The lifetime of a certain type of battery is normally distributed with mean value 12 hours and standard deviation 1 hour. there

are nine batteries in a package. what lifetime value is such that the total lifetime of all batteries in a package exceeds that value for only 5% of all packages? (round your answer to two decimal places.)

The probability that a normally distributed dataset with a mean, μ, and statndard deviation, σ, exceeds a value x, is given by

P(X\ \textgreater \ x)=1-P(X\ \textless \ x)=1-P\left(z\ \textless \  \frac{x-\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}} \right)

Given that t<span>he lifetime of a certain type of battery is normally distributed with mean value 12 hours and standard deviation 1 hour and that the probability that </span><span>nine batteries in a package exceeds a certain value, x, is </span>5% or 0.05. Then the value x is given by

P(X\ \textgreater \ x)=0.05 \\  \\ \Rightarrow1-P\left(z\ \textless \ \frac{x-12}{\frac{1}{\sqrt{9}}} \right)=0.05 \\  \\ \Rightarrow P\left(z\ \textless \ \frac{x-12}{\frac{1}{3}} \right)=1-0.05=0.95 \\  \\ \Rightarrow P(z\ \textless \ 3(x-12))=P(z\ \textless \ 1.645) \\  \\ \Rightarrow3(x-12)=1.645 \\  \\ \Rightarrow x-12= \frac{1.645}{3} =0.5483 \\  \\ \Rightarrow x=0.5483+12\approx12.55

Suppose a normal distribution has a mean of 50 and a standard deviation of 3. What is P(x≤53)?
Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the formula to find the z-score, then go to the table that will give you the probability that the value is less than this z-score.

z=\frac{53-50}{3}=1

The probability that the value lies to the left of 1 on a standard bell curve is 84.1345%, or 84%, the third choice down.

You can eat no more than 40 slices of pizza each week. If you have
Svet_ta [14]

Answer: 5.7 slices

Step-by-step explanation:

7x=40. x represents number of slices per day, 7 is because you eat pizza every day and there's 7 days in a week.

Divide both sides by 7:

7x/7 = 40/7

x= 5.7
