Total distance he descended= 45×4 feet

Total distance he descended= 180 feet

Then, it rose by= 112 feet

Now , the distance he is at below the surface if water= 180- 112

The distance he is at below the surface if water= 68 feet

Now, he is at 68 feet below the surface of the Earth

Hence, the correct answer is 68 feet

Find the dimensions of the rectangular box with largest volume if the total surface area is given as 4 cm2. (Let x, y, and z be the dimensions of the rectangular box).

Answers

Dimensions of the rectangular box with largest volume if the total surface area is given as 4 cm² : (√2/3 , √2/3 ,√2/3)

Given, rectangular box with largest volume.

Let f(x , y , z) = xyz

Ф ≡ xy + yz + xz - 2  = 0

[tex]F =[/tex] [tex]f + \lambda[/tex][tex]\phi[/tex]

[tex]F = xyz + \lambda (xy + yz + xz - 2)[/tex]

[tex]F_x = 0\\yz + \lambda(y + z) = 0......1\\\\F_y = 0\\xz + \lambda(x+z)= 0......2\\\\F_z = 0\\xy + \lambda(x + y) = 0..........3[/tex]

xy + yz + xz - 2 = 0........4

Solving the above 4 equations,

[tex]yz + \lambda(y + z) = 0\\\lambda = -yz/(y+z)\\\\xz + \lambda(x + z) = 0\\\lambda = -xz / (x+z)[/tex]

Evaluating the lambda values,

x = y

Similarly, y = z

Therefore, x² + x² + x² - 2 = 0

x = √2/3

y = √2/3

z = √2/3

Hence, Dimensions : (x , y , z) = (√2/3 , √2/3 ,√2/3)

If the point (-2, -4) was reflected in the x-axis and then translates five units right and seven units down, what would be the coordinates of its image?

Answers

Answer:

(3,-3)

Step-by-step explanation:

First, plot the ordered pair (-2,-4). Since you're reflecting the ordered pair across the x-axis, change the -4 to a positive 4. Your new ordered pair should be (-2,4). The order pair when reflected across the x-axis is changing the positive or negative of the y value but keeping the x value the same(simple definition). Afterward, move/translate that reflected ordered pair across 5 units to the right which is (3,4). The last step is to translate that order pair 7 units down which will then give you your answer of (3, -3). I hope this helps you, I tried explaining it the best I could!

The coordinates of the image of the point (-2, -4) will be (3, -3).

What is translation of graph?

Function translation takes a function (and its graph) and, by adding and subtraction, moves the graph around the plane without changing its shape.

Given is a point (-2, -4) which is reflected along the x - axis.

Now, when a point is reflected across the x - axis, then its final coordinates will change according to the rule -

(x, y)  ↔  (x, -y)

The given coordinates are (-2, -4) which on being reflected across the x - axis will  become (-2, 4).

Now, it is given that after reflection, it is translated five units right and seven units down. We can define it by the rule -

(x, y) ↔ (x + 5, y - 7)

So the new coordinates of the image will be -

(-2, 4) ↔ (-2 + 5, 4 - 7) or (3, -3)

Therefore, the coordinates of the image of the point (-2, -4) will be (3, -3).
