GIL internet services record customer usage patterns. Historically they have found the duration of an internet session is normally distributed with an average duration of 77.5 minutes and a standard deviation of 20.6 minutes. What is the probability a randomly selected session would last longer than two hours or less than thirty-five minutes? (4 decimal places)
A quality control expert at LIFE Batteries wants to test their new batteries. The design engineer claims they have a standard deviation of 77 minutes with a mean life of 551 minutes.
If the claim is true, in a sample of 135 batteries, what is the probability that the mean battery life would be greater than 545.6 minutes? Round your answer to four decimal places.
Given a sample with a mean of 57 and a standard deviation of 14, find x such that Pr(X > x) = 0.715. Round your answer to two decimal places, e.g. 22.96.
