Suppose the longevity of iPad batteries, X, can be modeled by a normal distribution with mean μ = 8.2 hours and standard deviation σ = 1.2 hours, i.e. X ∼ N (μ = 8.2, σ = 1.2). (a)  Find the probability a randomly selected iPad lasts less than 10 hours. (b)  Suppose 16 iPads are randomly selected. Find the probability that the mean longevity, X ̄, is less than 7.9 hours. (c)  Find the 25th percentile of the individual battery times, X.

Question

Suppose the longevity of iPad batteries, X, can be modeled by a normal distribution with mean μ = 8.2 hours and standard deviation σ = 1.2 hours, i.e. X ∼ N (μ = 8.2, σ = 1.2).

  1. (a)  Find the probability a randomly selected iPad lasts less than 10 hours.

  2. (b)  Suppose 16 iPads are randomly selected. Find the probability that the mean

    longevity, X ̄, is less than 7.9 hours.

  3. (c)  Find the 25th percentile of the individual battery times, X.

  4. (d)  Suppose 16 iPads are randomly selected. Find the 25th percentile of the sample mean X ̄.

  5. (e)  Suppose 16 iPads are randomly selected. Let Y equal the number with longevity more than 10 hours. What is the distribution of Y ?

  6. (f)  In reference to question 6.5(e), determine the probability that exactly 2 of the iPads last longer than 10 hours.
