Suppose 4-year-olds in a certain country average 3 hours a day unsupervised and that most of the unsupervised children live in rural areas, considered safe. Suppose that the standard deviation is 1.8 hours and the amount of time spent alone is normally distributed. We randomly survey one 4-year-old living in a rural area. We are interested in the amount of time the child spends alone per day. Part (a) In words, define the random variable X.

A) the number of 4-year-old children that live in rural areas

B) the time (in hours) a child spends unsupervised per day

C)the number of people that live in rural areas

D)the time (in hours) a 4-year-old spends unsupervised per day

E)the time (in hours) a 4-year-old spends unsupervised per week

Part I: Give the distribution of X.

X ~ ____ (____,_____)

Part II:

Find the probability that the child spends less than 1 hour per day unsupervised.

Write the probability statement.

P_________

Answer:

D)the time (in hours) a 4-year-old spends unsupervised per day

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that 4-year-olds in a certain country average 3 hours a day unsupervised and that most of the unsupervised children live in rural areas, considered safe

X - the time (in hours) a 4-year-old spends unsupervised per day

X is N(3,1.8)

[tex]P(X<1) = P(Z<\frac{1-3}{1.8} \\=P(Z<-1.11)\\\\=0.1335[/tex]
