A manufacturer produces a commodity where the length of the commodity has approximately normal distribution with a mean of 6.5 i

nches and standard deviation of 0.5 inches. If a sample of 46 items are chosen at random, what is the probability the sample's mean length is greater than 6.3 inches? Round answer to four decimal places.

The probablity that the sample's mean length is greate than 6.3 inches is0.8446.

Given mean of 6.5 inches,standard deviation of 0.5 inches and sample size of 46.

We have to calculate the probability that the sample's mean length is greater than 6.3 inches is 0.8446.

Probability is the likeliness of happening an event. It lies between 0 and 1.

Probability is the number of items divided by the total number of items.

We have to use z statistic in this question because the sample size is greater than 30.

μ=6.5

σ=0.5

n=46

z=X-μ/σ

where μ is mean and

σ is standard deviation.

First we have to find the p value from 6.3 to 6.5 and then we have to add 0.5 to it to find the required probability.

z=6.3-6.5/0.5

=-0.2/0.5

=-0.4

p value from z table is 0.3446

Probability that the mean length is greater than 6.3inches is 0.3446+0.5=0.8446.

Hence the probability that the mean length is greater than 6.3 inches is 0.8446.

Answer:

The probability that a performance evaluation will include at least one plant outside the United States is 0.836.

Step-by-step explanation:

Total plants = 11

Domestic plants = 7

Outside the US plants = 4

Suppose X is the number of plants outside the US which are selected for the performance evaluation. We need to compute the probability that at least 1 out of the 4 plants selected are outside the United States i.e. P(X≥1). To compute this, we will use the binomial distribution formula:

P(X=x) = ⁿCₓ pˣ qⁿ⁻ˣ

where n = total no. of trials

           x = no. of successful trials

           p = probability of success

           q = probability of failure

Here we have n=4, p=4/11 and q=7/11

P(X≥1) = 1 - P(X<1)

          = 1 - P(X=0)

          = 1 - ⁴C₀ * (4/11)⁰ * (7/11)⁴⁻⁰

          = 1 - 0.16399

P(X≥1) = 0.836

The probability that a performance evaluation will include at least one plant outside the United States is 0.836.
