The diameters of ball bearings are distributed normally. The mean diameter is 125 millimeters and the standard deviation is 3 millimeters. Find the probability that the diameter of a selected bearing is between 120 and 127 millimeters. Round your answer to four decimal places. 0.1700 0.7011 0.8911 0.6101

Step 1
- Mean (\(\mu\)) = 125 millimeters - Standard deviation (\(\sigma\)) = 3 millimeters - We need to find the probability that the diameter (X) is between 120 and 127 millimeters. Show more…

A machine produces bearings with mean diameter 3.00 inches and standard deviation 0.01 inch. Bearings with diameters in excess of 3.02 inches or less than 2.98 inches will fail to meet quality specifications. a. Approximately what fraction of this machine's production will fail to meet specifications? b. What assumptions did you make concerning the distribution of bearing diameters in order to answer this question?
