A lumber yard produces logs that have a label length of 20.4 feet. Let X be the length of a randomly selected log from the lumber yard. It is known that X~N(µ= 21.37,02 = 0.16) a. Find the probability that a randomly selected log is longer than 22.07 feet. b. The lumber yard is troubled about some logs being too short. Because of this, the lumber yard will not sell logs that are 1.5 standard deviations smaller than the mean. In a pile of 2000 logs, how many logs can we expect not to be sold? The lumber yard decides they wants to remove both extremes from their selling pile (too long and too short). If the lumber yard wants to remove logs whose length is in the top 10% or bottom 10%, find the cutoffs. с.

Assume that the readings at freezing on a batch of thermometers are normally distributed with a mean of 0°C and a standard deviation of 1.00°C. A single thermometer is randomly selected and tested. Find the probability of obtaining a reading between -2.421°C and -2.271°C.P(−2.421<Z<−2.271)
A researcher wants to know whether children with ADHD tend to watch more TV than children who are not diagnosed with the disorder. To examine this, a researcher obtains a sample of n = 36 children (ages 8 to 12 years) who have been diagnosed with ADHD. Each child is asked to keep a journal recording how much time each day is spent watching TV. The average for the sample is M = 4.9 hours/day. Assume that the average TV-watching time for the general population of 8-to-12-year-old children is µ = 4.1 hours/day with σ = 1.8. Is ADHD in children associated with an increased amount of TV-watching?
