Step by step solution

01

Define constant

A constant is a single number or a letter such as a, b, or c that stands for a fixed number.

02

Explanation

(a)We must find \({\rm{c}}\) in such a way that

\(\phi {\rm{(c) = 0}}{\rm{.9838}}\)

For all \({\rm{z}}\), we examine Appendix Table \({\rm{A}}{\rm{.3}}\) to see if \(\phi {\rm{(z)}}\) equals \({\rm{0}}{\rm{.9838}}\). At the junction of the marked \({\rm{2}}{\rm{.1}}\) row and the indicated \({\rm{.04}}\) column As, a result, the number there is \({\rm{0}}{\rm{.9838}}\).

\({\rm{c = 2}}{\rm{.14}}\)

Therefore, the value is \({\rm{2}}{\rm{.14}}\).

03

Explanation

(b)It's the area above the interval with the left endpoint of \({\rm{0}}\) and the right endpoint of \({\rm{c}}\) under the standard normal curve. Thus

\({\rm{P(0}} \le {\rm{Z}} \le {\rm{c) = }}\phi {\rm{(c) - }}\phi {\rm{(0)}}\)

To find \(\phi {\rm{(0)}}\), look in Appendix Table \({\rm{A}}{\rm{.3}}\) at the intersection of the \({\rm{0}}{\rm{.0}}\) row and the \({\rm{.00}}\) column. There's a \({\rm{0}}{\rm{.5}}\) there, so

\(\phi {\rm{(0) = 0}}{\rm{.5}}\)

Then we'll be able to write:

\(\begin{array}{c}{\rm{P(0}} \le {\rm{Z}} \le {\rm{c) = }}\phi {\rm{(c) - }}\phi {\rm{(0)}}\\{\rm{0}}{\rm{.291 = }}\phi {\rm{(c) - 0}}{\rm{.5}}\\{\rm{phi(c) = 0}}{\rm{.291 + 0}}{\rm{.5}}\\\phi {\rm{(c) = 0}}{\rm{.791}}\end{array}\)

For all \({\rm{z}}\), we examine Appendix Table \({\rm{A}}{\rm{.3}}\) to see if \(\phi {\rm{(z)}}\) equals \({\rm{0}}{\rm{.791}}\). At the point where the \({\rm{0}}{\rm{.8}}\) row and the column cross \({\rm{.01}}\). As a result, the number there is \({\rm{0}}{\rm{.791}}\). Hence,

\({\rm{c = 0}}{\rm{.81}}\)

If \({\rm{Z}}\) is a continuous \({\rm{rv}}\) with cdf, then the following proposition is \(\phi {\rm{(z)}}\). Then, using \({\rm{a < b}}\), for any two numbers \({\rm{a}}\) and \({\rm{b}}\),

\({\rm{P(a}} \le {\rm{Z}} \le {\rm{b) = }}\phi {\rm{(b) - }}\phi {\rm{(a)}}\)

Therefore, the value is \({\rm{0}}{\rm{.81}}\).

04

Explanation

(c)It is the area to the right of \({\rm{c}}\) under the \({\rm{z}}\) curve.

\(\begin{array}{c}{\rm{P(c}} \le {\rm{Z) = 1 - }}\phi {\rm{(c)}}\\{\rm{0}}{\rm{.121 = 1 - }}\phi {\rm{(c)}}\\\phi {\rm{(c) = 1 - 0}}{\rm{.121}}\\\phi {\rm{(c) = 0}}{\rm{.879}}\end{array}\)

For all \({\rm{z}}\), we examine Appendix Table \({\rm{A}}{\rm{.3}}\) to see if \(\phi {\rm{(z)}}\) equals \({\rm{0}}{\rm{.879}}\). At the point where the row marked \({\rm{1}}{\rm{.1}}\) and the column marked \({\rm{.07}}\) cross, As, a result, the number is \({\rm{0}}{\rm{.879}}\).Then,

\({\rm{c = 1}}{\rm{.17}}\)

Therefore, the value is \({\rm{1}}{\rm{.17}}\).

