8. The random variable X is normally distributed with mean and standard deviation . It

is known that P( X > 30 ) = 0.6 and P( X > 38 ) = 0.2. Find the value of and .

[5 marks]

Solution: XN(, 2)

P(X > 30) = 0.6 – 0.253 = 30 –

P(X > 38) = 0.2 0.842 = 38 –

= 7.306

= 38 – 0.842(7.306)

= 7.31, = 31.8 (3 s. f.)

11. During each working day in a certain factory a number of accidents occur independently

according to a Poisson distribution with mean 0.5.

Calculate the probability that

(a) during any one day , there are two or more accidents, [3 marks]

(b) during two consecutive days there are exactly three accidents altogether. [3 marks]

By using a suitable approximation, calculate the probability that there are 3 weeks that

are accident –free, out of 50 consecutive five –day weeks . [5 marks]
