Suppose that it is known that the number of items produced in a factory during a week is a random variable with mean 50. If the

variance of a weekâs production is known to equal 24, then what can be said about the probability that this weekâs production will be between 40 and 60?

Answer:

The probability would be 0.9586

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Mean, \mu = 50,

Variance, \sigma^2 = 24

Standard deviation,

\sigma = \sqrt{24}=2\sqrt{6},

If X represents the number of items produced in a factory during a week.

Hence, the probability that this weeks production will be between 40 and 60

=P(40 < X < 60)

=P(\frac{40-\mu}{\sigma} < \frac{X-\mu}{\sigma} < \frac{60-\mu}{\sigma})

=P(\frac{40-50}{2\sqrt{6}} < z < \frac{60-50}{2\sqrt{6}})

=P(-\frac{10}{2\sqrt{6}} < z < \frac{10}{2\sqrt{6}})

=P(-2.041 < z < 2.041)

=P(z< 2.041) - P(z< -2.041)

Using z score table

= 0.9793 - 0.0207

= 0.9586

marin [14]

Answer:

he makes $8 an hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Since he makes $480 over 4 weeks you divide that by 4 and you should get 120. So that means he makes $120 in one week and since he works 15 hours a week you divide 120 by 15 and you should get 8
