Coal is carried from a mine in West Virginia to a power plant in New York in hopper cars on a long train. The automatic hopper car loader is set to put 65 tons of coal into each car. The actual weights of coal loaded into each car are normally distributed, with mean ? = 65 tons and standard deviation ? = 1.7 ton. (a) What is the probability that one car chosen at random will have less than 64.5 tons of coal? (Round your answer to four decimal places.)(b) What is the probability that 37 cars chosen at random will have a mean load weight x of less than 64.5 tons of coal? (Round your answer to four decimal places.)
Q1A Hi wonderful Bartleby team, I need help with this exercise, please provide answer and short explanation for all the answers. Thanks in advance. The last part of it is the sentence and the options are: -(Reject/ Fail to reject) the null hypothesis. There (Is / Not) sufficient evidence to support the claim that those treated with magnets have a greater mean reduction in pain than those given a sham treatment.
just b, c and d please thank you!
An IPHONE has an advertised failure rate of 0.01 per hour. The failure rate is constant and the exponential distribution applies. (a) What is the mean time to failure? (b) What is the probability that 300 hours will pass before a failure is observed? (a) The mean time to failure is hours. (Type an integer or a decimal. Do not round.) (b) The probability that 300 hours will pass before a failure is observed is (Round to four decimal places as needed.)
Coal is carried from a mine in West Virginia to a power plant in New York in hopper cars on a long train. The automatic hopper car loader is set to put 90 tons of coal into each car.
