Let us assume the number to be = x
Then
(80/100) * x = 56
4x/5 = 56
4x = 56 * 5
4x = 280
x = 280/4
  = 70
The value of the unknown number is 70. I hope the procedure is clear enough for you to understand. You can always use this method for solving similar problems in future without requiring any help from outside. Only thing that needs to be taken care of is the calculation part.

If you would like to solve 56 is 80 percent of what number, you can calculate this using the following steps:

x = ? ... the number
80 percent of x is 56
80% * x = 56
80/100 * x = 56     /*100/80
x = 56 * 100 / 80
x = 70

The correct result would be 70.

The mean life span of a brand name tire is 50,000 miles. Assume that the life spans of the tires are normally distributed, and t
Vlada [557]

Answer:

a) P(X

b) P(\bar X>50200)=1-0.994=0.0062  

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean".  

Let X the random variable that represent the mean life span of a brand name tire, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

X \sim N(\mu=50000,\sigma=800)  

Part a

We want this probability:

P(X

The best way to solve this problem is using the normal standard distribution and the z score given by:

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

If we apply this formula to our probability we got this:

P(X

Part b

Let \bar X represent the sample mean, the distribution for the sample mean is given by:

\bar X \sim N(\mu,\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}})

On this case  \bar X \sim N(50000,\frac{800}{\sqrt{100}})

We want this probability:

P(\bar X>50200)=1-P(\bar X

The best way to solve this problem is using the normal standard distribution and the z score given by:

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

If we apply this formula to our probability we got this:

P(\bar X >50200)=1-P(Z

P(\bar X>50200)=1-0.994=0.0062
