The tensile strength of a metal part is normally distributed with mean 40 pounds and standard deviation 5 pounds. If 50,000 part

s are produced, how many would you expect to fail to meet a minimum specification limit of 35-pounds tensile strength? How many would have a tensile strength in excess of 48 pounds?

Answer:

a) how many would you expect to fail to meet a minimum specification limit of 35-pounds tensile strength?

7933 parts

b) How many would have a tensile strength in excess of 48 pounds?

2739.95 parts

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for calculating a z-score is is z = (x-μ)/σ, where x is the raw score, μ is the population mean, and σ is the population standard deviation.

a) how many would you expect to fail to meet a minimum specification limit of 35-pounds tensile strength?

z = (x-μ)/σ

x = 35 μ = 40 , σ = 5

z = 35 - 40/5

= -5/-5

= -1

Determining the Probability value from Z-Table:

P(x<35) = 0.15866

Converting to percentage = 15.866%

We are asked how many will fail to meet this specification

We have 50,000 parts

Hence,

15.866% of 50,000 parts will fail to meet the specification

= 15.866% of 50,000

= 7933 parts

Therefore, 7933 parts will fail to meet the specifications.

b) How many would have a tensile strength in excess of 48 pounds?

z = (x-μ)/σ

x = 48 μ = 40 , σ = 5

z = 48 - 40/5

z = 8/5

z = 1.6

P-value from Z-Table:

P(x<48) = 0.9452

P(x>48) = 1 - P(x<48)

1 - 0.9452

= 0.054799

Converting to percentage

= 5.4799%

Therefore, 5.4799% will have an excess of (or will be greater than) 48 pounds

We are asked, how many would have a tensile strength in excess of 48 pounds?

This would be 5.4799% of 50,000 parts

= 5.4799% × 50,000

= 2739.95

Therefore, 2739.95 parts will have a tensile strength excess of 48 pounds

Janeile has 6 hours to spend training for an upcoming race. She completes her training by running full speed the distance of the
Flauer [41]

Answer:

running 1.5 hours

Walking 4.5 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the amount of time she spends on walking be x

d/3 + d/9 = 6            Multiply by 9

3d + d = 6*9

4d = 54                     Divide by 4

4d/4 = 54/4            

d = 13 2/4 = 13 1/2 = 13.5 miles

d/3 = 13.5/3 = 4.5 hours

d/9 = 13.5/<u>9 = 1.5 hours</u>

Total                6 hours

I hope this is the right interpretation.
