What is the operating cost for the lowest 6 percent of the airplanes? Answer by stanbon(75887) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Assume that the mean hourly cost to operate a commercial airplane follows the normal distribution with a mean of $2,400 per hour and a standard deviation of $220.
What is the operating cost for the lowest 6 percent of the airplanes?
----
Find the z-value with a left tail of 6%.
invNorm(0.06) = -1.5548
-----
Find the corresponding cost:
x = z*s + u
x = -1.5548*220 + 2400
--
x = $2057.95
