A very large batch of parts (assume a normal distrbution0 from a manufacturer has a mean weight = 43g and a standard deviation = 4g. If you slect 16 parts at random form that batch, what is the probability that exactly 8 of the 16 parts you selected will have weights exceeding 45g?

5.44% probability that exactly 8 of the 16 parts you selected will have weights exceeding 45g

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.

Normal probability distribution:

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean and standard deviation , the zscore of a measure X is given by:

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Binomial probability distribution:

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

In which is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

And p is the probability of X happening.

Percentage of parts with weights exceeding 45g?

1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 45. So

We have

has a pvalue of 0.6915

1 - 0.6915 = 0.3075

If you slect 16 parts at random form that batch, what is the probability that exactly 8 of the 16 parts you selected will have weights exceeding 45g?

This is P(X = 8) when n = 16, p = 0.3075. So

5.44% probability that exactly 8 of the 16 parts you selected will have weights exceeding 45g

there are 70 more legs than eyes at the dog show (196 – 126 = 70). dogs have two more legs than eyes, and humans have the same number of legs as eyes. thus 70 is twice the number of dogs at the show, so the number of dogs is half of 70, which is 35. to get the number of humans, subtract 35 from 63: 63 – 35 = 28.

step-by-step explanation:

mixtures containing substances that get attracted to magnet can be separated using a magnet. we can separate iron from a mixture of sand and iron, as only iron attracts to the magnet.
