Slader records show that the average life expectancy of a pair of shoes is 2.2 years with astandard deviation of 1.7 years. a manufacturer gaurantees that shoes lasting less than a year are replaced for free. for every 1000 pairs sold how many pairs should the manufacturer expect to replaces free? assume a normal distributiom.

For every 1000 pairs sold, the manufacturer expect to replace 239 pairs for free.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Mean (μ) = 2.2, Standard deviation(S.D) (σ) = 1.7 years and x = 1 (1 year)

Let's find the Z score.

Z =

Now plug in the given values in the above formula, we get

Z =

Now we have to use the z-score table.

The z-score for 0.71 is 0.2611

Since it z is negative, so we subtract 0.2611 from 0.5000

0.5000 - 0.2611 = 0.2389

Percentage = 0.2389 × 100 = 23.89%

To find replaces for 1000 pairs, we need to multiply 23.89% by 1000

=

= 239

The cannot be in decimal, when we round off to the nearest whole, we get

239

a.   we have two

lines:   y = 4-x   and  

y = 8-x^-1

given two simultaneous equations that are both to be

true, then the solution is the points where the lines cross. the intersection is

where the two equations are equal. therefore the solution that works for both

equations is when

4-x = 8-x^-1

this is where the two lines will cross and that is the

common point that satisfies both equations.

b.   4-x = 8-x^-1

  x           4-x       8-x^-1

-3           7        

8.33

-2           6         8.5

-1           5         9

  0           4        

-

  1           3        

7

  2           2        

7.5

  3           1         7.67

the table shows that none of the x values from -3 to 3 is

the solution because in no case does

4-x = 8-x^-1

to find the solution we need to rearrange the equation to

find for x:

4-x = 8-x^-1

multiply both sides with x:

4x-x^2 = 8x-1

x^2+4x-1=0

x= -4.236, 0.236

therefore there are two points that satisfies the

equation.

find y:  

x=-4.236

y = 4-x   = 4 – (-4.236)

= 8.236

y = 8-x^-1 =   .236)^-1

= 8.236

x=0.236

  y = 4-x   = 4 – (0.236) = 3.764

y = 8-x^-1 =   8-(0.236)^-1

= 3.764

thus the two lines cross at 2 points:

(-4.236, 8.236) & (0.236, 3.764)

c.   to solve

graphically the equation 4-x = 8-x^-1

we would graph both lines: y = 4-x   and   y

= 8-x^-1

the point on the graph where the lines cross is the

solution to the system of equations.

just graph the points on part b on a cartesian coordinate

system and extend the two lines.   the

solution is, as stated, the point where the two lines cross on the graph.
