Find the probabilities for each, using the standard normal distribution
he local police department must write, on average, 5 tickets a day to keep department revenues at budgeted levels. Suppose the number of tickets written per day follows a Poisson distribution with a mean of 6.4 tickets per day. Find the probability that exactly 6 tickets are written on a randomly selected day from this population
A NUMMI assembly line, which has been operating since 1984, builds 900 cars and trucks in a week. Generally, 10% of those cars are defective coming off the assembly line.
What type of distribution does the event of having defective cars follow? What are the mean and standard deviation of this random event? (6 points)
Can we apply the normal distribution to study this event? Check the conditions and answer the question. (6 points)
Find the probability that the assembly line produces at least 825 cars, that are not defective and functional, in a week. Graph the situation, shade in the area to be determined, and find the probability. (6 points)
