To evaluate the <span>probability that in a randomly selected hour the number of watches produced is greater than 500 we proceed as follows:
z=(x-</span>μ<span>)/</span>σ
where:
x=500
μ=500
σ=100
thus
z=(500-500)/200=0

Thus:
P(x>500)=1-P(x<500)=1-P(z<0)=1-0.5=0.5

Answer: 0.5~50%

Answer:  0.5

 

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :  The number of watches produced every hour is normally distributed with a mean of 500 and a standard deviation of 100.

i.e. \mu = 500\text{ and } \sigma= 100

Let x be the number of watches produced every hour.

Then, the probability that in a randomly selected hour the number of watches produced is greater than 500 will be :

P(x>500)=1-P(x\leq500)\\\\=1-P(\dfrac{x-\mu}{\sigma}\leq\dfrac{500-500}{100})\\\\=1-P(z\leq0)\ \ [\because\ z=\dfrac{x-\mu}{\sigma}]\\\\=1-0.5\ \ [\text{ By z-table}]\\\\=1-0.5=0.5

Hence, the probability that in a randomly selected hour the number of watches produced is greater than 500 =0.5.

Readme [11.4K]
David's score on his fifth test would be an 87. If you add up all the scores from his first to his fourth test, it would 363. However, since there are five tests, in order to get a 90 percent, the sum of all five test scores would be 450. 450 - 363 = 87.
