Question

The diameters of bolts produced in a machine shop are normally distributed with a mean of 5.8 millimeters and a standard deviation of 0.07 millimeters. Find the two diameters that separate the top 8% and the bottom 8%. These diameters could serve as limits used to identify which bolts should be rejected. Round your answer to the nearest hundredth, if necessary.

Answer 1

Answer:

5.70 < X < 5.89

Step-by-step explanation:

Z = ±1.40507156

z = (x - μ)/σ

1.40507156 = (x - 5.8)/.07

5.70 < X < 5.89
