Tire pressure monitoring systems ((TPMS) warn the driver when the tire pressure of the vehicle is 27% below the target pressure. Suppose the target tire pressure of a certain car is 31 psi (pounds per square inch) (a) At what psi will the TPMS trigger a warning for this car? ( Round your answer to 2 decimals) When tire pressure is below ______psi   (b) Suppose the tire pressure is a normally distributed random variable with a standard deviation equal to 3 psi. If the cars average tire pressure is on target , what is the probability that the TPMS will trigger a warning (Round 4 decimls)  Probability ?   (c) The manufactures recommended correct inflation range is 29 psi to33 psi Assume the tires average psi is on target. If a tire on the car is inspected at random , what is the probability that the tires inflation is within the recommended range? (Round your intermediate calculations and final answer to 4 decimals).

Question

Tire pressure monitoring systems ((TPMS) warn the driver when the tire pressure of the vehicle is 27% below the target pressure. Suppose the target tire pressure of a certain car is 31 psi (pounds per square inch)

(a) At what psi will the TPMS trigger a warning for this car? ( Round your answer to 2 decimals)

When tire pressure is below ______psi

 

(b) Suppose the tire pressure is a normally distributed random variable with a standard deviation equal to 3 psi. If the cars average tire pressure is on target , what is the probability that the TPMS will trigger a warning (Round 4 decimls) 

Probability ?

 

(c) The manufactures recommended correct inflation range is 29 psi to33 psi Assume the tires average psi is on target. If a tire on the car is inspected at random , what is the probability that the tires inflation is within the recommended range? (Round your intermediate calculations and final answer to 4 decimals).
