7East-East Airlines has the policy of employing only Indian womenwhose height is between 62 inches and 69 inches. If the height of Indianwomen is approximately normally distributed with a mean of 64 inchesand a standard deviation of 3 inches, out of the 1000 applicationsreceived find the number of applicants that would be(i) too tall (ii) too short (iii) of acceptable height

Given data: Mean = 64 inch Standard deviation = 3 Total samples = 1000 women

Answered: 7 East-East Airlines has the policy of…

An airline is charged by an airport based upon the total taxi-time that an airplane spends to take off and land. Suppose taxi time, a, at airport A is normally distributed with mean of 27 minutes and standard deviation 8 minutes; taxi time, b, at airport B is normally distributed with mean of 39 minutes and standard deviation 12 minutes; taxi time, c, at airport C is normally distributed with mean of 41 minutes and standard deviation 10 minutes. JJ Airlines has a plane flying to airport A, airport B, and airport C on Sunday. Airport A charges $131 per minute of taxi time; airport B charges $150 per minute of taxi time; airport c charges $200 per minute of taxi time. Let X = total amount of taxi time in minutes for the JJ plane. Let W = total taxi charges for the JJ plane. X is defined as X = a + b + c. W = 131a + 150b + 200c. Note that a, b, and c are independent of one another. d) Calculate the standard deviation of W. e) If we pick a value k such that the probability that X > k…
An advertising executive wants to estimate the mean amount of time that consumers spend with digital media daily. From past studies, the standard deviation is estimated as 47 minutes What sample size is needed if the executive wants to be 90% confident of being correct to within +7 minutes? n=Round up to the nearest integer.)
What is the best approximation of the standard deviation ofthe measures -4, -3.0, 8, and 9?
Steel rods manufactured in a plant must be a minimum of 2 metres in length in order to pass through an inspection procedure. Steel rods with lengths that are normally distributed, with a mean of 2.1 metres and a standard deviation of 0.1 metres, are produced during the manufacturing process. A random sample of 25 steel rods is chosen, and their lengths are measured using a tape measure. i. Decide on the appropriate distribution of the sample mean of the 25 steel rods in the sample using the appropriate distribution formula. ii. Calculate the probability that the sample mean of steel rods that meet the minimum length requirement is the same as the mean of the entire sample. iii. For example, if the observed sample mean length of steel rods is 2.15, calculate the 98% two-sided confidence interval for the true mean length of the manufacturing process, assuming that it is not known.
In the 2000 census, the so-called 'short form' contained only 7 questions, including name, gender, age, race, how the person is related to the head of household, whether they are Hispanic, and whether they own or rent their home. According to U.S. Census Bureau, the average time to complete the short form is 10 minutes. Assuming a standard deviation of 2 minutes and a simple random sample of 30 persons who completed the short form, does it seem very likely that the members of such a sample would have required an average of 8 minutes or less to
1) A half-century ago, the mean height of women in a particular country in their 20s was 63.7 inches. Assume that the heights of today's women in their 20s are approximately normally distributed with a standard deviation of 2.31 inches. If the mean height today is the same as that of a half-century ago, what percentage of all samples of 26 of today's women in their 20s have mean heights of at least 65.04 inches?

In an inter-school competition, there are a total of 14 participants. Each participant answered 20 multiple choice questions. Below are the numbers of correct answers obtained by the participants: 16, 11, 20, 19, 18, 17, 15, 16, 17, 19, 20, 17, 13, 13 (a) Find the mean, 90 th percentile, interquartile range, and standard deviation of the number of correct answers obtained by a participant. (b) Each participant has a basic score of 100 points. For each correct answer, 20 points would be given; for each wrong answer, 10 points would be deducted. Use X to represent the number of correct answers and Y to represent the final points of the participant, express Y as a linear function of X. (c) Find the following summary statistics of the final points a participant gets in this competition: Mean, standard deviation, interquartile range, maximum. (d) Write a simple summary report (in around 30 – 50 words) about the final points of a participant gets in this inter-school competition. (The…
The Ilfetimes of Brand A tires are distributed with mean 45,000 miles and standard deviation 4500 miles while Brand B tires last for only 36,000 miles on the average with standard deviation 2020 miles. Nicole’s Brand A tires lasted 32,000 miles and Yvette's Brand B tires lasted 30,000 miles. Relatively speaking within their own brands, which driver got the better wear?
