Suppose that the weights of a certain type of bear are normally distributed with mean 335 lbs and standard deviation 24 lbs. If three such bears are randomly selected, find the probability that exactly one of them has a weight that is less than 359 lbs. answer to 4 decimal places. |
Solution :
Given that,
mean =
= 335
standard deviation =
= 24
P(X<359 ) = P[(X-
) /
< (359-335) /24 ]
= P(z <1 )
Using z table
probability = 0.8413

The weights of a certain brand of candies are normally distributed with a mean weight of 0.8604 g and a standard deviation of 0.052 g. A sample of these candies came from a package containing 459 candies, and the package label stated that the net weight is 391.99. (If every package has 459 candies, the moon weight of the candies 391.9 must exceed 250 =0.8539 g for the net contents to weigh at least 391.99.) a. If 1 candy is...
7. The weights of a certain brand of candies are normally distributed with a mean weight of 0.8551 g and a standard deviation of 0.0521 g. A sample of these candies came from a package containing 446 candies, and the package label stated that the net weight is 380.7 g. (If every package has 446 candies, the mean weight of the candies must exceed 308.7/446 = 0.8536 g for the net contents to weigh at least 380.7 g.) b. If...
