A recent article in the Cincinnati Enquirer reported that the mean labor cost to repair a heat pump is $90 with a standard devia

tion of $22. Monte’s Plumbing and Heating Service completed repairs on two heat pumps this morning. The labor cost for the first was $75 and it was $100 for the second. Assume the distribution of labor costs follows the normal probability distribution. Compute z values for each.

Answer:

z1= -0.6818

z2= 0.45

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean labor cost to repair the heat pump is μ= $90

standard deviation σ= $22

Labor cost for the first heat pump X_1= $75

labor cost for the second heat pump is X_2= $100

z value for the first heat pump

z_1= \frac{X_1-\mu}{\sigma}

⇒ z_1= \frac{75-90}{22}

= -0.6818

z value for the second heat pump

z_2= \frac{X_2-\mu}{\sigma}

⇒z_2= \frac{100-90}{22}

= 0.45

Answer:

Z value for the first  pump = -0.68

Z value for the second pump = 0.45

Step-by-step explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Mean labor cost to repair a heat pump = $90

Standard deviation = $22

Labor cost for the first, X₁ = $75

Labor cost for the Second, X₂ = $100

Now,

Z value for the first  pump = [X₁ - Mean] ÷ Standard deviation

thus,

Z value for the first  pump = [ $75 - $90] ÷ $22

= - 0.68

Z value for the second pump = [X₁ - Mean] ÷ Standard deviation

thus,

Z value for the second pump = [ $100 - $90] ÷ $22

= 0.45

Let the  be the time in hours, and  meters of fencing completed. 

We know that After three hours, they have 15 meters of fencing complete, our graph will go from the point (0,0) to the point (3,15). We also know that they decide to take a 2-hour break for lunch and then resume building the fence, so our graph will go from the point (3,15) to the the point (5,15). Finally, After four more hours, they have a fence that is a total of 55 meters long, so the final part of our graph will go from the point (5,15) to the point (9,55)


We can conclude that the graph of t vs y is:

Answer:

(9a^2b^2(2ab - 3b + 4a).

Step-by-step explanation:

Take out the GCF.

The GCF is 9a^2b^2 so the factors are

(9a^2b^2(2ab - 3b + 4a).

LekaFEV [45]

Answer:

£116.67

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

Nar donated to 4 charities last year. She gave £175 to each of these charities.

The total amount Nar donated is;

Nar = 4 × £175 = £700

For Rana to donate the same amount equally among 6 charity, to determine the amount each charity would receive this year, we need to divide the total amount by the number of charities;

A = £700/6

A = £116.67

We are given the following situation in the question:

"A statistics professor asked students in a class their ages. On the basis of this information, the professor states that the average age of all the students in the university is 21 years."

This is a n example of statistical Inference.

  • Statistical inference is the procedure of making inference or estimating parameters of a population with the help of test statistics.
  • In the given situation the university students are the population and the students of a particular class are sample.
  • The professor with the help of sample statistic (mean age of students in class) approximated the mean age of students in the university.
