The trucking company has a policy that any truck with a mileage more than 2.5 standard deviations above the mean should be removed from the road and inspected. What is the probability that a randomly selected truck from the fleet will have to be inspected? ROUND YOUR ANSWER TO 4 DECIMAL PLACES

0.0062 = 0.62% probability that a randomly selected truck from the fleet will have to be inspected

Step-by-step explanation:

Z-score

Problems of normally distributed samples can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean and standard deviation , the zscore of a measure X is given by:

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

What is the probability that a randomly selected truck from the fleet will have to be inspected?

Values of Z above 2.5. So this probability is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z = 2.5.

Z = 2.5 has a pvalue of 0.9938

1 - 0.9938 = 0.0062

0.0062 = 0.62% probability that a randomly selected truck from the fleet will have to be inspected
