This is a three-hour examination and consists of review questions and problems.
‘You may attempt not more than a total of five review questions and problems.
Q.l.a) Assumed that the normal distribution with Population Mean = 40 and Population standard
deviation = 6. Find the value of x that has (i) 45% of the area to the left, and (ii) 14% of the area to
the right.
) A certain machine makes electrical resistors having a mean resistance of 40 obms and a standard
deviation of 2 ohms. Assumption that the resistance follows a normal distribution and can be
measured to any degree accuracy, what percentage of resisters will have a resistance exceeding 43
Ohms.
Q2a) Gauges are used to reject all components where a certain dimension is not within the specification
of 1.5 4d: Itis known that this measurement is normally distributed with mean 1.50 and standard
deviation 0.2. Determine the value of d such that the specifications “cover” 95% of the:
‘measurements.
b) A certain type of storage battery lasts, on average, 3.0 years, with a standard deviation of 0.5 years:
‘Assuming that the battery lives are normally distributed, find the probability that a given battery
will last less than 2.3 years.
Q3.a) Given a standard normal distribution. Find the area under the curve that lies (i) to the right of
z= 1.84 and (ii) between z= -1.97 and z= 0.86.
b) Given a standard deviation distribution, find the value of K such that (i) P(Z>K) = 0.3015, and
(ii) P(K-0.18) =0.4197.
Q4a) A lotcontaining 7 components is sampled by a quality inspector; the lot contains 4 good
‘components and 3 defective components. A sample 3 is taken by the inspector. Find the expected
value of the umber of good components in this sample.

Q6 — Inproducing gallium-arsenide microchips, it is known that ratio between gallium and arsenide is
independent of producing a high percentage of workable wafers, which are the main components of
microchips. Let X denotes the ratio of gallium to arsenide and Y denote the percentage of micro
‘wavers retrieved during a I-hour period. X and Y are independent random variable with the joint
density being known as,
