A credit card company receives numerous phone calls throughout the day from customers reporting fraud and billing disputes. Most of these callers are put “on hold” until a company operator is free to help them. The company has determined that the length of time a caller is on hold is normally distributed with a mean of 2.5 minutes and a standard deviation 0.5 minutes. If 1.5% of the callers are put on hold for longer than x minutes, what is the value of x?

Answers

Answer 1

Using the normal distribution, it is found that the value of x is of 3.585.

Normal Probability Distribution

In a normal distribution with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score of a measure X is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

It measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score, which is the percentile of X

In this problem, the mean and the standard deviation are given, respectively, by [tex]\mu = 2.5, \sigma = 0.5[/tex].

The value of x is the 100 - 1.5 = 98.5th percentile, which is X when Z = 2.17, hence:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]2.17 = \frac{X - 2.5}{0.5}[/tex]

[tex]X - 2.5 = 0.5(2.17)[/tex]

[tex]X = 3.585[/tex]

Hence the value of x is of 3.585.

8 x 10 : digit 8 is in the tens place

8 x 1/100 : digit 8 is in the hundredths place which means it is the second number after the decimal

Answers

Answer:

in the first one: BMC is equilateral triangle, because BM divides AC into equal sections, and because of that MC is 3.5 so it equals to BC.

Since angle BMC is 60° (because the triangle is equilateral), angle AMC will be 120°.

Since angle A + angle C should be 90°, if amgle C is 60°, then angle A will be 30.

In triangle AMB, angle ABM will be 30° (180°-120°(angle AMB) - 30°(angle BAM)).

As we calulated, angle A is 30° and angle ABM is 30° too, that means in BAM triangle AM=BM.

If csc a = -5square root 6 /12 and cos a >0, find cot a

Answers

The measure of cot(a) given that csc(a) = -5√6/12 is -1/4√61.5

Trigonometry identity

Given the following trigonometry function as shown below:

csc(a) = -5√6/12

Since csc(a) = 1/sin(a)

sin(a) = -12/5√6
sin(a) = -12√6/30 = -4√6/15 = opp/hyp

Determine the measure of cos(a)

adj^2 = (-4√6)^2+15^2
adj^2 = 144+225
adj = √369

cot(a) = cos(a)/sin(a)

cot(a) = √369/15 * 15/ -4√6
cot(a) = -1/4√61.5

Hence the measure of cot(a) given that csc(a) = -5√6/12 is -1/4√61.5

In the figure below, L is parallel to M. Find X

Answers

Answer:

Let's first try to find the angle supplementary to measure 141°.

(Supplementary angles are two angles that add up together to equal 180°).

Set up an equation;

141 + x(unknown angle measure) = 180°

Solve for x:-

141 + x = 180

-141        -141

x = 39°.

Now that we've found one of the interior angles measure to this triangle, we will use this value to figure out the angle measure next to 'x'.

If we think of the line (highlighted in the picture I attached to this), extended, we can kind of make out of this line as a transversal cutting into the two parallel lines(L & M).

Furthermore, the measured angle 39°, is an alternate interior angle with the missing angle next to 'x'(highlighted with yellow in my picture).

And, alternate interior angles are congruent(meaning they measure the same degree).

Therefore, we can infer that the missing angle next to 'x' is also 39°.

Now that we've found one angle measure and another angle(given) next to x, we can see that angle x and those two angle measures (48° and 39°) combined are supplementary!

So now that we know that angles 48° and 39° are supplementary with x, we can find the value of x by finding it's supplement value!

Arrange an equation;

(48 + 39) + x = 180°

Simplify and solve for x:-

87 + x = 180

-87        -87

x = 93°, hence ∠X = 93°.

Estimate the square root to the nearest (a) integer and (b) tenth.

46−−√

Answers

Using rounding concepts, it is found that the estimates of the square root of 46 are given as follows:

a) Rounded to the nearest integer, the square root of 46 is of 7.

b) Rounded to the nearest tenth, the square root of 46 is of 6.8.

How we round a number?

To round a number to the nearest integer, we have to look at the tenths digit.To round a number to the nearest tenth, we have to look at the hundredths digit.If the digit we look is of 5 or greater, we round one to the rounded digit.

Using a calculator, we have that the square root of 46 is of 6.78.

7 > 5, hence rounded to the nearest integer, the square root of 46 is of 7.8 > 5, hence rounded to the nearest tenth, the square root of 46 is of 6.8.

What is the Equation of a Line in Slope-intercept Form?

The equation in slope-intercept form of a line, is y = mx + b, where:

b = y-intercept

m = slope = change in y/change in x.

Given a line with slope = 2 and passes through (-3, 3), plug in m = 2 and (a, b) = (-3, 3) into y - b = m(x - a) to write the equation of the line

y - 3 = 2(x - (-3))

Rewrite in slope-intercept form

y - 3 = 2x + 6

y = 2x + 6 - 3

y = 2x + 3

What does 45 represent in the function? < B. What does 80 represent in the function? > C. Find h if f(h) = 215. What does this value of h mean in the context of the problem? <​

Answers

The function f(h) = 45h + 80  of the computer repair is a linear function

45 represents the hourly rate80 represents the base costThe value of h means 3 hours

What 45 and 80 represents?

A linear function is represented as:

f(h) = mh + c

Where:

m represents the rate; m = 45b represents the base cost or y-intercept; y = 80

By comparison;

45 represents the hourly rate and 80 represents the base cost

How to calculate h?

We have:

f(h) = 45h + 80  

When f(h) = 215, the function becomes

45h + 80 = 215

Subtract 80 from both sides

45h = 135

Divide both sides by 45

h = 3

Hence, the value of h means 3 hours
