Drag z so that the shaded area under the standard normal curve, to the left of z, is 0.3156. 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.
Drag z so that the shaded area under the standard normal curve, to the right of z, is 0.8238. Find z to two decimals.
Drag z so that the shaded area between −z and z under the standard normal curve is 0.9031. Find z to two decimals.
The mass X of a product from line 1 and Y from line 2 are independent and normal: X has mean 500 g and standard deviation 8 g, Y has mean 490 g and standard deviation 6 g. Find the probability P that X is greater than Y. Round z to two decimals.
The delivery times are normally distributed with mean 32 min and standard deviation 6 min. Find the value x below which 20% of them lie (the 20th percentile).
