Concept explainers
A process that manufactures piston rings produces rings whose diameters (in centimeters) vary according to the probability density
- a. Find the mean diameter of rings manufactured by this process.
- b. Find the standard deviation of the diameters of rings manufactured by this process. (Hint: Equation 2.36 may be easier to use than Equation 2.37.)
- c. Find the cumulative distribution function of piston ring diameters.
- d. What proportion of piston rings have diameters less than 9.75 cm?
- e. What proportion of piston rings have diameters between 9.75 and 10.25 cm?
