A student measures a quantity many times and calculates his mean as µ = 23 and his standard
deviation as σ = 1.
(a) What fraction of his readings would you expect to find between:
(i) 22 and 24?
(ii) 22.5 and 23.5?
(iii) 20 and 25?
(iv) 24 and 25?
(b) What is the probability that some of his measurements will be less than 20.6?
1. The mean and standard deviation of a process are known to be μ 200 and o = 10. Calculate
specification limits that should contain at least 99% of the population assuming:
a. Nothing is known about the distribution shape (Cheyshev).
b. The distribution is unimodal (Camp-Meidell).
c. The distribution is normal.
