Question

Each sweat shop worker at a computer factory can put together 4.8 computers per hour on average with a standard deviation of 1 computers. 8 workers are randomly selected to work the next shift at the factory. Round all answers to 4 decimal places where possible and assume a normal distribution.

Each sweat shop worker at a computer factory can put together 4.8 computers per hour on average with a
standard deviation of 1 computers. 8 workers are randomly selected to work the next shift at the factory.
Round all answers to 4 decimal places where possible and assume a normal distribution.
a. What is the distribution of X? X - N(
b. What is the distribution of ¤? ¤ - N(
c. What is the distribution of > x? > x - N(
d. If one randomly selected worker is observed, find the probability that this worker will put together
between 4.9 and 5.2 computers per hour.
e. For the 8 workers, find the probability that their average number of computers put together per hour
is between 4.9 and 5.2.
f. Find the probability that a 8 person shift will put together between 36.8 and 38.4 computers per
hour.
g. For part e) and f), is the assumption of normal necessary? O NoC Yes
h. A sticker that says "Great Dedication" will be given to the groups of 8 workers who have the top 10%
productivity. What is the least total number of computers produced by a group that receives a
sticker?
computers per hour (round to the nearest computer)