05

Explanation

(d)It's the region above the interval with a left endpoint of \({\rm{ - c}}\) that falls under the standard normal curve. Thus

\({\rm{P( - c}} \le {\rm{Z}} \le {\rm{c) = }}\phi {\rm{(c) - }}\phi {\rm{( - c)}}\)

The symmetry of the normal distribution curve is used here. As a result, we can conclude that

\(\begin{array}{c}\phi {\rm{( - c) = 1 - }}\phi {\rm{(c)}}\\{\rm{P( - c}} \le {\rm{Z}} \le {\rm{c) = }}\phi {\rm{(c) - }}\phi {\rm{( - c)}}\\{\rm{P( - c}} \le {\rm{Z}} \le {\rm{c) = }}\phi {\rm{(c) - (1 - }}\phi {\rm{(c))}}\\{\rm{0}}{\rm{.668 = 2}}\phi {\rm{(c) - 1}}\\{\rm{2}}\phi {\rm{(c) = 1}}{\rm{.668}}\\\phi {\rm{(c) = }}\frac{{{\rm{1}}{\rm{.668}}}}{{\rm{2}}}\\\phi {\rm{(c) = 0}}{\rm{.834}}\end{array}\)

For all \({\rm{z}}\), we examine Appendix Table \({\rm{A}}{\rm{.3}}\) to see if \(\phi {\rm{(z)}}\) equals \({\rm{0}}{\rm{.834}}\). At the point where the row marked \({\rm{0}}{\rm{.9}}\) and the column marked \({\rm{.07}}\) cross, As, a result, the number is \({\rm{0}}{\rm{.834}}\).Then,

\({\rm{c = 0}}{\rm{.97}}\)

If \({\rm{Z}}\) is a continuous \({\rm{rv}}\) with cdf, then the following proposition is \(\phi {\rm{(z)}}\). Then, using \({\rm{a < b}}\), for any two numbers \({\rm{a}}\) and \({\rm{b}}\),

\({\rm{P(a}} \le {\rm{Z}} \le {\rm{b) = }}\phi {\rm{(b) - }}\phi {\rm{(a)}}\)

Therefore, the value is \({\rm{0}}{\rm{.97}}\).

06

Explanation

(e)It is the region to the left of \({\rm{ - c}}\) and to the right of \({\rm{c}}\) under the standard normal curve. In the diagram below, this is illustrated by the shaded area. We can observe from the diagram that:

The area to the left is equal to \({\rm{phi( - c)}}\).

The right-hand area \({\rm{ = 1 - }}\phi {\rm{(c)}}\).

As a result, the overall probability is equal to the sum of both areas:

\({\rm{P(c}} \le {\rm{|Z|) = (}}\phi {\rm{( - c)) + (1 - }}\phi {\rm{(c))}}\)

The symmetry of the normal distribution curve is used here. As a result, we can conclude that

\(\phi {\rm{( - c) = 1 - }}\phi {\rm{(c)}}\)

Using the two equations above, we can get the following result:

\(\begin{array}{c}{\rm{P(c}} \le {\rm{|Z|) = (}}\phi {\rm{( - c)) + (1 - }}\phi {\rm{(c))}}\\{\rm{P(c}} \le {\rm{|Z|) = (1 - }}\phi {\rm{(c)) + (1 - }}\phi {\rm{(c))}}\\{\rm{0}}{\rm{.016 = 2(1 - }}\phi {\rm{(c))}}\\{\rm{0}}{\rm{.008 = 1 - }}\phi {\rm{(c)}}\\\phi {\rm{(c) = 1 - 0}}{\rm{.008}}\\\phi {\rm{(c) = 0}}{\rm{.992}}\end{array}\)

For all \({\rm{z}}\), we examine Appendix Table \({\rm{A}}{\rm{.3}}\) to see if \(\phi {\rm{(z)}}\) equals \({\rm{0}}{\rm{.992}}\). At the point where the row marked \({\rm{2}}{\rm{.4}}\) and the column marked \({\rm{.01}}\) cross, As, a result, the number is \({\rm{0}}{\rm{.992}}\).Then,

\({\rm{c = 2}}{\rm{.41}}\)

Therefore, the value is \({\rm{2}}{\rm{.41}}\).

