1.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
2.Easy
μ = 3229P = ?

The delivery times are normally distributed with mean 32 min and standard deviation 6 min. What fraction is below 29 min? Find P(X < x) as a decimal.

μ = 32σ = 6x = 29
P(X < x) =
3.Medium
105 s95.4 sX + Y?

X is normal with mean 60 s and standard deviation 5 s; Y is independent and normal with mean 45 s and standard deviation 4 s. Find the probability P that X + Y is more than 95.4 s. Round z to two decimals.

μX = 60, σX = 5μY = 45, σY = 4X + Y > 95.4 s
P =
4.Medium
167.85192P = ?

The heights of adult men are normally distributed with mean 178 cm and standard deviation 7 cm. What fraction lies between 167.85 and 192 cm? Give P as a decimal.

μ = 178σ = 7x1 = 167.85x2 = 192
P =

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.

μ = 100 pointsσ = 15 points30%
x = points
