Question

Endure all, a manufacturer of batteries claims that the lifetime of their batteries is normally distributed with a mean of 500 hours and a standard deviation of 40 hours. What is the probability that an endure all battery selected at random will last more than 550 hours?.

Answer 1

Based on the z-score, an Endure All battery selected at random has a 10.56% chance of lasting more than 550 hours.

What are z-scores?

How closely a value relates to the mean of a set of values is expressed by a Z-score.

The Z-score is created using standard deviations from the mean.

A data point's total value is equal to the mean value when the Z-score of the data point is equal to 0.

So, in order to determine how far the raw score deviates from the mean, the Z score is used.

The following steps are used to determine the Z score:

z = (x - μ)/σ

We know that:  x > 550 and μ = 500, σ = 40

z = 550 - 500 / 40

z = 1.25

The graph of the normal distribution indicates:

P(z > 1.25) = 1 - P(z < 1.25)

P(z > 1.25) = 1 - 0.8944

P(z > 1.25) = 0.1056

Therefore, based on the z-score, an Endure All battery selected at random has a 10.56% chance of lasting more than 550 hours.
