Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we are interested in calculating the z-score of a company employee.

Mathematically;

z-score = (x- mean)/SD

where in this case;

x is the value given which turns out to be the annual salary of the employee = 28,000

Mean = 34,000

standard deviation = 4,000

Plugging these values into the equation above, we have;

z-score = (28000-34000)/4000 = -6000/4000 = -1.5

A certain type of plywood consists of six layers. The thickness of the layers are independent and normally distributed with mean
Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer:

a.) The mean of the six layered plywood is 30 mm

    The standard deviation is 0.49 mm

b.) That the thickness is less than 28 mm has a probability of 0.000022.

Step-by-step explanation:

There are six layers in a plywood that is considered. It is also given that the layers are independent and normally distributed.

The thickness of the layers of the plywood have a mean, \mu = 5 mm

and a standard deviation, \sigma = 0.2 mm.

a.) Therefore the mean of the six layered plywood is = 6\mu

                                                                                   = 6 × 5 mmm

                                                                                   = 30 mm

 The standard deviation of the six layered plywood = \sqrt{6 \sigma^{2} } = \sqrt{6 \times (0.2)^2} = 0.49 mm

b.) We are given to find that the probability of the plywood is less than 28 mm thick.

   P( thickness < 28 mm)

   P( Z < \frac{(28 - 30)}{0.49})       =  P(Z < (\frac{-2}{0.49} ))        ⇒       P( Z < -4.082) = 0.000022

Jim's work evaluating 2 (three-fifths) cubed is shown below. 2 (three-fifths) cubed = 2 (StartFraction 3 cubed Over 5 EndFractio
Blizzard [7]

Answer:

2(\frac{3}{5}) ^{3}=2(\frac{3^3}{5^3}) and not 2(\frac{3}{5}) ^{3}=2(\frac{3^3}{5})

Step-by-step explanation:

Jim's work evaluating 2(\frac{3}{5}) ^{3} is shown:

2(\frac{3}{5}) ^{3}=2(\frac{3^3}{5})=2(\frac{3X3X3}{5})=2(\frac{27}{5})=\frac{54}{5}

If you look at the Second step, the exponent is taken over only the numerator. It should have been taken over both the numerator and denominator as shown below.

2(\frac{3}{5}) ^{3}=2(\frac{3^3}{5^3})

The correct workings therefore is:

2(\frac{3}{5}) ^{3}=2(\frac{3^3}{5^3})=2(\frac{3X3X3}{5X5X5})=2(\frac{27}{125})=\frac{54}{125}

Workers at a particular mining site receive an average of 35 days paid vacation, which is lower than the national average. The m
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

The average of paid time off is the sum of the paid time off (T) of each employee divided by the number of employees(n):

av = (∑T)/n

Thus, av is directly proportional to the sum of T and indirectly proportional to n. It means that if T raises, the average raises too. So, the manager must fire the employees who have the least number of days off, so T will increase.

A print shop makes bumper stickers for election campaigns. If x stickers are ordered (where x &lt; 10,000), then the price per s
Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer:

P(x) = (0.049x - 0.0000015x²)

Step-by-step explanation:

price per sticker is 0.14 − 0.000002x dollars

total cost of producing the order is 0.091x − 0.0000005x² dollars.

P(x) = profit = Revenue - Cost

Let the number of units of stickers made be x

Revenue = (price per sticker) × (total units sold) = (0.14 − 0.000002x) × (x)

= (0.14x - 0.000002x²) dollars.

Cost of producing x units in the order = (0.091x − 0.0000005x²)

P(x) = 0.14x - 0.000002x² - (0.091x − 0.0000005x²) = 0.14x - 0.091x - 0.000002x² + 0.0000005x²

= (0.049x - 0.0000015x²)

P(x) = (0.049x - 0.0000015x²)

Hope this Helps!!!
