Answer:

0.1056 = 10.56% probability that the concentration exceeds 0.60

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 = 0.5, \sigma = 0.08

What is the probability that the concentration exceeds 0.60?

This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 0.6. So

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

Z = \frac{0.6 - 0.5}{0.08}

Z = 1.25

Z = 1.25 has a pvalue of 0.8944

1 - 0.8944 = 0.1056

0.1056 = 10.56% probability that the concentration exceeds 0.60

bagirrra123 [75]

Answer:

40320 ways

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Members = 8

Required

Number of ways they can be selected

Since, the order does not matter;

They can be selected in 8! ways

8! = 8 * 7 * 6 * 5 * 4 * 3 * 2 * 1

8! = 40320\ ways

<em>Hence, there are 40320 ways which the director can select them for the concert</em>
