A statistician at a metal manufacturing plant is sampling the thickness of metal plates. If an outlier occurs within a particula

r sample, the statistician must check the configuration of the machine. The distribution of metal thickness has mean 23.5 millimeters (mm) and standard deviation 1.4 mm. Based on the two-standard deviations rule for outliers, which is the greatest thickness that would require the statistician to check the configuration of the machine?

Answer: 26.3 mm

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the two-standard deviations rule for outliers, the values that does not lie within 2 standard deviations from mean are outliers.

If Mean = 23.5 millimeters (mm) and standard deviation =  1.4 mm

Then, greatest thickness need to check = mean + 2 (standard deviation)

= 23.5 + 2(1.4)

= 23.5 + 2.8

= 26.3 mm

hence, the greatest thickness that would require the statistician to check the configuration of the machine = 26.3 mm.

WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST AND 39 POINTS
Mashcka [7]

Part 1)
Sam is observing the velocity of a car at different times. After three hours, the velocity of the car is 51 km/h. After five hours, the velocity of the car is 59 km/h.

Part 1 a): Write an equation in two variables in the standard form that can be used to describe the velocity of the car at different times. Show your work and define the variables used

Let

A(3,51) B(5,59)

x------ > represent different times

y------ > represent the velocity of the car

Step 1

Find the slope AB

m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)------ > m=(59-51)/(5-3)------ > m=8/2---- > m=4

Step 2

With m=4 and point A(3,51) find the equation of the line

y-y1=m*-(x-x1)------ > y-51=4*(x-3)----- > y=4x-12+51----- > y=4x+39

we know that

The standard form of line equation is Ax + By = C

So

y=4x+39----- > y-4x=39------ > this is the standard form

the answer part 1 a) is

y-4x=39


Part 1 b) How can you graph the equation obtained in Part a) for the first six hours?

To graph the equation obtained in Part a) plot the point A and the point B
and join the points to draw the line


To obtain the velocity for the first six hours, substitute the value of x=6 hour in the equation

for x=6 hour

y-4x=39------ > y-4*6=39------ > y=39+24------ > y=63 km/h


using a graph tool

see the attached figure N 1


Part 2)

g(x)=1+1.5^x

step 1

find the equation of the line of f(x)

let

A(-5,3) B(-3,-1)

m=(-1-3)/(-3+5)----- > m=-4/2---- > m=-2

with m=-2 and point A

y-y1=m*(x-x1)------ > y-3=-2*(x+5)---- > y=-2x-10+3----- > y=-2x-7

so

f(x)=-2x-7

step 2

find the equation of the line of p(x)

let

C(0,2) D(-2,-3)

m=(-3-2)/(-2-0)----- > m=-5/-2---- > m=2.5

with m=2.5 and point C

y-y1=m*(x-x1)------ > y-2=2.5*(x-0)---- > y=2.5x+2

so

p(x)=2.5x+2

Part 2 a) What is the solution to the pair of equations represented by p(x) and f(x)?

We know that

The solution is the intersection of both graphs

Using a graph tool

See the attached figure N 2

The solution is the point (-2,-3)


Part 2 b) Write any two solutions for f(x).

f(x)=-2x-7


for x=0

f(0)=2*0-7---- > f(0)=-7

solution 1 is the point (0,-7)


for x=1

f(1)=2*1-7---- > f(1)=-5

solution 2 is the point (1,-5)


Part 2 c) What is the solution to the equation p(x) = g(x)?

We have

p(x)=2.5x+2

g(x)=1+1.5^x

We know that

The solution is the intersection of both graphs

Using a graph tool

See the attached figure N 3

The solution are the points (0,2) and (7.3,20.2)


Part 3
)

Part A:There are many system of inequalities that can be created such that only contain points D and E in the overlapping shaded regions.

Any system of inequalities which is satisfied by (-4, 2) and (-1, 5) but is not satisfied by (1, 3), (3, 1), (3, -3) and (-3, -3) can serve.

An example of such system of equation is

x < 0

y > 0

The system of equation above represent all the points in the second quadrant of the coordinate system.The area above the x-axis and to the left of the y-axis is shaded.

see the attached figure N 4

Part B:It can be verified that points D and E are solutions to the system of inequalities above by substituting the coordinates of points D and E into the system of equations and see whether they are true.

Substituting D(-4, 2) into the system

we have:

-4 < 0

2 > 0

as can be seen the two inequalities above are true, hence point D is a solution to the set of inequalities.

Also,

substituting E(-1, 5) into the system we have:

-1 < 0

5 > 0

as can be seen the two inequalities above are true, hence point E is a solution to the set of inequalities.

Part C:Given that chicken can only be raised in the area defined by y > 3x - 4.

To identify the farms in which chicken can be raised, we substitute the coordinates of the points A to F into the inequality defining chicken's area.

For point A(1, 3): 3 > 3(1) - 4 ⇒ 3 > 3 - 4 ⇒ 3 > -1 which is true

For point B(3, 1): 1 > 3(3) - 4 ⇒ 1 > 9 - 4 ⇒ 1 > 5 which is false

For point C(3, -3): -3 > 3(3) - 4 ⇒ -3 > 9 - 4 ⇒ -3 > 5 which is false

For point D(-4, 2): 2 > 3(-4) - 4; 2 > -12 - 4 ⇒ 2 > -16 which is true

For point E(-1, 5): 5 > 3(-1) - 4 ⇒ 5 > -3 - 4 ⇒ 5 > -7 which is true

For point F(-3, -3): -3 > 3(-3) - 4 ⇒ -3 > -9 - 4 ⇒ -3 > -13 which is true

Therefore,

the farms in which chicken can be raised are the farms at point A, D, E and F.

What is the measure (in degrees) of the smallest interior angle of a triangle in which the exterior angle measures have the rati
steposvetlana [31]

Let

3x----> angle exterior 1

4x----> angle exterior 2

5x----> angle exterior 3


we know that

The exterior angles of any polygon add up to 360 degrees

so

3x+4x+5x=360-------> 12x=360----------> x=30°


The largest of exterior angles is equal to the smallest of interior angles

so

the largest of exterior angles is 5x------> 5*30=150°

the smallest of interior angles is 180°-150°=30°


therefore


the answer is

the smallest of interior angle measure 30 degrees

Mr. jovanovski is having wood flooring
Mars2501 [29]

Answer:

By definition the area of a rectangle is:

A = l * w

Where,

l: long

w: width

So we have to clear the width:

w = A / l

Substituting the values:

w = (234) / (18) = 13

w = 13 feets

answer

the width, in feet, of the room is 13

Bernardo and Ogechi were asked to find an explicit formula for the sequence 1\,,\,8\,,\,64\,,\,512,...1,8,64,512,...1, comma, 8,
MatroZZZ [7]

Answer:

h_{n}=1.(8)^{n-1} will be the correct formula for the given sequence.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given sequence is 1, 8, 64, 512...........

The given sequence is a geometric sequence having a common ratio (r) of

r = \frac{\text{Second term}}{\text{First term}}

r = \frac{8}{1}=8

Since explicit formula of a geometric sequence is given by

T_{n}=a(r)^{n-1}

where T_{n} = nth term of the sequence

a = first term of the sequence

r = common ratio of the successive term to the previous term

Now we plug values of a and r in the formula to get the explicit formula for the given sequence.

T_{n}=1.(8)^{n-1}

Therefore, if Bernardo is saying that the formula of the sequence is

h(n) = 1.(8)^{n-1} then he is correct.
