Chapter 6: Q 16 (page 385)

Suppose X ~ N(8, 1). What value of x has a z-score of 鈥�2.25?

Short Answer

Expert verified

The value of xis5.75

Step by step solution

01

Given Information

Given that, z=-2.25. And,

X~N(8,1)Where,

渭=8

蟽=1

We have to find the value ofx

02

Explanation

The value ofz-score can be calculated as below:

z=x-渭蟽

Put the provided values in the above expression. Then,

-2.25=x-81

x-8=-2.25脳1

x=-2.25+8

x=5.75

A NUMMI assembly line, which has been operating since 1984, has built an average of 6,000 cars and trucks a week. Generally, 10% of the cars were defective coming off the assembly line. Suppose we draw a random sample of n=100 cars. Let X represent the number of defective cars in the sample. What can we say about X in regard to the 68-95-99.7 empirical rule (one standard deviation, two standard deviations and three standard deviations from the mean are being referred to)? Assume a normal distribution for the defective cars in the sample.

Suppose a normal distribution has a mean of six and a standard deviation of 1.5. What is the z-score of x = 5.5?
