Q.15) In a test on 2000 electric bulbs , it was found that the life
of articular make was Normally distributed with average life of
2040 hours and Standard deviation of 60 hours Estimate the
number of bulbs likely to burn for :
a) Between 1920 hours and 2160 hours
b) More than 2150 hours. Given that A(2) = 0.4772 , A(1.83) =
0.4664
16) Assuming that 2 in 10 industrial accidents are due to
fatigue. Find the probability that exactly 2 out of 8 accidents
will be due to fatigue.
Q.17) A factory manufactured 2000 electric bulbs with average
life of 2040 hours and standard deviation of 60 hours. Assuming
normal distribution find the number of bulbs having life

shafts have an average diameter 10.10 cm and a standard
deviation of 0.20 cm. Find the number of grinding machines
having product specifications for shaft diameters are between
10.05cm and 10.20cm. Given: A( 0.25 )= 0.0987 ; A(0.5)= 0.1915
