Answer:
We should expect 818 chicks to hatch in 19 to 28 days
Step-by-step explanation:
Normal Probability Distribution
Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.
In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score of a measure X is given by:
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.
Normally distributed with mean of 22 days and standard deviation of approximately 3 days.
This means that [tex]\mu = 22, \sigma = 3[/tex]
Proportion between 19 and 28 days:
p-value of Z when X = 28 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 19.
X = 28
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{28 - 22}{3}[/tex]
[tex]Z = 2[/tex]
[tex]Z = 2[/tex] has a p-value of 0.977.
X = 19
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{19 - 22}{3}[/tex]
[tex]Z = -1[/tex]
[tex]Z = -1[/tex] has a p-value of 0.159.
0.977 - 0.159 = 0.818
Out of 1000:
0.818*1000 = 818
We should expect 818 chicks to hatch in 19 to 28 days
