The useful life of a radial tire is normally distributed with a mean of 30,000 miles and a standard deviation of 5000 miles. The

company makes 10,000 tires a month. What is the probability that if a radial tire is purchased at random, it will last
between 20,000 and 35,000 miles?

Answer:

  empirical rule: 81.5%

  table or calculator: 81.9%

Step-by-step explanation:

The lower limit of the life range of interest has a z-score of ...

  z = (x -μ)/σ = (20,000 -30,000)/5,000 = -2

The upper limit has a z-score of ...

  z = (35,000 -30,000)/5,000 = 1

<u>Empirical rule solution</u>

The empirical rule tells you that 95% of the distribution lies within 2 standard deviations of the mean, so (100% -95%)/2 = 2.5% lie below z = -2. It also tells you 68% lie within 1 standard deviation of the mean, so (100% -68%)/2 = 16% lie above z = 1.

The fraction that lies within -2 to 1 standard deviations of the means is thus ...

  (100% -2.5% -16%) = 81.5%

The probability the tire has a life in the desired range is about 81.5%.

__

<u>Calculator solution</u>

A probability calculator for the Normal distribution tells you that ...

  P(-2 < z < 1) ≈ 0.8185946

The probability the tire has a life in the desired range is about 81.9%.

A field has a length of 12 m and a diagonal of 13 m what is the width?
kvv77 [185]
Do Pythagorean Theorem because a rectangle divided in diagonals form right triangles
A^2+b^2=C^2
Plug in the correct numbers and solve
A and B can be switched around but C is always the longest diagonal side which is called the hypotenuse not the Adjacent sides that form a right angle
So with correct solving you should get 5.
