Answer:
probability P = 0.32
Explanation:
this is incomplete question
i found complete A manufactures makes integrated circuits that each have a resistance layer with a target thickness of 200 units. A circuit won't work well if this thickness varies too much from the target value. These thickness measurements are approximately normally distributed with a mean of 200 units and a standard deviation of 12 units. A random sample of 17 measurements is selected for a quality inspection. We can assume that the measurements in the sample are independent. What is the probability that the mean thickness in these 16 measurements x is farther than 3 units away from the target value?
solution
we know that Standard error is expess as
Standard error =
Standard error =
Standard error = 3
so here we get Z value for 3 units away are from mean are
mean = -1 and + 1
so here
probability P will be
probability P = P( z < -1 or z > 1)
probability P = 0.1587 + 0.1587
probability P = 0.3174
probability P = 0.32
