Answer:

Weights of at least 340.1 are in the highest 20%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

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 pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this problem, we have that:

\mu = 330, \sigma = 12

a. Highest 20 percent

At least X

100-20 = 80

So X is the 80th percentile, which is X when Z has a pvalue of 0.8. So X when Z = 0.842.

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

0.842 = \frac{X - 330}{12}

X - 330 = 12*0.842

X = 340.1

Weights of at least 340.1 are in the highest 20%.

Answer:

148.2

Step-by-step explanation:

LA= PH

P= 8.2+8.2+3.2+3.2=22.8 in

H= 6.5 in

PH= 22.8(6.5)= 148.2 in

Clark Heter is an industrial engineer at Lyons Products. He would like to determine whether there are more units produced on the
Alborosie

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the subscripts d and n represent day and night respectively

The null hypothesis is

H0 : μd ≥ μn

The alternative hypothesis is

H1 : μd < μn

it is a one-tailed and also a right left test because of the greater than symbol in the alternative hypothesis.

The decision rule is to reject H0: μd ≥ μn If 0.10 > p value

Since the population standard deviations are known, we would use the formula to determine the test statistic(z score)

z = (xd - xn)/√σd²/nd + σn²/nn

Where

xd and xn represents sample means for day and night respectively.

σd and σn represents population standard deviations for day and night respectively.

nd and nn represents number of samples

From the information given,

xd = 334

xn = 341

σd = 23

σ2 = 28

nd = 60

nn = 68

z = (334 - 341)/√23²/60 + 28²/68

= - 7/√20.34607843138

z = - 1.55

From the normal distribution table, the probability value corresponding to the z score is 0.061

Since the level of significance, 0.1 > 0.061, we would reject H0

Therefore, there is enough evidence to conclude that there are more units produced on the night shift than on the day shift.