There are two machines available for cutting corks intended for use in wine bottles. The first produces corks with diameters that are normally distributed with mean \({\bf{3}}\) cm and standard deviation \(.{\bf{1}}\) cm. The second machine produces corks with diameters that have a normal distribution with mean \({\bf{3}}.{\bf{04}}\)cm and standard deviation \(.{\bf{02}}\)cm. Acceptable corks have diameters between \({\bf{2}}.{\bf{9}}\)cm and \({\bf{3}}.{\bf{1}}\)cm. Which machine is more likely to produce an acceptable cork?

The article 鈥淎 Model of Pedestrians鈥 Waiting Times for Street Crossings at Signalized Intersections鈥 (Transportation Research, \({\rm{2013: 17--28}}\)) suggested that under some circumstances the distribution of waiting time X could be modelled with the following pdf:

\({\rm{f(x;\theta ,\tau ) = }}\left\{ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}{\frac{{\rm{\theta }}}{{\rm{\tau }}}{{{\rm{(1 - x/\tau )}}}^{{\rm{\theta - 1}}}}}&{{\rm{0}} \le {\rm{x < \tau }}}\\{\rm{0}}&{{\rm{ otherwise }}}\end{array}} \right.\)

a. Graph \({\rm{f(x;\theta ,80)}}\) for the three cases \({\rm{\theta = 4,1}}\) and \({\rm{.5}}\) (these graphs appear in the cited article) and comment on their shapes. b. Obtain the cumulative distribution function of X. c. Obtain an expression for the median of the waiting time distribution. d. For the case \({\rm{\theta = 4,\tau = 80}}\) calculate \({\rm{P(50}} \le {\rm{X}} \le {\rm{70)}}\) without at this point doing any additional integration.

Two machines that produce wine corks, the first one having a normal diameter distribution with mean value \({\rm{3\;cm}}\) and standard deviation\({\rm{.1\;cm}}\), and the second having a normal diameter distribution with mean value \({\rm{3}}{\rm{.04\;cm}}\) and standard deviation\({\rm{.02\;cm}}\). Acceptable corks have diameters between \({\rm{2}}{\rm{.9}}\) and\({\rm{3}}{\rm{.1\;cm}}\). If \({\rm{60\% }}\) of all corks used come from the first machine and a randomly selected cork is found to be acceptable, what is the probability that it was produced by the first machine?

The article 鈥淪econd Moment Reliability Evaluation vs. Monte Carlo Simulations for Weld Fatigue Strength鈥 (Quality and Reliability Engr. Intl., \({\rm{2012: 887 - 896}}\)) considered the use of a uniform distribution with \({\rm{A = }}{\rm{.20}}\) and \({\rm{B = 4}}{\rm{.25}}\) for the diameter \({\rm{X}}\) of a certain type of weld (mm).

a. Determine the pdf of \({\rm{X}}\) and graph it.

b. What is the probability that diameter exceeds \({\rm{3 mm}}\)?

c. What is the probability that diameter is within \({\rm{1 mm}}\) of the mean diameter?

d. For any value \({\rm{a}}\) satisfying \({\rm{.20 < a < a + 1 < 4}}{\rm{.25}}\), what is \({\rm{P(a < X < a + 1)}}\)?

The accompanying normal probability plot was constructed from a sample of \({\rm{30}}\) readings on tension for mesh screens behind the surface of video display tubes used in computer monitors. Does it appear plausible that the tension distribution is normal?
