The products that a company is exporting in the United States have an average of 3 weeks lead time and a standard deviation of 0.5 week. Seven products are measured and assumed to be normally distributed, what percentage of the products have shorter lead time than 2.8 weeks?
The migratory habits of zebra in the savanna are normally distributed with a mean of 238 days and a standard deviation of 13 days. Find the probability a single zebra will migrate in les than 220 days.
Two runners are competing in a track meet. Both are hoping to beat the current record in the 100-meter dash (current world record is 9.58 seconds). Runner A’s times over the past two years are normally distributed with mean 10 seconds and standard deviation 0.35 seconds; runner B’s times over the same period are normally distributed with mean 9.85 seconds with standard deviation 0.23 seconds. If these distributions accurately describe the two runners’ performance in this race, which runner is most likely to beat the record? [Note: this problem does not require Excel or the normal table to solve.]

Does it take a different amount of time for seeds to germinate if they are near rock music that is continuously playing compared to being near classical music? The 31 seeds that were exposed to rock music took an average of 22 days to germinate, and had a standard deviation was 14 days. The 66 seeds that were exposed to classical music took an average of 27 days to germinate, and had a standard deviation for these seeds was 6 days. What can be concluded at the αα = 0.05 level of significance?

Thanks to an initiative to recruit top students, an administrator at a college claims that this year's entering class must have a greater mean IQ score than that of entering classes from previous years. The administrator tests a random sample of 17 of this year's entering students and finds that their mean IQ score is 112, with a standard deviation of 15. The college records indicate that the mean IQ score for entering students from previous years is 111. Is there enough evidence to conclude, at the 0.10 level of significance, that the population mean IQ score, μ, of this year's class is greater than that of previous years? To answer, assume that the IQ scores of this year's entering class are approximately normally distributed. Perform a one-tailed test. Then complete the parts below. Carry your intermediate computations to three or more decimal places. (If necessary, consult a list of formulas.) (a) State the null hypothesis H0 and the alternative hypothesis H1. H0:…

According to the historical data, the life expectancy in the United States is less than or equal to the life expectancy in Ireland. A new study has been made to see whether this has changed. Records of 235 individuals from the United States who died recently are selected at random. The 235 individuals lived an average of 77.6 years with a standard deviation of 6.7 years. Records of 220 individuals from Ireland who died recently are selected at random and independently. The 220 individuals lived an average of 76.3 years with a standard deviation of 5.5 years. Assume that the population standard deviations of the life expectancies can be estimated by the sample standard deviations, since the samples that are used to compute them are quite large. At the 0.1 level of significance, is there enough evidence to support the claim that the life expectancy, u,, in the United States is greater than the life expectancy, µ, in Ireland? Perform a one-tailed test. Then fill in the table below. Carry…
