A radio manufacturer believes that the length of life of WPPX model radio is normal with µ=12 years and σ=2.5 years. (a) What pe

kicyunya [14]

Answer:

(a) 5.48%

(b) 17.82 years

(c) 21.19%

(d) 15.21 years

Step-by-step explanation:

z = (x-μ)/σ,

where

x is the raw score

μ is the population mean

σ is the population standard deviation.

µ=12 years and σ=2.5 years.

(a) What percent of the radios will function for more than 16 years?

For x = 16

z = 16 - 12/2.5

z = 1.6

Probability value from Z-Table:

P(x<16) = 0.9452

P(x>16) = 1 - P(x<16)

1 - 0.9452

= 0.054799

Converting to percentage = 0.054799 × 100

= 5.4799%

Approximately = 5.48%

(b) Suppose the company decides to replace 1% of the radios. Find the length of the guarantee period. i.e. find X.

find the z score of the 99th percentile = 2.326

Hence:z = (x-μ)/σ

2.326 = x - 12/2.5

Cross Multiply

2.326 × 2.5 = x - 12

5.815 = x - 12

x = 12 + 5.815

x = 17.815

Approximately = 17.82 years

(c) What percent of the radios that will fail to satisfy the guarantee period of 10 years? , i.e. less than 10 years?

When x < 10

Hence,

z = 10 - 12/2.5

z = -0.8

Probability value from Z-Table:

P(x<10) = 0.21186

Converting to percentage

0.21186 × 100

= 21.186%

Approximately = 21.19%

(d) If 10% of the radios will function for more than X years, find X.

The z score would be : 100 - 10%

= 90th percentile z score

We find the z score of the 90th percentile = 1.282

Hence:z = (x-μ)/σ

1.282 = x - 12/2.5

Cross Multiply

1.282 × 2.5 = x - 12

3.205 = x - 12

x = 12 + 3.205

x = 15.205

Approximately = 15.21 years

iris [78.8K]

Answer:

x = 19.5

Step-by-step explanation:

-2x + 7 = -32 (subtract 7 on both sides)

-7 -7

-2x = -39 (Divide by -2)

x = 19.5

A courier service company wishes to estimate the proportion of people in various states that will use its services. Suppose the

Orlov [11]

Answer:

95.44% probability that the sample proportion will differ from the population proportion by less than 0.03.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.

Normal probability distribution

When the distribution is normal, we use 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.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$ .

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

For a proportion p in a sample of size n, the sampling distribution of the sample proportion will be approximately normal with mean $\mu = p$ and standard deviation $s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}$
