1.Easy
−250 gσ = ?X − Y

X is normal with mean 250 g and standard deviation 4 g; Y is independent and normal with mean 500 g and standard deviation 9 g. Find the standard deviation σ of the difference X − Y.

μX = 250 g, σX = 4 gμY = 500 g, σY = 9 g
σ = g
2.Easy
−3−2−10123zshaded area to the left of z = 0.6217

Drag z so that the shaded area under the standard normal curve, to the left of z, is 0.6217. Find z to two decimals.

A = 0.6217
z =
3.Medium
92.5118.75P = ?

The IQ scores are normally distributed with mean 100 points and standard deviation 15 points. What fraction lies between 92.5 and 118.75 points? Give P as a decimal.

μ = 100σ = 15x1 = 92.5x2 = 118.75
P =
4.Medium
192 kg190.4 kgT = X₁ + … + X₁₆?

The masses of boxes are independent and normal with mean 12 kg and standard deviation 0.8 kg. Find the probability P that the total mass of 16 of them exceeds 190.4 kg. Round z to two decimals.

μ = 12 kgσ = 0.8 kgn = 16> 190.4 kg
P =

The exam scores are normally distributed with mean 65 points and standard deviation 10 points. Drag the cut-off so the shaded top 80% is to the right of it. Find the cut-off x.

μ = 65 pointsσ = 10 points80%
x = points
6.Hard
μ = 32x = ?99%

The delivery times are normally distributed with mean 32 min and standard deviation 6 min. Find the value x below which 99% of them lie (the 99th percentile).

μ = 32σ = 6P = 99%
x = min
