Question 1 The average number of miles (in thousands) that a car's tire will function before needing replacement is 71 and the standard deviation is 20. Suppose that 12 randomly selected tires are tested. Round all answers to 4 decimal places where possible and assume a normal distribution. a. What is the distribution of X? X ~ N( b. What is the distribution of a? ~ ~ N( c. If a randomly selected individual tire is tested, find the probability that the number of miles (in thousands) before it will need replacement is between 67.9 and 74.6. d. For the 12 tires tested, find the probability that the average miles (in thousands) before need of replacement is between 67.9 and 74.6. e. For part d), is the assumption that the distribution is normal necessary? O NoO Yes
