I. The mean daily production of a herd of cows
is assumed to be normally distributed with a mean of 32 liters, and
standard deviation of 10.6 liters.
What is the probability that daily production is
between 47.4 and 59.6 liters? Do not round until
you get your your final answer.
II. A distribution of values is normal with a
mean of 9.4 and a standard deviation of 48.1.
Find the probability that a randomly selected value is greater than
-72.4.
P(X > -72.4) =
III. A company produces steel rods. The lengths
of the steel rods are normally distributed with a mean of 145.8-cm
and a standard deviation of 1.8-cm.
Find the probability that the length of a randomly selected steel
rod is less than 145.8-cm.
P(X < 145.8-cm) =
IV. In the country of United States of
Heightlandia, the height measurements of ten-year-old children are
approximately normally distributed with a mean of 55.1 inches, and
standard deviation of 2.3 inches.
A) What is the probability that a randomly chosen child has a
height of less than 59.55 inches?
B) What is the probability that a randomly chosen child has a
height of more than 51.6 inches?
