Estimation

A new framework of data analysis where the new statistical methods are used for interpreting the results and analyzing the data is known as estimation in statistics.

Question

Assume that the random variable. Is normally distributed, with mean r= 100 and standard deviation a= 15. Compute the probability P(X>112)

Features Features Normal distribution is characterized by two parameters, mean (µ) and standard deviation (σ). When graphed, the mean represents the center of the bell curve and the graph is perfectly symmetric about the center. The mean, median, and mode are all equal for a normal distribution. The standard deviation measures the data's spread from the center. The higher the standard deviation, the more the data is spread out and the flatter the bell curve looks. Variance is another commonly used measure of the spread of the distribution and is equal to the square of the standard deviation.

The average number of miles (in thousands) that a car's tire will function before needing replacement is 68 and the standard deviation is 19. Suppose that 42 randomly selected tires are tested. Round all answers to 4 decimal places where possible and assume a normal distribution. If a randomly selected individual tire is tested, find the probability that the number of miles (in thousands) before it will need replacement is between 65 and 68.6. For the 42 tires tested, find the probability that the average miles (in thousands) before need of replacement is between 65 and 68.6. For part b, is the assumption that the distribution is normal necessary? NoYes

The mean incubation time for a type of fertilized egg kept at a certain temperature is 22 days. Suppose that the incubation times are approximately normally distributed with a standard deviation of 2 days. Complete parts (a) through (e) below. b. Find and interpret the probability that a randomly selected fertilized egg hatches in less than 20 days. c. Find and interpret the probability that a randomly selected fertilized egg takes over 24 days to hatch. d. Find and interpret the probability that a randomly selected fertilized egg hatches between 18 and 22 days. e. Would it be unusual for an egg to hatch in less than 16 days? Why? The probability of an egg hatching in less than 16 days is __ so it would not or would be unusual, since the probability is greater or less than 0.05.
