The lifetime of a certain type of battery is normally distributed with a mean value of 10 hours and standard deviation of 2 hours. Find the probability that a randomly selected battery has a lifetime greater than 12 hou g

And we can find this probability using the complement rule:

And in order to find these probabilities we can use tables for the normal standard distribution, excel or a calculator.  

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean".  

Solution to the problem

Let X the random variable that represent the lifetime of a certain type of battery of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

Where and

We are interested on this probability

And the best way to solve this problem is using the normal standard distribution and the z score given by:

If we apply this formula to our probability we got this:

And we can find this probability using the complement rule:

And in order to find these probabilities we can use tables for the normal standard distribution, excel or a calculator.
