120–240 mg/dl. The Food and Nutrition Institute of
the Philippines found that the total cholesterol level for
Filipino adults has a mean of 159.2 mg/dl and 84.61%
of adults have a cholesterol level less than 201 mg/dl
(www.fnri.dost.gov.ph/). Suppose that the total
cholesterol level is normally distributed.
a. What is the value of the cholesterol level that
exceeds 90% of the population? (8)
 b. An adult is at moderate risk if cholesterol level is
more than 226 mg/dl but less than 248 mg/dl. What
percentage of the population is at risk according to this
criterion? (6)

28 CIIT/FA19- FAIZAN Q.1. It is suspected that some of the totes containing

BME- AHMAD chemicals purchased from a supplier exceed the
115/SWL moisture content target. Assume that the totes are
independent with respect to moisture content.
c. Determine the proportion of totes from the
supplier that must exceed the moisture content
target so that the probability is 0.9757 that at
least 1 tote in a sample of 25 fails the test.
(3)
d. Find the proportion of at most 9 tots that
exceed the moisture content target. (use table
method) (3)
Q.2. The ABC Company supplies a supermarket
with groceries weekly. Experience has shown that 3%
of the total supply of the groceries in a given week are
defective. A manager of the supermarket decided to
check the number of defective items for a particular
grocery and took a sample of 105 items.
c. What is the probability that 2 or more of the
products are defective? (6)
d. Find the probability of 2 or more defectives
when 30% of the total supply of the groceries
in a given week are defective. (8)

29 CIIT/FA19- ALI ABBAS Q.1. In a manufacturing process that laminates

BME- several ceramic layers, 1% of the assemblies are
117/SWL defective. Assume that the assemblies are independent.
Determine the minimum number of assemblies that
need to be checked so that the probability that at least
one defective assembly is obtained exceeds 0.95.

Q.2. Cholesterol is a fatty substance that is an
important part of the outer lining (membrane) of cells
in the body of animals. Its normal range for an adult is
120–240 mg/dl. The Food and Nutrition Institute of
the Philippines found that the total cholesterol level for
Filipino adults has a mean of 159.2 mg/dl and 84.61%
of adults have a cholesterol level less than 201 mg/dl
(www.fnri.dost.gov.ph/). Suppose that the total
cholesterol level is normally distributed.
a. What is the value of the cholesterol level that
exceeds 90% of the population? (8)
b. An adult is at moderate risk if cholesterol level is
more than 226 mg/dl but less than 248 mg/dl. What
percentage of the population is at risk according to this
criterion? (6)
