−3−2−10123zshaded area to the left of z = 0.7291

Drag z so that the shaded area under the standard normal curve, to the left of z, is 0.7291. Find z to two decimals.

A = 0.7291
z =
2.Easy
200 mmσ = ?X + Y

X and Y are independent normal variables for the length of part A plus part B in an assembly: X has mean 120 mm and standard deviation 0.3 mm, Y has mean 80 mm and standard deviation 0.4 mm. Find the standard deviation σ of X + Y.

μX = 120 mm, σX = 0.3 mmμY = 80 mm, σY = 0.4 mm
σ = mm

Drag z so that the shaded area between −z and z under the standard normal curve is 0.7887. Find z to two decimals.

A = 0.7887
z =
4.Medium
−3−2−10123zshaded area between −z and z = 0.6102

Drag z so that the shaded area between −z and z under the standard normal curve is 0.6102. Find z to two decimals.

A = 0.6102
z =
