Normal distribution
Task
A machinery produces screws with an average length of . The length of the screws is normal distributed with a standard deviation of .
Calculate the percentage of screws which are
- shorter than 3.8 in
- longer than 4.3 in
- between 3.9 in and 4.1 in
- shorter than 3.8 in and longer than 4.3 in
Instructions
1. | | Select the Normal Distribution from the drop-down list. |
2. | | Change the parameter to 4 , since the mean of the screws is 4 in. |
3. | | Change the parameter to 0.1, since the standard deviation of the screws is 0.1 in. |
