The diameters of ball bearings are distributed normally. The mean diameter is 83 millimeters and the standard deviation is 3 mil

Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

0.2514 = 25.14% probability that the diameter of a selected bearing is greater than 85 millimeters.

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 question, we have that:

$\mu = 83, \sigma = 3$
