Answer:

C) x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this, divide 2 from both sides to get x < 4.5. This means that x has to be less than 4.5. "x" as 4 is the only correct answer because 4 is less than 4.5.

Hope it helps and is correct!

The life of light bulbs is distributed normally. The standard deviation of the lifetime is 15 hours and the mean lifetime of a b

Answer:

0.8413 = 84.13% probability of a bulb lasting for at most 605 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Probability Distribution:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the z-score 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 p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

The standard deviation of the lifetime is 15 hours and the mean lifetime of a bulb is 590 hours.

This means that $\sigma = 15, \mu = 590$
