Statistics for Business

Chap 6-5 Continuous Probability Distributions A continuous random variable is a variable that can assume any value in an interval thickness of an item time required to complete a task temperature of a solution height, in inches These can potentially take on any value, depending only on the ability to measure accurately.

Statistics for Business
and Economics, 6e © 2007 Pearson Education, Inc. Chap 6-6 Cumulative Distribution Function The cumulative distribution function, F(x), for a continuous random variable X expresses the probability that X does not exceed the value of x Let a and b be two possible values of X, with a < b. The probability that X lies between a and b is x) P(X F(x) F(a) F(b) b) X P(a

Statistics for Business

Chap 6-7 Probability Density Function The probability density function, f(x), of random variable X has the following properties: 1. f(x) > 0 for all values of x 2. The area under the probability density function f(x) over all values of the random variable X is equal to 1.0 3. The probability that X lies between two values is the area under the density function graph between the two values 4.

Statistics for Business

Chap 6-18 The Normal Distribution ‘Bell Shaped’ Symmetrical Mean, Median and Mode are Equal Location is determined by the mean, μ Spread is determined by the standard deviation, σ The random variable has an infinite theoretical range: + to Mean = Median = Mode x f(x) μ σ (continued)

Statistics for Business

Chap 6-19 The Normal Distribution The normal distribution closely approximates the probability distributions of a wide range of random variables Distributions of sample means approach a normal distribution given a “large” sample size Computations of probabilities are direct and elegant The normal probability distribution has led to good business decisions for a number of applications (continued)
20.
Statistics for Business
and Economics, 6e © 2007 Pearson Education, Inc. Chap 6-20 By varying the parameters μ and σ, we obtain different normal distributions Many Normal Distributions

Statistics for Business
and Economics, 6e © 2007 Pearson Education, Inc. Chap 6-21 The Normal Distribution Shape x f(x) μ σ Changing μ shifts the distribution left or right. Changing σ increases or decreases the spread. Given the mean μ and variance σ we define the normal distribution using the notation ) σ N(μ ~ X 2 ,
22.
Statistics for Business
and Economics, 6e © 2007 Pearson Education, Inc. Chap 6-22 The Normal Probability Density Function The formula for the normal probability density function is Where e = the mathematical constant approximated by 2.71828 π = the mathematical constant approximated by 3.14159 μ = the population mean σ = the population standard deviation x = any value of the continuous variable, < x < 2 2 /2σ μ) (x e 2π 1 f(x)

Statistics for Business
and Economics, 6e © 2007 Pearson Education, Inc. Chap 6-26 The Standardized Normal Any normal distribution (with any mean and variance combination) can be transformed into the standardized normal distribution (Z), with mean 0 and variance 1 Need to transform X units into Z units by subtracting the mean of X and dividing by its standard deviation 1) N(0 ~ Z , σ μ X Z Z f(Z) 0 1
27.
Statistics for Business
and Economics, 6e © 2007 Pearson Education, Inc. Chap 6-27 Example If X is distributed normally with mean of 100 and standard deviation of 50, the Z value for X = 200 is This says that X = 200 is two standard deviations (2 increments of 50 units) above the mean of 100. 2.0 50 100 200 σ μ X Z

Statistics for Business
and Economics, 6e © 2007 Pearson Education, Inc. Chap 6-28 Comparing X and Z units Z 100 2.0 0 200 X Note that the distribution is the same, only the scale has changed. We can express the problem in original units (X) or in standardized units (Z) (μ = 100, σ = 50) (μ = 0, σ = 1)

The mean number of arrivals per hour is 15, so = 15 Three minutes is .05 hours P(arrival time < .05) = 1 – e- X = 1 – e-(15)(.05) = 0.5276 So there is a 52.76% probability that the arrival time between successive customers is less than three minutes
