[Solution] The average number of acres burned by forest and range fires in a large New Mexico county is 4,300 acres per year, with a standard deviation
Question: The average number of acres burned by forest and range fires in a large New Mexico county is 4,300 acres per year, with a standard deviation of 750 acres. The distribution of the number of acres burned is normal.
- Compute the probability in any year that more than 5,000 acres will be burned.
- Determine the probability in any year that fewer than 4,000 acres will be burned.
- What is the probability that between 2,500 and 4,200 acres will be burned?
- In those years when more than 5,500 acres are burned, help is needed from eastern-region fire teams. Determine the probability help will be needed in any year.
