A cable manufacturing company notices their USB cables have flaws appearing at the rate of 1 flaw per 400 meters of cable, following a Poisson distribution. Suppose a sample of 1600 meters of cable is inspected. How likely are they to find zero flaws in their sample? Round your answer to three decimal places. Select the correct interpretation

A company produces steel rods. The lengths of the steel rods are normally distributed with a mean of 241.2-cm and a standard deviation of 0.6-cm.Find P22, which is the length separating the shortest 22% rods from the longest 78%.P22 =
The mean IQ of 200,000 current and past University of Manitoba students has been found to be 81.9. The standard deviation was found to be 13.1. The student enrollment at the University of Manitoba in 2016 was 29,987. The minimum IQ to be able to graduate from the University of Winnipeg has been found to be 104. Of the 29,987 students at the University of Manitoba in 2016, how many would be expected to be smart enough to graduate from the University of Winnipeg? Assume a Gaussian distribution.
Assume that the readings on the thermometers are normally distributed with a mean of 0 degrees and standard deviation of 1.00degreesC. A thermometer is randomly selected and tested.

A certain manufacturer makes 400w light bulbs. Assume that these light bulbs have lifetimes that are normally distributed with a mean lifetime of 480 hours and a standard deviation of 50 hours. Use this table or the ALEKS calculator to find the percentage of light bulbs with lifetimes shorter than 384 hours. For your intermediate computations, use four or more decimal places. Give your final answer to two decimal places (for example 98.23%). % X Español
