Problem

The weights, WW grams, of kiwi fruit grown on a farm are normally distributed with mean 8080 grams and standard deviation 88 grams. The table shows the classifications of the kiwi fruit by their weight, where kk is a positive constant.

TinyPetiteExtraJumboMegaw<6666⩽w<7070⩽w<8080⩽w<kw⩾k\begin{array}{ccccc} \text{Tiny}&\text{Petite}&\text{Extra}&\text{Jumbo}&\text{Mega}\\ w<66&66\leqslant w<70&70\leqslant w<80&80\leqslant w<k&w\geqslant k \end{array}

One kiwi fruit is selected at random from those grown on the farm.

(a) Find the probability that this kiwi fruit is Large.

(3)

35%35\% of the kiwi fruit are Jumbo.

(b) Find the value of kk to one decimal place.

(4)

75%75\% of Tiny kiwi fruit weigh more than yy grams.

(c) Find the value of yy giving your answer to one decimal place.

解答

(a)

思路

展开

Large 包含 Extra、Jumbo、Mega，也就是 w⩾70w\geqslant70。

答题过程

展开 P(W⩾70)= P(Z⩾70−808)= P(Z⩾−1.25)= P(Z⩽1.25)= 0.8944.\begin{align*} P(W\geqslant70) =&\,P\left(Z\geqslant\frac{70-80}{8}\right)\\[3mm] =&\,P(Z\geqslant-1.25)\\[3mm] =&\,P(Z\leqslant1.25)\\[3mm] =&\,0.8944. \end{align*}

思路

展开

Jumbo 是 80⩽W<k80\leqslant W<k，概率为 0.350.35。由于 P(W<80)=0.5P(W<80)=0.5，所以 P(W<k)=0.85P(W<k)=0.85。

答题过程

展开

Since 35%35\% are Jumbo,

P(80⩽W<k)=0.35.\begin{align*} P(80\leqslant W<k)=0.35. \end{align*}

As P(W<80)=0.5P(W<80)=0.5,

P(W<k)=0.85.\begin{align*} P(W<k)=0.85. \end{align*}

The corresponding standard normal value is

z=1.0364.\begin{align*} z=1.0364. \end{align*}

So

k−808=1.0364.\begin{align*} \frac{k-80}{8}=1.0364. \end{align*}

Hence

k=80+1.0364(8)=88.2912.\begin{align*} k=80+1.0364(8)=88.2912. \end{align*}

Therefore

k=88.3.\begin{align*} k=88.3. \end{align*}

(c)

解法一

思路

展开

Tiny 是 W<66W<66。其中 75%75\% 大于 yy，所以 25%25\% 小于 yy。先算 P(W<66)P(W<66)，再取它的 25%25\% 作为 P(W<y)P(W<y)。

答题过程

展开 P(W<66)= P(Z<66−808)= P(Z<−1.75)= 0.0401.\begin{align*} P(W<66) =&\,P\left(Z<\frac{66-80}{8}\right)\\[3mm] =&\,P(Z<-1.75)\\[3mm] =&\,0.0401. \end{align*}

Since 75%75\% of Tiny kiwi fruit weigh more than yy grams,

P(W<y)=0.25(0.0401)=0.010025.\begin{align*} P(W<y)=0.25(0.0401)=0.010025. \end{align*}

This corresponds to approximately

z=−2.326.\begin{align*} z=-2.326. \end{align*}

So

y−808=−2.326.\begin{align*} \frac{y-80}{8}=-2.326. \end{align*}

Hence

y=80−2.326(8)=61.392.\begin{align*} y=80-2.326(8)=61.392. \end{align*}

Therefore

y=61.4.\begin{align*} y=61.4. \end{align*}
