3. A company manufactures square boards for the DIY trade. The length of side of each board is normally distributed with mean 1.5m and standard deviation 5mm, independently of all other boards. What is the probability that the area of a randomly chosen board will be less than 2.24m2? Find, approximately, the probability that among 60 such boards, more than 10% will have areas under 2.21m2
A quality control engineer is interested in the mean length of sheet insulation being cut automatically by machine. The desired length of the insulation is 12 metres. It is known that the standard deviation in the cutting length is 0.15 metres. A sample of 144 cut sheets yield a mean length of 12.14 metres. This sample will be used to obtain a 90% confidence interval for the mean length cut by machine. What are the two limits of the confidence...

1) a) A manufacturer knows that their items have a normally distributed length, with a mean of 13.4 inches, and standard deviation of 2 inches. If one item is chosen at random, what is the probability that it is less than 7.5 inches long? b) A manufacturer knows that their items lifespans are normally distributed with mean = 14.2 and standard deviation = 3.9. What proportion of the items' lifespans will be longer than 25 years? c) A particular fruit's...
QUESTION 3 10 p Suppose x, Y, and C represent the length, width, and perimeter of a flat rectangular sheet metal part. Note that X is a normal random variable having mean 35cm and standard deviation 3 cm, and Y is independent of X and normally distributed with a mean of 15 cm and a standard deviation of 4 cm. What is the probability that the perimeter is between 96 and 105 cm? ( Report answer to three decmal places....
Question 3: a.) A manufacturer knows that their items have a normally distributed length, with a mean of 19.6 inches, and standard deviation of 2.4 inches. If 4 items are chosen at random, what is the probability that their mean length is less than 17.5 inches? b.) A manufacturer knows that their items have a normally distributed lifespan, with a mean of 7.5 years, and standard deviation of 0.7 years. If you randomly purchase 14 items, what is the probability...
The income of trainees at a local mill are normally distributed with a mean of $1100 and a standard deviation of $150. What percentage of trainees earn less than $1200 a month?
The lengths of lumber a machine cuts are normally distributed with a mean of 104 inches and a standard deviation of 0.5 inch. (a) What is the probability that a randomly selected board cut by the machine has a length greater than 104.16 inches? (b) A sample of 41 boards is randomly selected. What is the probability that their mean length is greater than 104.16 inches?
