−3−2−10123zshaded area to the left of z = 0.8599

Drag z so that the shaded area under the standard normal curve, to the left of z, is 0.8599. Find z to two decimals.

A = 0.8599
z =
2.Easy
40 mmσ = ?X − Y

X is normal with mean 120 mm and standard deviation 0.3 mm; Y is independent and normal with mean 80 mm and standard deviation 0.4 mm. Find the standard deviation σ of the difference X − Y.

μX = 120 mm, σX = 0.3 mmμY = 80 mm, σY = 0.4 mm
σ = mm
3.Medium
2039.2P = ?

The delivery times are normally distributed with mean 32 min and standard deviation 6 min. What fraction lies between 20 and 39.2 min? Give P as a decimal.

μ = 32σ = 6x1 = 20x2 = 39.2
P =
4.Medium
53.583P = ?

The exam scores are normally distributed with mean 65 points and standard deviation 10 points. What fraction lies between 53.5 and 83 points? Give P as a decimal.

μ = 65σ = 10x1 = 53.5x2 = 83
P =
5.Hard
μ = 32x = ?10%

The delivery times are normally distributed with mean 32 min and standard deviation 6 min. Find the value x below which 10% of them lie (the 10th percentile).

μ = 32σ = 6P = 10%
x = min
6.Hard
0.05 mm0D − d?

Hole diameters D are normal with mean 25.05 mm and standard deviation 0.02 mm. Shaft diameters d are independent and normal with mean 25 mm and standard deviation 0.02 mm. A randomly chosen shaft fits when D − d > 0. Find the probability P that it fits. Round z to two decimals.
