One division of a large defense contractor manufactures telecommunication equipment for the military. This division reports that

12% of non-electrical components are reworked. Management wants to determine if this percentage is the same as the percentage rework for the company’s electrical components. The Quality Control Department plans to check a random sample of the over 10,000 electrical components manufactured across all divisions. The 95% confidence interval based on this data is .0758 to .1339. Should management conclude that the percentage of rework for electrical components is lower than the rate of 12% for non-electrical components?

Answer:

We can not conclude that the percentage of rework for electrical components is lower than the rate of 12% for non-electrical components.

Step-by-step explanation:

The 95% confidence interval tells us that the true mean of the percentage of rework for electrical components is between 0.0758 (7.58%) and 0.1339 (13.39%), with a degree of confidence of 95%.

The value reported of 12% is included in this interval, so it is possible that the true mean for this value is 12%. In other words, we can not reject the hypothesis that the true percentge of rework is 12%.

Then, we can not conclude that the percentage of rework for electrical components is lower than the rate of 12% for non-electrical components.

Answer:

At the 95% confidence level, management should not conclude that the percentage of rework for electrical components is lower than the rate of 12% for non-electrical components, since the upper bound of the confidene interval, which is 0.1339, is higher than 0.12.

Step-by-step explanation:

To reach a conclusion, we have to observe the confidence interval.

Should management conclude that the percentage of rework for electrical components is lower than the rate of 12% for non-electrical components?

Is the upper bound of the confidence interval lower than 12% = 0.12?

If yes, it should conclude that this percentage is lower.

Otherwise, it cannot conclude.

Confidence interval:

0.0758 to 0.1339

0.1339 is higher than 0.12.

So.

At the 95% confidence level, management should not conclude that the percentage of rework for electrical components is lower than the rate of 12% for non-electrical components, since the upper bound of the confidene interval, which is 0.1339, is higher than 0.12.

Wanahton is cooking a breadstick on a rectangular baking sheet measuring 9\dfrac129
salantis [7]

<u><em>Answer:</em></u>

The longest bread stick is approximately 16 in

<u><em>Explanation:</em></u>

The diagram representing the tray is shown in the attached image

From the diagram, we can note that the diagonal of the tray represents the hypotenuse of a right-angled triangle having legs 9.5 in and 13 in

<u>Therefore, to get the length of the hypotenuse, we can use the Pythagorean equation which is as follows:</u>

c² = a² + b²

where c is the length of the hypotenuse and a and b are the length of the two legs

<u>Substitute with the givens in the above equation to get the length of the hypotenuse as follows:</u>

c² = (9.5)² + (13)² = 259.25

c = 16.1 in which is approximately 16 in

<u>From the above, we can conclude that:</u>

The longest bread stick that can be fit straight along the diagonal of the tray is approximately 16 in

Hope this helps :)

Find a matrix P such that PTAP orthogonally diagonalizes A. Verify that PTAP gives the proper diagonal form. (Enter each matrix
krok68 [10]

Answer:

the P matrix you are looking for is P=(1/\sqrt{2}) · [[1 1 0 0],[1 -1 0 0],[0 0 1 1],[0 0 1 -1]]

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

For an orthogonal diagonalization of any matrix you have to:

1º) Find the matrix eigenvalues in a set order.

2º) Find the eigenvectors of each respective eigenvalues.

Tip: You can write the matrix A like A = P^{t} D P

3º) D is the diagonal matrix with each eigenvalue (in order) in the diagonal.

4º) Write P as the normalized eigenvectors in order (in columns).

Tip 2: Remember, P^{t}·P = I, so if A = P^{t} D P, then:

P A P^{t} = P  P^{t} D P P^{t} = I D I = D

So the P we are looking for is the P^{t} of the diagonalization.

Tip 3: In this case, A is a block matrix with null nondiagonal submatrixes, therefore its eigenvalues can be calculated by using the diagonal submatrixes. The problem is reduced to calculate the eigenvalues of A₁₁ = A ₂₂ = [[5 3],[3 5]]

Solving:

1º)the eigenvalues of A₁₁ are {8,2}, therefore the D matrix is \left[\begin{array}{cccc}8&0&0&0\\0&2&0&0\\0&0&8&0\\0&0&0&2\end{array}\right]

2º) the eigenvectors of A₁₁ are P₈= {[1 1]T} P₂= {[1 -1]T}, therefore normalizing the eigenvectors you obtain P = (1/\sqrt{2}) · [[1 1 0 0],[1 -1 0 0],[0 0 1 1],[0 0 1 -1]] (you can see that P =  P^{t} in this case).

As said in "tip 2": P A P^{t} = P  P^{t} D P P^{t} = I D I = D

So the P obtained is the one you are looking for.

One serving of granola provides 4% of the protein you need daily. You must get the remaining 48 grams from other sources. How ma
e-lub [12.9K]
48 grams= 96% needed

x grams. = 4%

Set up a proportion

48/96 = x/4

96/24=4
48/24=2
x=2= grams in the granola

Add the value of 96% and the value of 4% to get the value of 100%

2+48=50

Final answer: 50 grams
