Question

Suppose that the lifetimes of light bulbs are approximately normally distributed, with a mean of 56 hours and a standard deviation of 3.5 hours.

What proportion of light bulbs will last more than 64 hours? Round your answer to four decimal places.

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.
