The diameters of metallic spherical engine components is a continuous random variable and is uniformly distributed between $1.4 < X < 2.6$ a) Determine the cumulative distribution function of the diameter. [5 points] b) Determine the proportion of diameters that exceed 2.1 millimeters. [6 points] Solve part b) using R. Include the commands and the output. [6 points] d) What diameter is exceeded by 75% of the components? [10 points] e) Determine the mean and standard deviation of the diameters. [7 points]

A process manufactures ball bearings with diameters that are normally distributed with mean 25.3 mm and standard deviation 0.07 mm. Round the answers to at least four decimal places. B) Find the 67th percentile of the diameters. C) A hole is to be designed so that 3% of the ball bearings will fit through it. The bearings that fit through the hole will be melted down and remade. What should the diameter of the hole be? D) between what two values are the middle 50% of the diameters?

A machine produces metal pieces that are cylindrical in shape. A sample of these pieces is taken and the diameters are found to be 1.01, 0.97, 1.03, 1.04, 0.99, 0.98, 0.99, 1.01, and 1.03 centimeters. For all computations, assume an approximately normal distribution. (a) Compute a 95% confidence interval on the mean diameter. (10 points)(b) Compute a 90% prediction interval on the next diameter to be measured. (10 points)(c) Compute a 99% tolerance bounds for coverage of the central 95%of the distribution of diameters
