Lucky Lumen light bulbs have an expected life that is exponentially distributed with a mean of 20,000 hours. Determine the probability that one of these light bulbs will last:
1. At least 20,000 hours
2. No longer than 4000 hours
3. Between 4,000 and 24,000 hours
Please show all work
Mean expected life = 20,000 hours
= 1 / Mean
= 0.00005
Ans 1)
At least 20,000 hours
The probability that one of these light bulbs will last at least 20,000 hours = e- * t
= e- (0.00005 * 20000)
= e-1
= 0.368
Ans 2)
No longer than 4000 hours
The probability that one of these light bulbs will last no longer then 4,000 hours = 1 - e- * t
= 1 - e-(0.00005 * 4000)
= 1 - 0.818
= 0.181
Ans 3)
Between 4,000 and 24,000 hours
The probability that one of these light bulbs will last between 4,000 and 24,000 hours = 1 - (The probability that one of these light bulbs will last no longer then 4,000 hours + The probability that one of these light bulbs will last at least 24,000 hours)
= 1 - (0.181 + e-(0.00005 * 24000))
= 1 - (0.181 + 0.301)
= 1 - 0.482
= 0.518

A company manufactures light bulbs. The company wants the bulbs to have a mean life span of 991 hours. This average is maintained by periodically testing random samples of 16 light bulbs. If the t-value falls between -t0.95 and t0.95, then the company will be satisfied that it is manufacturing acceptable light bulbs. For a random sample, the mean life span of the sample is 999 hours and the standard deviation is 22 hours. Assume that life spans are approximately...
The life of light bulbs is distributed normally. The standard deviation of the lifetime is 15 hours and the mean lifetime of a bulb is 580 hours. Find the probability of a bulb lasting for at least 590 hours. Round your answer to four decimal places.
