The diameters of bolts produced in a machine shop are normally distributed with a mean of 5.65 millimeters and a standard deviat

ion of 0.07 millimeters. Find the two diameters that separate the top 4% and the bottom 4%. These diameters could serve as limits used to identify which bolts should be rejected. Round your answer to the nearest hundredth, if necessary.

Answer:

Two diameters that separate the top 4% and the bottom 4% are 5.77 and 5.53 respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that the diameters of bolts produced in a machine shop are normally distributed with a mean of 5.65 millimeters and a standard deviation of 0.07 millimeters.

<em>Let X = diameters of bolts produced in a machine shop</em>

So, X ~ N(\mu=5.65,\sigma^{2} = 0.07^{2})

The z score probability distribution is given by;

         Z = \frac{X-\mu}{\sigma} ~ N(0,1)

where, \mu = population mean

            \sigma = standard deviation

<u>Now, we have to find the two diameters that separate the top 4% and the bottom 4%.</u>

  • Firstly, Probability that the diameter separate the top 4% is given by;

        P(X > x) = 0.04

        P( \frac{X-\mu}{\sigma} > \frac{x-5.65}{0.07} ) = 0.04

        P(Z > \frac{x-5.65}{0.07} ) = 0.04

<em>So, the critical value of x in z table which separate the top 4% is given as 1.7507, which means;</em>

                 \frac{x-5.65}{0.07}  = 1.7507

              x-5.65 = 0.07 \times 1.7507

                         x = 5.65 + 0.122549 = 5.77

  • Secondly, Probability that the diameter separate the bottom 4% is given by;

        P(X < x) = 0.04

        P( \frac{X-\mu}{\sigma} < \frac{x-5.65}{0.07} ) = 0.04

        P(Z < \frac{x-5.65}{0.07} ) = 0.04

<em>So, the critical value of x in z table which separate the bottom 4% is given as -1.7507, which means;</em>

                 \frac{x-5.65}{0.07}  = -1.7507

              x-5.65 = 0.07 \times (-1.7507)

                         x = 5.65 - 0.122549 = 5.53

Therefore, the two diameters that separate the top 4% and the bottom 4% are 5.77 and 5.53 respectively.

Juliette [100K]
Jonah makes 85,740, which is at least 85,650 but less than 178,650, his tax is 28%. All you have to do is multiply 85,740 by 28% a.k.a .28 and you should get 24,007.2 which is Jonah’s income tax for the year.
