B. What is the probability percentage that 285 or more companies outsourced some part of their manufacturing process in the past two or three years? Round the percent to two decimal place.
C. What is the probability percentage that 48% or less of these companies outsourced some part of their manufacturing process in the past two or three years? Round the percent to tywo decimal places.

Answer:

Following are the solution to this question:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

[tex]\ Mean = 0.54 \times 555 \\[/tex]

           [tex]= 299.7[/tex]

[tex]SD = 11.74[/tex]

In point a:

[tex]\to Z = \frac{(338 - 299.7)}{11.74}[/tex]

       [tex]= \frac{(38.3)}{11.74}\\\\= 3.26[/tex]

[tex]\to P = 0.000557\\\\\to \% = 0.06 \%[/tex]

In point b:

[tex]\to Z = \frac{(285 - 299.7)}{11.74}[/tex]

       [tex]= \frac{(-14.7)}{11.74}\\\\= -1.25\\[/tex]

[tex]\to P = 0.8944\\\\\to \% = 89.44 \%[/tex]

In point c:

[tex]\to 48\% \times 555 = 266.4\\\\\to Z = \frac{(266.4 - 299.7)}{11.74}\\\\[/tex]

       [tex]= \frac{(-33.3)}{11.74}\\\\= -2.83[/tex]

[tex]\to P = 0.002256\\\\\to \% = 0.23 \%[/tex]
