Exercise Normal Distribution

The document describes a question about the probability of ball bearing diameters falling within or outside of specification limits. The ball bearings for an industrial sewing machine have a target diameter of 0.75 inches, with a lower limit of 0.74 inches and upper limit of 0.76 inches. Based on past data, the ball bearings have a normal distribution with a mean of 0.753 inches and standard deviation of 0.004 inches. The question asks to calculate the probability of the ball bearing diameter falling within certain ranges in relation to the target and specification limits.

Question: An industrial sewing machine uses ball bearings that are targeted to have a diameter of 0.75 inch. The lower and upper speci cation limits under which the ball bearings can operate are 0.74 inch and 0.76 inch, respectively. Past experience
has indicated that the ball bearings is approximatly normally distributed, with a mean of 0.753 inch and a standard deviation of 0.004 inch. What is the probability that a ball bearing a) between the target and the acual mean? b) between the lower
speci cation limit and the target? c) above the upper speci cation limit? d) below the lower speci cation limit? e) of all the ball bearings, 93% of the diameters are greater than what value?
Below you'll nd the answer to the problem.
