Question 1106623:
2) A company produces light bulbs with an average product life of 1000 hours and a standard deviation of 100 hours. Assume a normal distribution and answer the following:
a- What percentage of light bulbs produced are expected to last longer than 1000 hours, i.e. P(x > 1000)? Express your answer in decimals.
b- What percentage of light bulbs produced are expected to last shorter than 800 hours, i.e. P(x < 800)? Express your answer in decimals.
c- What percentage of light bulbs produced are expected to last between 700 and 800 hours, i.e. P(700 < x < 800)? Express your answer in decimals.
d- What percentage of light bulbs produced are expected to last between 1200 and 1300 hours, i.e. P(1200 > x > 1300)? Express your answer in decimals.
Answer by Boreal(15235)   (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Longer than 1000 hours is 50% or 0.5
fewer than 800 hours is a z < 2 or prob or 0.0228
between 700 and 800 is -3 < z <-2 or prob 0.0214; the next one is the same except the z values are between 2 and 3.
