Times for a surgical procedure are normally distributed. There are two methods. Method A has a mean of 33 minutes and a standard

deviation of 8 minutes, while method B has a mean of 37 minutes and a standard deviation of 4.0 minutes. (a) Which procedure is preferred if the procedure must be completed within 34 minutes?

Answer:

Method A.

Step-by-step explanation:

For solving this question we need to find out the z-scores for both methods,

Since, the z-score formula is,

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

Where, \mu is mean,

\sigma is standard deviation,

Given,

For method A,

\mu = 33

\sigma=8

Thus, the z score for 34 is,

z_1=\frac{34-33}{8}=0.125

While, for method B,

\mu = 37

\sigma = 4

Thus, the z score for 34 is,

z_2=\frac{34-37}{4}=-0.75,

Since, z_1 > z_2

Hence, method A is preferred if the procedure must be completed within 34 minutes.

What is the probability that the system does not have a type 2defect?b.What is the probability that the system has both type 1 a
Lana71 [14]

Answer:

a.  0.93 b. 0.06 c. 0.05

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability is commonly known as the chance of success of a particular event. The probability of failure of the event can also be estimated.

(a) Probability of not having type 2 defect is: P(A_{2}^{'})  = 1 - P(A_{2}) = 1 - 0.07 = 0.93

(b) Probability of having type 1 and 2 defects is: P(A_{1} n A_{2}) = P(A_{1}) + P(A_{2}) - P(A_{1}U A_{2}) = 0.12 + 0.07 - 0.13 = 0.06

(c) probability pf having both type 1 and type 2 defects but not type 3 defect is:

P(A_{1} + A_{2} + A^{'} _{3}) = P(A_{1} n A_{2}) - P(A_{1} n A_{2} n A_{3}) = 0.06 - 0.01 = 0.05
