PRACTICE ANOTHERCoal is carried from a mine in West Virginia to a power plant in New York in hopper cars on a long train. The automatic hopper car loader is set to put 82 tons of coal into each car. Theactual weights of coal loaded into each car are normally distributed, with mean u = 82 tons and standard deviation o = 0.6 ton.(a) What is the probability that one car chosen at random will have less than 81.5 tons of coal? (Round your answer to four decimal places.)(b) What is the probability that 49 cars chosen at random will have a mean load weight x of less than 81.5 tons of coal? (Round your answer to four decimal places.)(c) Suppose the weight of coal in one car was less than 81.5 tons. Would that fact make you suspect that the loader had slipped out of adjustment?O YesO NoSuppose the weight of coal in 49 cars selected at random had an average x of less than 81.5 tons. Would that fact make you suspect that the loader had slipped out of adjustment?Why?O Yes, the probability that this deviation is random is very small.O Yes, the probability that this deviation is random is very large.O No, the probability that this deviation is random is very small.O No, the probability that this deviation is random is very large.US O 9 I 12:16hp&24%%238.4.52.3

The probability is given by P(X<81.5) = P(X-uσ<81.5-uσ) P(X<81.5) = P(Z<81.5-820.6)…

Samuel F.B. Morse (1791 – 1872), the creator of Morse Code, claimed that 12% of all letters used in the English language were “e”s. Suppose random samples of 196 letters are selected from a book What is the probability that a random sample of 196 letters will contain at least 10% "e"s? Type your calculated z-score here. Express its value to the nearest hundredth (two decimal places). Type your probability here. Express its value to four decimal places. Do not round.
