Molly was on a long 136 mile road trip. The first part of the trip there was lots of traffic, she only averaged 16 mph. The seco
nd part of the trip there was no traffic so she could drive 44 mph. If the trip took her 5 hours, how long did she travel at each speed? In traffic she drove for _____ hours After the traffic cleared she drove for ____ hours.
0.8413 = 84.13% probability that a bolt has a length greater than 2.96 cm.
Step-by-step explanation:
Normal Probability Distribution:
Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.
In a set with mean and standard deviation , the z-score of a measure X is given by:
The Z-score 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. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.
Mean of 3 cm and a standard deviation of 0.04 cm.
This means that
What is the probability that a bolt has a length greater than 2.96 cm?
This is 1 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 2.96. So
has a p-value of 0.1587.
1 - 0.1587 = 0.8413
0.8413 = 84.13% probability that a bolt has a length greater than 2.96 cm.
