I agree with Gloria because Juan’s answer would be 3546.6. If you multiply any number by 10 it is moving to decimal 1 place to the right so as an example 354.06 multiplied by 10 would be 3540.6 because you moved the decimal to the right one number.

alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

$Z_{0.05}=1.645$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :In a recent questionnaire about food, a random sample of 970 adults were asked about whether they prefer eating fruits or vegetables, and 458 reported that they preferred eating vegetables.

To Find :What value of z should be used to calculate a confidence interval with a 95 % confidence level?

Solution:

Confidence level = 95 % i.e.0.95

So, significance level = 5% i.e. 0.05

So, the value of z corresponding to significance level 0.05 should be used to calculate a confidence interval with a 95 % confidence level

So, $Z_{0.05}=1.645$

Hence z should be 1.645 to calculate a confidence interval with a 95 % confidence level.

What number must we multiply by $-\frac23$ to get a product of $\frac34$?

stich3 [128]

Let x be unknown number. If number x is multiplied by $-\dfrac{2}{3}$ and the product is equal to $\dfrac{3}{4},$ then

$x\cdot \left(-\dfrac{2}{3}\right)=\dfrac{3}{4}.$

To find x you should divide $\dfrac{3}{4}$ by $-\dfrac{2}{3}:$

$x=\dfrac{\dfrac{3}{4}}{-\dfrac{2}{3}}=\dfrac{3}{4}\cdot \left(-\dfrac{3}{2}\right)=-\dfrac{3\cdot 3}{4\cdot 2}=-\dfrac{9}{8}.$

Answer: $x=-\dfrac{9}{8}$

Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

a

$P(X < 24 )= 21.186\%$

b

$x = 19.78 \ months$

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

The mean is $\mu = 26 \ months$

The standard deviation is $\sigma = 4 \ months$

Generally 2 year is equal to 24 months

Generally the percentage of total production will the company expect to replace is mathematically represented as

$P(X < 24 )= P(\frac{X - \mu }{ \sigma} < \frac{24 - 26}{4} )$

Generally $\frac{X - \mu}{\sigma } =Z (The \ standardized \ value \ of \ X )$

$P(X < 24 )= P(Z < -0.8 )$

Generally from the z-table

$P(Z < -0.8) = 0.21186$

So

$P(X < 24 )= 0.21186$

Converting to percentage

$P(X < 24 )= 0.21186 * 100$

=> $P(X < 24 )= 21.186\%$

Generally the duration that should be the guarantee period if Accrotime does not want to make refunds on more than 6% is mathematically evaluated as

$P(X < x) = P(\frac{X - \mu }{\sigma} < \frac{x - 26}{4} )= 0.06$

=> $P(X < x) = P(Z < \frac{x - 26}{4} )= 0.06$

From the normal distribution table the z-score for 0.06 at the lower tail is

$z = -1.555$

So

$\frac{x - 26}{4} = -1.555$

=> $x = 19.78 \ months$
