1.Easy
μ = 6577P = ?

The exam scores are normally distributed with mean 65 points and standard deviation 10 points. What fraction is above 77 points? Find P(X > x) as a decimal.

μ = 65σ = 10x = 77
P(X > x) =
2.Easy
μ = 6553.5P = ?

The exam scores are normally distributed with mean 65 points and standard deviation 10 points. What fraction is below 53.5 points? Find P(X < x) as a decimal.

μ = 65σ = 10x = 53.5
P(X < x) =

480 g475.8 gT = X₁ + … + X₁₂?

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 12 of them is below 475.8 g. Round z to two decimals.

μ = 40 gσ = 1.2 gn = 12< 475.8 g

4.Medium
400 kg401 kgT = X₁ + … + X₁₆?

The masses of bags of cement are independent and normal with mean 25 kg and standard deviation 0.5 kg. Find the probability P that the total mass of 16 of them is below 401 kg. Round z to two decimals.

μ = 25 kgσ = 0.5 kgn = 16< 401 kg

5.Hard
μ = 100x = ?75%

The IQ scores are normally distributed with mean 100 points and standard deviation 15 points. Find the value x below which 75% of them lie (the 75th percentile).

μ = 100σ = 15P = 75%
x = points
6.Hard
10 cm0X − Y?

The heights X of men and Y of women in a group are independent and normal: X has mean 180 cm and standard deviation 10 cm, Y has mean 170 cm and standard deviation 12 cm. Find the probability P that X is greater than Y. Round z to two decimals.

μX = 180 cm, σX = 10 cmμY = 170 cm, σY = 12 cm
