Question

at least 1200  
(c) What proportion of the loads are between 600 and 1200? (Round your answer to three decimal places.)

less than 600     Fire load (MJ/m2) is the heat energy that could be released per square meter of floor area by combustion of contents and the structure itself. The following cumulative percentages are for fire loads in a sample of 388 rooms: 150 300 450 600 750 900 Cumulative % 0 19.2 37.7 62.3 77.1 87.0 93.6 1050 1200 1350 1500 1650 1800 1950 Cumulative% 95.3 98.2 98.6 99.5 99.6 99.8 100.0 Value 0 150 300 450 600 750 900 Cumulative % 19.2 37.7 62.3 77 Value

Explanation / Answer

B)

P(less than 600) = F(450) = 0.623 [ANSWER]

*************

P(at least 1200) = 1 - F(1050) = 1-0.953 = 0.047 [ANSWER]

***************

c)

P(between 600 and 1200) = F(1200) - F(450) = 0.982 - 0.623 = 0.359 [ANSWER]
