Answer:
4.75% probability that the line pressure will exceed 1000 kPa during any measurement
Step-by-step explanation:
Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.
In a set with mean and standard deviation
, the zscore of a measure X is given by:
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:
What is the probability that the line pressure will exceed 1000 kPa during any measurement
This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 1000. So
has a pvalue of 0.9525
1 - 0.9525 = 0.0475
4.75% probability that the line pressure will exceed 1000 kPa during any measurement
Answer:
1.) .399
2.) {.369, .429}
Step-by-step explanation:
The proportion of criminals in this sample that were caught was =.39944, .399 rounded to three decimal places.
To construct the confidence interval, you need three pieces of information: the statistic, the critical value, and the standard error.
The statistic is given in the first part of the problem with the proportion of criminals in the sample that were caught was .399.
The critical value, we are told, is the z equivalent of 90%, or 1.645. You can find this value using a z table or with the inverse normal function on a calculator.
Finally, we need the standard error. The formula for standard error for a proportion with a single population is so in this situation it would be
=.0183.
The confidence interval would be .399±.018×1.645 or .399±.030 {.369, .429}
