1)The time requires to assemble a bidet you bought due to a toilet paper shortage is normally distributed with mean μ = 12.9 minutes and standard deviation σ = 2.0 minutes. What is the probability that it will take you longer than 15 minutes to assemble the bidet?
2)Per the USA Food and Drug Administration, frozen custard must
contain 1.4% egg yolk solids and at least 10% milkfat. If the
percentage of egg yolk solids is less than 1.4%, then it legally
must be called ice cream. A food chemist is hired on a potential
suspicion that Culver’s frozen custard does not meet the legal
definition across all their loca- tions, so he decides to sample
the vanilla custard at 50 different locations across Wisconsin. The
sample mean percentage of egg yolk solids is 1.2%, with a sample
standard deviation of 0.5%.

3)If the distribution of the weights of all people traveling by air
between Dallas and El Paso is normal with μ = 163 pounds, and σ =
18 pounds, then
(a) What’s the distribution of the sample mean of the weight of 36
passengers? Be specific and provide the mean and variance.
(b) What is the probability that the sample mean of the weight of
36 passengers exceeds 170 pounds?
deasr student we can provide you with solution of one question at a time.
1) The time (X) requires to assemble a bidet bought due to a toilet paper shortage is normally distributed with
mean μ = 12.9 minutes
standard deviation σ = 2.0 minutes.
the probability that it will take longer than 15 minutes to assemble the bidet =
the probability that it will take longer than 15 minutes to assemble the bidet = 0.1469
