Drag z so that the shaded area under the standard normal curve, to the left of z, is 0.1401. Find z to two decimals.
Normal distribution worksheet with answers
X and Y are independent normal variables for the mass of a filled jar: jar plus contents: X has mean 250 g and standard deviation 4 g, Y has mean 500 g and standard deviation 9 g. Find the standard deviation σ of X + Y.
The masses of bolts are independent and normal with mean 40 g and standard deviation 1.2 g. Find the probability P that the total mass of 4 of them exceeds 162.4 g. Round z to two decimals.
X is normal with mean 12 min and standard deviation 1.5 min; Y is independent and normal with mean 20 min and standard deviation 2 min. Find the probability P that X + Y is more than 34 min. Round z to two decimals.
The exam scores are normally distributed with mean 65 points and standard deviation 10 points. Drag the cut-off so the shaded top 95% is to the right of it. Find the cut-off x.
The IQ scores are normally distributed with mean 100 points and standard deviation 15 points. Drag the cut-off so the shaded top 30% is to the right of it. Find the cut-off x.
