8. A manufacturing company of light bulb claims that an average light bulb lasts 500 days. A contractor randomly selects 30 bulbs for testing. The sampled bulbs last an average of 490 days, with a standard deviation of 100 days. If the claim were true, what is the probability that 30 randomly selected bulbs would have an average life of no more than 490 days? [10]

Professor Sun’s home uses two light bulbs. On average, a light bulb lasts for 22 days (exponentially distributed). When a light bulb burns out, it takes an average of 2 days (exponentially distributed) before he replaces the bulb. (a) Formulate a three-state birth-death model of this situation. (b) Determine the fraction of the time that both light bulbs are working. (c) Determine the fraction of the time that no light bulbs are working.

The lifespan of a light bulb manufactured by a certain company is measured by a random variable X with the following probability density function, f (x) = { 0.02e−0.02x x > 0 0 otherwise where x denotes the life, in hours, of a randomly chosen bulb. What is the probability that the lifespan of the bulb is between 30 and 80 hours? (Round your answer to 4 decimal places.)

16. In order to determine the life expectancy of a particular type of light bulb manufactured by a lighting company, the corporate quality control officer randomly selected 10 bulbs from the pre-packaging section of the company's production line. The bulbs were subsequently tested in the quality control lab and the following data was recorded.

GRADED PROBLEM SET #6 Answer each of the following questions completely. There are a total of 20 points possible in the assignment. A manufacturer of compact fluorescent light bulbs advertises that the distribution of the lifespans of these light bulbs is nearly normal with a mean of 9,000 hours and a standard deviation of 1,000 hours. What is the probability that a randomly chosen light bulb lasts more than 10,500 hours? What is the probability that the mean lifespan of...

4. A company tells you that their light bulbs last two years on average, with an exponential distribution. a. If they are correct, what is the probability that the light bulb will last between three and four years? b. What is the probability that the light bulb will last one year or less? c. If the light bulb lasts eight years, should you be surprised? (Is the probability of this event less than five percent?) Does it seem like the...
A type of lightbulb is labeled as having an average lifetime of 1000 hours.
(a)A type of lightbulb is labeled as having an average lifetime of 1000 hours. It's reasonable to model the probability of failure of these bulbs by an exponential density function with mean μ = 1000. (i) Use this model to find the probability that a bulb fails within the first 500 hours (Round your answer to three decimal places.) (ii) Use this model to find the probability that a bulb bums for more than 700 hours. (b) What is the median lifetime of...

5. The life of a type of electric light bulb can be modeled by an exponential distribution with 0.001 (a) What is the average life of this type of light bulb? And determine the probability that a randomly picked light bulb has a life shorter than the average life. (2pt) (b) Determine the probability that a light bulb fails within 1200 hours. (2pt) (c) If 4 bulbs are installed at the same time and work independently in a house, what...

2. Light bulbs are known to have an average lifetime of 2,000 hours. Suppose we model the lifetime of a light bulb by the following probability density function with (yet unknown) parameter c: p(t) = 1-e-t/c when t20 and p(t) = 0 otherwise. (a) Determine the value of the parameter c so that the probability density function has mean 2,000 hours. (b) Determine the probability a lightbulb fails before 1,500 hours. (C) Suppose the lightbulb has already been on for...

Question 2 The average lifetime of a light bulb is 3,000 hours with a standard deviation of 696 hours A simple random sample of 36 bulbs is taken. a. What is the probability that the average life in the sample will be greater than 3,219 hours? What is the probability that the average life in the sample will be less than 3,180 hours? c. What is the probability that the average life in the sample will be between 2,670 and...
