A NUMMI assembly line, which has been operating since , has built an average of cars and trucks a week. Generally, of the cars were defective coming off the assembly line. Suppose we draw a random sample of cars. Let represent the number of defective cars in the sample. What can we say about in regard to the 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.
Use the following information to answer the next two exercises: The life of Sunshine CD players is normally distributed with mean of 4.1 years and a standard deviation of 1.3 years. A CD player is guaranteed for three years. We are interested in the length of time a CD player lasts.
