The weights of certain machine components are normally distributed with a mean of 5.19 ounces and a standard deviation of 0.05 ounces. Find the two weights that separate the top 8% and the bottom 8%. These weights could serve as limits used to identify which components should be rejected

The  weight that separate the top 8% by 5.2605 and the weight that separate bottom 8% by 5.1195.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

Mean,

Standard deviation,

We have to find the two weights that separate the top 8% and the bottom 8%.

Let x1 and x2 the two weights that separate the top 8% and the bottom 8%.

Z-value for p-value =0.08 =

For 8% bottom

For 8% top

p-Value=1-0.08=0.92

Z- value=1.41

Now,

(x1,x2)=(5.1195,5.2605)

x=30

step-by-step explanation:

i think the amount would be $140.62
