A company selling light bulbs claims in its advertisements that its light bulbs’ average life is 1000 hours. In fact, the life span of these light bulbs is normally distributed with a mean of 1000 hours and a standard deviation of 100 hours. Find the probability that a randomly chosen light bulb will last less than 900 hours.

The probability that a randomly chosen light bulb will last less than 900 hours is 0.1587.

Step-by-step explanation:

The life span of these light bulbs is normally distributed with a mean of 1000 hours and a standard deviation of 100 hours

Mean =

Standard deviation =

We are supposed to find the probability that a randomly chosen light bulb will last less than 900 hours.i.e. P(x<900)

So,

Z=-1

P(x<900)=P(z<-1)=0.1587

Hence the probability that a randomly chosen light bulb will last less than 900 hours is 0.1587.

median is the value separating the higher half of a data sample, a population or probablity distribution from the lower half.

step-by-step explanation:

say you have 3,8,7,3,1,9,8 order them from lowest to highest

if orderd it would be 1,3,3,7,8,8,9 now you take away from the lowest and the highest until you end up in the middle.

so you would remove the 1 and 9 leaving you with 5 digits remaining

when you've reached the middle that would be your answer so in this case the answer is 7

if there were two numbers left say 7 and 5 you'd and them together so 12 then divide by 2 witch would equal 6 so the answer would be 6

good luck on that project hoped i you at all
