Answer:

They should guarantee the lifetime of their batteries for 32 months.

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.

Mean of 36 months and a standard deviation of 2 months.

This means that \mu = 36, \sigma = 2

If the company wants to replace no more than 2% of all batteries, for how many months should they guarantee the lifetime of their batteries?

The guarantee should be the 2th percentile of lengths, which is X when Z has a pvalue of 0.02. So X when Z = -2.054.

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

-2.054 = \frac{X - 36}{2}

X - 36 = -2.054*2

X = 31.89

Rounding to the closest month, 32.

They should guarantee the lifetime of their batteries for 32 months.

Find the volume of a cylinder with a radius of 3 meters and a height of 13 meters. Use 3.14 The volume of the cylinder is Type a
zvonat [6]
<h2><u>Question</u>:-</h2>

Find the volume of a cylinder with a radius of 3 meters and a height of 13 meters.

<h2><u>Answer</u>:-</h2>

<h3>Given:-</h3>

\bullet Radius (r) of a cylinder = 3 meters.

\bullet Height (h) of a cylinder = 13 meters.

<h3>To Find:-</h3>

The volume of a cylinder.

<h2>Solution:-</h2>

We know,

Formula of Volume of a cylinder is πr²h.

So, Volume of a cylinder = 3.14 × (3)² × 13

Volume of a cylinder = 3.14 × 3 × 3 × 13

Volume of a cylinder = 367.38 cubic meters.

<h3>The volume of a cylinder is <u>3</u><u>6</u><u>7</u><u>.</u><u>3</u><u>8</u><u> </u><u>cubic </u><u>meters</u>. [Answer]</h3>
