SOLUTION:

Let area of a rectangle = A = 172.8cm^2

Let length of rectangle = L = ?

Let width of rectangle = W = 12.8cm

A = LW

172.8 = 12.8L

L = 172.8 / 12.8

L = 13.5

FINAL ANSWER:

Therefore, the length of the rectangle is 13.5cm.

Hope this helps! :)
Have a lovely day! <3

A certain plant runs three shifts per day. Of all the items produced by the plant, 50% of them are produced on the first shift,

Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

0.2941 = 29.41% probability that it was manufactured during the first shift.

Step-by-step explanation:

Conditional Probability

We use the conditional probability formula to solve this question. It is

$P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)}$

In which

P(B|A) is the probability of event B happening, given that A happened.

$P(A \cap B)$ is the probability of both A and B happening.

P(A) is the probability of A happening.

In this question:

Event A: Defective

Event B: Manufactured during the first shift.

Probability of a defective item:

1% of 50%(first shift)

2% of 30%(second shift)

3% of 20%(third shift).

So

$P(A) = 0.01*0.5 + 0.02*0.3 + 0.03*0.2 = 0.017$

Probability of a defective item being produced on the first shift:

1% of 50%. So

$P(A \cap B) = 0.01*0.5 = 0.005$

What is the probability that it was manufactured during the first shift?

$P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)} = \frac{0.005}{0.017} = 0.2941$

0.2941 = 29.41% probability that it was manufactured during the first shift.

Use technology or a z-score table to answer the question.

Alik [6]

Answer:

The second choice: Approximately $65.2\%$ of the pretzel bags here will contain between 225 and 245 pretzels.

Step-by-step explanation:

This explanation uses a z-score table where each $z$ entry has two decimal places.

Let $\mu$ represent the mean of a normal distribution of variable $X$ . Let $\sigma$ be the standard deviation of the distribution. The z-score for the observation $x$ would be:

$\displaystyle z = \frac{x - \mu}{\sigma}$ .

In this question,

$\mu = 240$ .
$\sigma = 9.3$ .

Calculate the z-score for $x_1 = 225$ and $x_2 = 245$ . Keep in mind that each entry in the z-score table here has two decimal places. Hence, round the results below so that each contains at least two decimal places.

$\begin{aligned} z_1 &= \frac{x_1 - \mu}{\sigma} \\ &= \frac{225 - 240}{9.3} \approx -1.61\end{aligned}$ .

$\begin{aligned} z_2 &= \frac{x_2 - \mu}{\sigma} \\ &= \frac{245 - 240}{9.3} \approx 0.54\end{aligned}$ .

The question is asking for the probability $P(225 \le X \le 245)$ (where $X$ is between two values.) In this case, that's the same as $P(-1.61 \le Z \le 0.54)$ .

Keep in mind that the probabilities on many z-table correspond to probability of $P(Z \le z)$ (where $Z$ is no greater than one value.) Therefore, apply the identity $P(z_1 \le Z \le z_2) = P(Z \le z_2) - P(Z \le z_1)$ to rewrite $P(-1.61 \le Z \le 0.54)$ as the difference between two probabilities:

$P(-1.61 \le Z \le 0.54) = P(Z \le 0.54) - P(Z \le -1.61)$ .

Look up the z-table for $P(Z \le 0.54)$ and $P(Z \le -1.61)$ :

$P(Z \le 0.54)\approx 0.70540$ .
$P(Z \le -1.61) \approx 0.05370$ .

$\begin{aligned}& P(225 \le X \le 245) \\ &= P\left(\frac{225 - 240}{9.3} \le Z \le \frac{245 - 240}{9.3}\right)\\&\approx P(-1.61 \le Z \le 0.54) \\ &= P(Z \le 0.54) - P(Z \le -1.61)\\ &\approx 0.70540 - 0.05370 \\& \approx 0.65.2 \\ &= 65.2\% \end{aligned}$ .
