A manufacturer knows that their items have a normally distributed lifespan, with a mean of 3.2 years, and standard deviation of 0.7 years. If 12 items are picked at random, 10% of the time their mean life will be less than how many years? Give your answer to one decimal place.
Given that,
= / n = 0.7 / 12
P(Z < -1.28) = 0.10
z = -1.28
= z * + = -1.28 * 0.7 / 12 + 3.2 = 2.9
Answers = 2.9 years
