### Tire Pressure Monitoring Systems (TPMS) Alert Parameters#### Problem ContextTire pressure monitoring systems (TPMS) warn the driver when the tire pressure of the vehicle is 24% below the target pressure. Suppose the target tire pressure of a certain car is 29 psi (pounds per square inch).#### Questions**(a) At what psi will the TPMS trigger a warning for this car? (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)****Answer:**- When the tire pressure is below [\[Input Box\]] psi.**Explanation:**- To find the trigger pressure, calculate 24% of the target pressure (29 psi) and subtract the result from the target pressure: \[ \text{Trigger Pressure} = 29 - (0.24 \times 29) = 29 - 6.96 = 22.04 \text{ psi} \] Enter "22.04" in the input box.**(b) Suppose tire pressure is a normally distributed random variable with a standard deviation equal to 3 psi. If the car's average tire pressure is on target, what is the probability that the TPMS will trigger a warning? (Round your answer to 4 decimal places.)****Answer:**- Probability: [\[Input Box\]]**Explanation:**- Given the average tire pressure is 29 psi and standard deviation is 3 psi, we need to find the probability that tire pressure falls below 22.04 psi.- Convert the tire pressure value into a Z-score using the formula: \[ Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma} \] where \(X = 22.04\), \(\mu = 29\), and \(\sigma = 3\): \[ Z = \frac{22.04 - 29}{3} = \frac{-6.96}{3} = -2.32 \] Using the Z-table, find the probability corresponding to \(Z = -2.32\): \[ \text{Probability} \approx 0.0102 \] Enter "0.0102" in the input box.

Our environment is very sensitive to the amount of ozone in the upper atmosphere. The level of ozone normally found is 4.7 parts/million (ppm). A researcher believes that the current ozone level is not at the normal level. The mean of 13 samples is 4.9 ppm with a standard deviation of 1.0. Does the data support the claim at the 0.1 level? Assume the population distribution is approximately normal. Step 3 of 3: Make the decision to reject or fail to reject the null hypothesis.

Attenuation is the reduction of the amplitude of a signal, electric current, or other oscillation. With maximum attenuation, a scanner will not be able to read a bar code at a fixed distance. After substantial amount of data collection, a group of instrumentation engineers decided to model a variation of maximum attenuation of scanners as a normal distribution with a mean of 10.1 decibels and standard deviation of 2.7, same unit. What proportion of the products have maximum attenuation greater than 15.1 dB? 0.0718 none of these 0.0322 0.0214
