NeverReady batteries has engineered a newer, longer lasting AAA battery. The company claims this battery has an average life span of hours with a standard deviation of hours. Your statistics class questions this claim. As a class, you randomly select batteries and find that the sample mean life span is hours. If the process is working properly, what is the probability of getting a random sample of batteries in which the sample mean lifetime is hours or less? Is the company’s claim reasonable?
A manufacturer produces -pound lifting weights. The lowest actual weight is pounds, and the highest is pounds. Each weight is equally likely so the distribution of weights is uniform. A sample of weights is taken.
Find the probability that the mean actual weight for the weights is greater than .
The percent of fat calories that a person in America consumes each day is normally distributed with a mean of about and a standard deviation of about ten. Suppose that individuals are randomly chosen. Let role="math" localid="1648361500255" average percent of fat calories.
a. _____ (______, ______)
b. For the group of , find the probability that the average percent of fat calories consumed is more than five. Graph the situation and shade in the area to be determined.
c. Find the first quartile for the average percent of fat calories.
